Almighty God, from whom all thoughts of truth and peace proceed;
Kindle, we pray thee, in the hearts of all men the true love of
peace, and guide with thy strong and peaceful wisdom those who take
counsel for the nations of the earth, that in tranquillity thy
kingdom may go forward, till the earth shall be filled with the
knowledge of thy love; through Jesus Christ our Lord. _Amen._
O Almighty God, who makest even the wrath of man to turn to thy
praise; We beseech thee so to order and dispose the issue of this
war that we may be brought through strife to a lasting peace, and
that the nations of the world may be united in a firmer fellowship,
for the promotion of thy glory and the good of all mankind; through
Jesus Christ our Lord. _Amen._
Eternal God, in whose perfect kingdom no sword is drawn but the
sword of righteousness, and no strength known but the strength of
love; So guide and inspire, we pray thee, the work of all who seek
thy kingdom, that the nations may find their security not in force
of arms but in that perfect love which casteth out fear, and in that
fellowship revealed to us by thy Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. _Amen._
