Psalm 136 Thanksgiving to God for His Enduring Mercy

Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
2 Oh, give thanks to the God of gods!
For His mercy endures forever.
3 Oh, give thanks to the Lord of lords!
For His mercy endures forever:
4 To Him who alone does great wonders,
For His mercy endures forever;
5 To Him who by wisdom made the heavens,
For His mercy endures forever;
6 To Him who laid out the earth above the waters,
For His mercy endures forever;
7 To Him who made great lights,
For His mercy endures forever—
8 The sun to rule by day,
For His mercy endures forever;
9 The moon and stars to rule by night,
For His mercy endures forever.
10 To Him who struck Egypt in their firstborn,
For His mercy endures forever;
11 And brought out Israel from among them,
For His mercy endures forever;
12 With a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm,
For His mercy endures forever;
13 To Him who divided the Red Sea in two,
For His mercy endures forever;
14 And made Israel pass through the midst of it,
For His mercy endures forever;
15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea,
For His mercy endures forever;
16 To Him who led His people through the wilderness,
For His mercy endures forever;
17 To Him who struck down great kings,
For His mercy endures forever;
18 And slew famous kings,
For His mercy endures forever—
19 Sihon king of the Amorites,
For His mercy endures forever;
20 And Og king of Bashan,
For His mercy endures forever—
21 And gave their land as a heritage,
For His mercy endures forever;
22 A heritage to Israel His servant,
For His mercy endures forever.
23 Who remembered us in our lowly state,
For His mercy endures forever;
24 And rescued us from our enemies,
For His mercy endures forever;
25 Who gives food to all flesh,
For His mercy endures forever.
26 Oh, give thanks to the God of heaven!
For His mercy endures forever.

...............A National Thanksgiving................
Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me "to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:"
Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favor, able interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us. And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally, to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.
-------Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the 3rd day of October, A.D. 1789,-------G.Washington

Proclamación de Acción de Gracias
Nueva York, 3 de octubre de 1789
Por el Presidente de los Estados Unidos de América. una Proclamación.
Mientras que es deber de todas las naciones reconocer la providencia del Dios Todopoderoso, obedecer su voluntad, agradecer sus beneficios y humildemente implorar su protección y favor, --- y mientras ambas Cámaras del Congreso lo han solicitado por su Comité conjunto. "Recomendar al pueblo de los Estados Unidos un día de acción de gracias y oración para ser observado al reconocer con agradecimiento los muchos favores de Dios Todopoderoso, especialmente al brindarles una oportunidad pacífica para establecer una forma de gobierno para su seguridad y felicidad."

Ahora, por lo tanto, recomiendo y asigno el jueves 26 de noviembre próximo para que el pueblo de estos estados lo dedique al servicio de ese gran y glorioso Ser, que es el autor benéfico de todo lo bueno que fue, eso o aquello. será, para que todos podamos unirnos para darle a él nuestro sincero y humilde agradecimiento, por su amable cuidado y protección de la gente de este país antes de convertirse en nación, por la señal y las múltiples misericordias, y las interposiciones favorables de su Providencia que experimentamos en el curso y la conclusión de la guerra reciente —por el gran grado de tranquilidad, unión y abundancia que hemos disfrutado desde entonces— por la manera pacífica y racional, en la que hemos sido capaces de establecer constituciones de gobierno para nuestra seguridad y felicidad, y particularmente el nacional que se instituyó recientemente, por la libertad civil y religiosa con la que somos bendecidos; y los medios que tenemos para adquirir y difundir conocimiento útil; y, en general, por todos los grandes y variados favores que ha tenido el placer de conferirnos.

Y también para que podamos unirnos de la manera más humilde al ofrecer nuestras oraciones y súplicas al gran Señor y Gobernante de las Naciones y suplicarle que perdone nuestras transgresiones nacionales --- para permitirnos a todos, ya sea en estaciones públicas o privadas, realizar nuestras diversas y deberes relativos de manera adecuada y puntual --- para que nuestro gobierno nacional sea una bendición para todas las personas, al ser constantemente un gobierno de leyes sabias, justas y constitucionales, ejecutadas y obedecidas de manera discreta y fiel --- para proteger y guiar a todos los Soberanos y Naciones (especialmente tales como nos han mostrado amabilidad) y bendecirlos con buen gobierno, paz y concordia — Para promover el conocimiento y la práctica de la verdadera religión y virtud, y el aumento de la ciencia entre ellos y nosotros— y en general para otorgar a toda la Humanidad tal grado de prosperidad temporal como solo él sabe que es el mejor.

Dado bajo mi mano en la ciudad de Nueva York el tercer día de octubre del año de nuestro Señor 1789.

What a wonderful world!

"May God grant you always...
A sunbeam to warm you,
a moonbeam to charm you,
a sheltering Angel so nothing can harm you,
Laughter to cheer you.
Faithful friends near you.
And whenever you pray, Heaven to hear you."
-- An Irish Blessing

Whenever you find you are on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect

                     --- Mark Twain

We have never observed a great civilization with a population as old as the United States will have in the twenty-first century; we have never observed a great civilization that is as secular as we are apparently going to become; and we have had only half a century of experience with advanced welfare states...Charles Murray
