O God who loves us, on this Independence Day, we pause to thank You for the blessings of liberty, peace, and the pursuit of happiness. We honor the sacrifices of those who secure our freedoms and protect our lives, and we ask that You watch over them.
Guide our nation’s leaders with wisdom and compassion. Heal our divisions, and help us to build a society rooted in justice, unity, and mutual respect for all people. May we use our freedom to serve one another and strive for the common good.
