Our Nation and Government — Leaders of the Nation (3)
Raise up, we beseech thee, O Lord, to be leaders of our people, able men and such as fear thee, men of truth and hating covetousness, neither regarding persons nor seeking rewards; and so strengthen them by thy Spirit that in singleness of heart they may always endeavour to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, that the nation may be ordered in equity and righteousness according to thy will; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
