Thanksgiving proclamation

The interposition of divine providence in our favor hath been most abundantly and most graciously manifest-ed, and the citizens of these United States have every possible reason for praise and gratitude to the God or their salvation. Impressed, therefore, with an exalt ed sense of the magnitude of the blessings by which ve are surrounded, and of our entire dependence on that Almighty Being, from whose goodness and boun-y they are derived, the United States in Congress assembled do recommend it to the several states, to set apart a day of public thanksgiving, that all the people may then assemble to celebrate with one voice grateful hearts and united voices, the praises of their supreme and all bountiful Benefactor, for his numberless favors and mercies.

That he hath prospered the labor of our husband-men with plentiful harvests; and above all, that he hath been pleased to continue to us the light of the blessed Gospel, and secured to us in the fullest extent the rights of conscience in faith and worship. And while our hearts overflow with gratitude, and our lips set forth the praises of our great Creator, we also offer up fervent supplications that it may please him to pardon all our offenses, to give wisdom and unanimity to our public councils, to cement all our citizens in the bonds of affection, and to inspire them with an earnest regard for the national honor and interest, to enable them to improve the days of prosperity by every good work, and to be lovers of peace and tranguility. that he may be pleased to bless Us in our husbandry, our commerce, and navigation;
O smile upon our seminaries and means of education, to cause pure religion and virtue to flourish, to give Peace to all nations, and to fil the world with his glory.
