The National Prayer
O, Eternal Father, in whose love all men are brothers, bless our Fraternity. Establish in our hearts the virtues of sacred honor, faith inspired courage, loyal fidelity to the ideals of brotherly helpfulness within this fraternity, and organized helpfulness to the world of men around us.
Strengthen our devotion to these sacred ideals through mutual encouragement and good example. Help us to learn the fundamental truth of our Holy Faith that “a brother who is helped by a brother is like a city walled.”
In a world which is torn apart by fraternal strife, make us a holy and powerful influence for peace and union of hearts, so that we may become, in the eyes of men about us, a living embodiment of the truth that Christ came to teach: “That they all may be one, as Thou Father, in Me and I in Thee, that they all may be one in Us.”
