Hymn 666.

\"God Bless Our Native Land\"

God bless our native land; Firm may she ever stand Through storm and night. When the wild tempests rave, Ruler of wind and wave, Do Thou our country save By Thy great might.

For her our prayers shall rise To God above the skies:

On Him we wait; Thou who art ever nigh, Guarding with watchful eye, To Thee aloud we cry. God save the State.

Hymn 665-\"AMERICA\"

My country, \'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty.

Of thee I sing; Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrim\'s pride, From every mountain side Let freedom ring.

Let music swell the breeze, And ring from all the trees Sweet freedom\'s song: Let mortal tongues awake: Let all that breathe partake; Let rocks theit silence break, The sound prolong

My native country, thee, Land of the noble free, Thy name I love;

I love thy rocks and rills, Thy woods and templed hills: My heart with rapture thrills Like that above.

Our father\'s God, to Thee, Author of liberty. To Thee we sing: Long may our land be bright With freedom\'s holy light; Protect us by thy might, Great God, our King.

THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS.

November 19, 1863

Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate-we can not consecrate-we can not hallow-this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devot-ion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

WE EXTEND A HEARTY WELCOME to the following organiza tions and their friends who worship with us this morning: Capt. C. G. Jackson Post, No. 159, G. A. R.: W. R. C. No. 136; Col. A. D. Seely Camp, No. 25, Sons of Veterans; Camp Jamisen, No. 408, Spanish-American War Veterans; Berwick Band: Military Cadets and Flower Girls.
