祝福我們的土地,讓我們享有正直的行業,
誠實的教育和生活方式。

及各種邪惡的行為中拯救我們。
讓我們來自許多不同的背景和國家的人,
成為團結的人民,有著同一目的和願景。
賜給我們的政府智慧和惻隱之心
使我們的土地享有正義與和平。
繁榮的時候,求祢帶領我們去懂得感恩,
遇到艱難的時間,求祢引導我們加深對祢的信賴。

A Prayer for Canada Day
O Lord, make us mindful of your generosity,
and glad to do your will.
Bless our land with honest industry,
truthful education, and an honorable way of life.
Save us from violence, discord, and confusion; from pride, arrogance,
and from every evil course of action.
Make us, who come from many different backgrounds and countries,
a united people - one in purpose and vision.
Give our government a spirit of wisdom and compassion
that there may justice and peace in our land.
When times are prosperous, lead us to thanksgiving,
and when times are troubled, lead us to a deepening trust in you.
All this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
