MARSHAL FOCH’S DAILY PRAYER.
We were asked by a correspondent recently to give publicity to the prayer of the great French General to whose bravery, and sound judgment- the success of the Allies’ cause in the great war was largely, attributable. The Boston Post has published the subjoined under the above headingV-—‘‘o God, my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, accept my sufferings ,and my life if need be, for the sins of my past life; keep my heart clean and pure that I may be worthy to be near Thee. And every day be with me. God, my Saviour, in peril and in danger stand at my side; and then if death must come, welcome death, for I know that I shall never be more ready to die. O God, keep me and bless me. Let me go on during the rest of my life to fight for Thy holy cause. May Thy name be glorified. May my soul be saved. Amen.”
