Almighty God. A most merciful father to all mankind- may we humbly beseech thee to hear our dying petition to inspire those who must carry on in the world to see the utter folly and tragedy of war and to do all to abolish it. Fill their hearts with love for their fellowmen. And grant unto them the courage and wisdom to guide our world into a lasting peace. May our supreme sacrifice help them to remember the terrible cost of war and we shall not have died in vain. Amen
