"We need His guidance that this people may be humble in
spirit but strong in the conviction of the right; steadfast
to endure sacrifices and brave to achieve a victory of
liberty and peace"
Our strongest weapon in this war is that conviction of
the dignity and brotherhood of man which Christmas Day
signifies -- more than any other day or any other symbol.
Against enemies who preach the principles of hate and
practise them, we set our faith in human love and in God's
care for us and all men everywhere.
It is in that spirit, and with particular thoughtfulness
of those, our sons and brothers, who serve in our armed
forces on land and sea, near and far -- those who serve
for us and endure for us - that we light our Christmas
candles now across this continent from one coast to the
other on this Christmas evening.
We have joined with many other nations and peoples in
a great cause. Millions of them have been engaged in the
task of defending good with their life-blood for months
and years.
