BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord. Across the uncertain ways of space and time our hearts echo those words, for the days are with us again when, at the gathering of the harvest, we solemnly express our dependence upon Almighty God.
The final months of this year, now almost spent, find our Republic and the nations joined with it waging a battle on many fronts for the preservation of liberty.
In giving thanks for the greatest har vest in the history of our nation, we who plant and reap can well resolve that in the year to come we will do all in our power to pass that milestone; for by our labors in the fields we can share some part of the sacrifice with our brothers and sons who wear the uniform of the United States.
It is fitting that we recall now the reverent words o f George Washington, Alm ighty God, we m ake our earnest prayer that Th ou w ilt keep the U n ited States in Thy holy protection,
and that every American in his own way lift his voice to Heaven.
I recommend that all of us bear in mind this great Psalm:
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall n ot w an t.
He maketh me to lie down in green pas tures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth m y soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his nam es sake.
Yea, though I w a lk th rou gh the valley of the shadow of death, I w ill fear no evil: for thou art with me; th y rod an d thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of m ine enem ies: th o u anointest my head with oil; m y cup ru n n eth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days o f m y life : and I w ill dwell in the house o f the L ord fo r ever.

Inspired with faith and courage by these words, let us turn again to the work
that confronts us in this tim e of national emergency: in the armed services and the merchant marine; in factories and offices; on farm s and in the mines; on highways, railways and airways; in other places o f public service to the Nation;
and in our homes.
NOW , THEREFORE, I, F R A N K L IN D.
ROOSEVELT, President o f the United States o f America, do hereby invite the attention of the people to the joint reso lution of Congress approved December 26, 1941, which designates the fourth Thursday in November of each year as Thanksgiving Day; and I request that both Thanksgiving Day, November 26, 1942, and New Y ea rs Day, January 1, 1943, be observed in prayer, publicly and privately.
IN W ITN E S S W HEREOF, I have here unto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States of Am erica to be a f fixed.
DONE at the City of Washington this eleventh day of November, in the year o f our Lord nineteen hundred seal and forty-tw o, and of the Inde pendence of the United States of America the one hundred and sixtyseventh.
F r a n k l in D R o o sevelt By the President:
