Excerpt from America, Viewed Physically, Politically, Religiously: A Discourse, Delivered on Thanksgiving Day, November 24, 1864
Upon an elevation, higher than these empires, stood Israel, as the favorite of Heaven.
Nor was it in unhallowed boasting that this song of thanksgiving was sung. Human pride was lost in genuine gratitude of the heart. Indeed, inherent greatness in Israel, as a people, was not in any proportion to the extraordinary providences attending them.
Israel was fostered, guided, inspired, as werenone of the ancient empires. Great and holy men, such as they did not possess, were her coun selors and leaders. A national inheritance was waiting centuries for her possession. Miraculous experiences formed her history, such as Nineveh, Persia, and Babylon had never known.
Her historical record is too familiar to require a rehearsal. In our day it is a constant instructor of the mind and an inspirer of the imagination. Comparing it with that of the other governments of the earth, it was truly declared: He hath not dealt so with any nation.
The present is a repetition of the past. Ye believe there are to be observed divine dealings, and manifestations, and what may almost be called miracles in these later days - in our own times, and in the history of our own country. There are things connected with our national history worthy of our heartfelt and grateful remembrance.
