A prayer offered by Rev. Jacob Douche at the commencement of First Continental Congress meeting on Sept 7, 1774. “O Lord our Heavenly Father, high and mighty King of kings, and Lord of lords, who from your throne behold all the dwellers on earth and reigns with power supreme and uncontrolled over all the Kingdoms, Empires and Governments; look down in mercy, we beseech you, on these our American States, who have fled to you from the rod of the oppressor and thrown themselves on your gracious protection, desiring to be henceforth dependent only on you.”[3]
