Father of all great nations and ages, we recall the day when our country claimed its place among the family of nations; for what we have achieved we give you thanks, for the work that still remains we ask your help, and as you have called us from many peoples to be one nation, grant that, under your providence, our country may share your blessings with all the peoples of the earth. (The Collect from Independence Day Mass) AMEN!

What a beautiful prayer! I didn't go to Mass that day - in fact, I'm not sure if I've ever been to Mass on Independence Day. Thanks for sharing!
