"God Save The King" What is the particular significance of our National anthem? Is it mere nationalism and that, perhaps, -of a selfish or even aggressive and mili- tant :type? By no means,. The , Na- tional Anthem is a prayer sung - as a hymn. It is the prayer of "a people who acknowledge God. .and express their faith in His .-providence. Thiel anthem concerns whom? "Why, the King," you. reply. This is true, but the King in the British Umpire is more; than a wean; he, is a symbol. The King represents the pe'op1e, re- presents the'nation.. He l§ the first citizen of the -Empire and Lae symbol of 111 for which -the Empire stands. 1n singing this hymn we do pray for' the King personally, but more we pray for the King as representing the People and Empire of which she is the symbol. When. the french cry, "Vive la France," and the Britieh, "Long Live the King" or "God. Soave the King," they wish much the same thing for their respective empires. Every Christian man., therefore; will be ready to pray that the King and Em- pire, so long as t'h:e nation is Chris- tian in spirit and purpose, may be. victorious, happy, glorious and icing !ce titinue to exist. There hem) reason to think of th,e National Anther.). as a barrack room song •of bloodthirsty, warriors. It Is a Christian prayer for the safety of Kfng and people; for the safety of our homes, our freedoms and our religion. And let Christian people reclogriize the ireeportai t part they have to play in building Up the spirit and ideals of this great Empire. IP they do not wish the Empire to perish, then they must not fail in their task. Thus we pray, -"God Save the King," ?or the Ring is the symbol of the Empire„ end of 'all tit'at it means to us—(Oontr;ibuted by On;Monday eeening•.MI's, 3. A.
