We Thank You That We Were Born In This New Historical Age

Father!
Please let us become object partners
with whom you can share
your absolute content.

We earnestly hope and desire, Father,
that you will let us become your children
who are struggling
to become those kinds of people.

The world of hope of tomorrow
is approaching us.

We must know
that this nation of tomorrow
is coming to us
as a nation that can be boasted
about throughout all of history,
a nation that will do things
no advanced nation can do.

And we must know the fact
that the people of this nation
are a people who are determining
to be victorious in front of all nations,
and all people, while holding up a banner
of the liberation of the world.

Please let us know
that it is the Unification Movement
that is demanding and presenting
that day by longing for
that day of liberation.

When we feel that, in the midst of that
we are the responsible people,
we must offer thanks to the entire universe
that we were born with that kind of responsibility
which comes only once
in the entire history of humankind.

And we must offer thanks
that we have the destined relationship of parents.

We must offer thanks that we were born in an age
when we can bequeath a new standard of value,
even though we were a group
that did not know the path we had to go.

We must understand this awesome mission
of having to become beings of your character
and central beings of harmony.

We must understand the fact
that if we stand in the position
of becoming people of character
who are able to do that,
and of becoming substantial beings of love
who are able to do that,
then your Will becomes my will,
and my will becomes your Will.

We must understand the awesome truth
that in the day that you and we become one
like that and have a destined relationship
internally and externally,
the power that can bring the liberation
of the entire universe is realized.

And we earnestly hope and desire
that you will allow us to know
that the historical and universal mission
is on our shoulders,
and that you will allow us
to be people who are able
to march forward powerfully.

We are earnestly asking that you will allow us
to fulfill the duty of loyalty
and to fulfill the duty of filial piety
in relation to you
by becoming central beings of harmony
as we go this path.

We have humbly prayed all these things
in the name of the True Parents. Amen.
