In which two sentences from the passage does the speaker create a tone of appreciation and thanks?

God grant that in our pride of the hour, we may not forget the hard tasks that are still before us; that we may approach these with the same courage, zeal, and patience with which we faced the trials and problems of the past four years.
The thoughts and hopes of all America—indeed of all the civilized world—are centered tonight on the battleship Missouri.
Our first thoughts, of course—thoughts of gratefulness and deep obligation—go out to those of our loved ones who have been lost in this terrible war.
Only the knowledge that the victory, which these sacrifices have made possible, will be wisely used, can give us any comfort.
To all of us there comes first a sense of gratitude to Almighty God who sustained us and our Allies in the dark days of grave danger, who made us to grow from weakness into the strongest fighting force in history, and who has now seen us overcome the forces of tyranny that sought to destroy His civilization.
