If both the National Anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance are going to be used at the beginning of a ceremony, the Pledge of Allegiance should come first. Normally, the Pledge of Allegiance is not used anymore because it has been ruled that it violates the rights of certain individuals.
National Anthem should be done first before the Invocation. To any Filipino before the 1990s, the answer would have been as simple as it would have been instinctive: obviously national anthem first, then invocation. This was the way it was always done; this is the way it is done elsewhere. Even the Vatican City State has a national anthem, and the Pope stands at attention at the playing of the anthem of his state with that of any state he happens to visit, and only afterwards proceeds to invoke God and bless the people, after the state rituals have been concluded. This is the way things should be.
