q LMIGHTY GOD, Father Of all mankind at
~ the end Of year in which malice has
so often thwarted love, we join the prayers Of
all Thy children around the world for peace,
the elevation Of justice and of brotherhood.
Thou Creator, Possessor Of all things,
Who didst make the earth for the races Of
men and didst set bounds for their habitation,
forgive us our greed as we repent of our sin,
and restore to all hearts the recognition Of
the transcendent right Of human life to live
Open our eyes, we beseech Thee, to the
dignity Of labor, the sacredness of human
service, and the privileges Of production, that
nation may join nation and man may join
man justly, in honest work to replenish
devastated earth.
Quicken the sympathy Of hearts made
dull by reports and sights Of suffering, incom-
prehensible and needless
Call us again that we may bow before
the eternal laws of creation, putting aside
malice, envy, covetousness and brutality, to
enter into the peace of the sons Of the Most
High.
Hasten by Thy gracious providence and
by the consecrated efforts of Thy children
the coming of Thy worldwide kingdom where
justice, mercy and love shall rule the hearts
and hands of men,
Create in us, O Lord, clean hearts, and
renew right spirits for the coming year.
This we ask in The spirit of Jesus Christ,
our only Hope.
Amen
