And this Is the benediction of the
Golden Rule by Rabbi Stephen S.
Wise:
Father. we are Thine and Thine Is
all we have and are. AS We break
bread. let 1t be with all Thy children.
Ely whatever name we call upon
Thee, let us call one another brothers
that none Is stranger
In Thy sight nor should be to our
hearts. Let us give in the measure
of others needs. Let us serve In
answer to Others hopes. Let us sac
riiice In obedience to Thy perfect
and hallowing will. Help us to do for /
the near and far even as Thou doest |
for all Thy children.
Thus may we feel Try presence
about us, and the grace of Thy bene- |
diction abide with us, which shall |
bless us and keep us. lifting Thy |
countenance upon US and granting us |
the peace Of understanding and fell |
lowship. AMEN"
