MILTON Y
a PRAYER

4 10 cease,
Wilt Thou open the doors of Hea-
ven and release
u Thine angels with flaming swords
: And stop the onrushing Nazi
. hordes?
Wilt Thou send to us another man
Like Joshua, who if needs be. to
command
The sun to stand still in Gideon,
And the moon in the Valley of
"Ajalon',
Until the battle is won?
Wilt Thou take the widows and
the orphans
Into thy tender, loving arms si
Guide them thru their hardships
And shield them from all harm?
Restore to us our blessed Peace;
May thy love with us abide.
Renew in US unfailing faith.
To trust in thee whate'er betide.
Dear Lord, crush this war that is
| rampant
In the world today, and then;
Let the Christian banners Of all
| vi churches 500 sia
Be unfurled, we pray.-"Amen"
| s9s MARY CROUCH QUIG.
