MAIN LABOR DAY PRAYER By WILLIS HUGH GERMANY Lora, we thank ‘fhee that we are a laboring people, in a land where labor is honorable, and amongst our brothers who labor. ‘We read that our Lord Christ, was a laboring man, growing weary in the days toll. We thank Thee that Thou dost not distinguish us according to creed or color, rich or Poor, but hast made of one blood all nations that dwell upon the face of the earth, and dost admit into the brotherhood of labor ‘everyone who contributes ‘toward the happiness and succoss of humanity. This is our day of celebration. May Thy grace and heavenly benediction be upon us, Forgive our sins and negiect. May the thought of Thee in the days ahead inspire us to better workmanship. May the remembrance of Thee in- spire us'\&10 employ that we may not forget the human element, but always look upor! our workers as brothers beloved. Grant unto us today a renewal of our vision of a new. order, where, in reality, the will of God will be done on earth as it is done in_ heaven. Remember our nation in mercy. Guide us, lest we forget our in- dividual and- national responsibill- ty. And may ye unselfishly labor for the coming of that new order until our day is finished. We plead this, in Christ's name.
