Around us rolls the ceaseless tide Of business, toil, and care, And scarcely can we turn aside For one brief hour of prayer. 2 Yet these are not the only walls Wherein Thou mayest be sought: On homeliest work Thy blessing falls In truth and patience wrought. Thine is the loom, the forge, the mart, The wealth of land and sea; The worlds of science and of art, Revealed and ruled by Thee. 3 Then let us prove our heavenly birth In all we do and know, And claim the kingdom of the earth, For Thee, and not Thy foe. Work shall be prayer, if all be wrought As Thou wouldst have it done; And prayer, by Thee inspired and taught, Itself with work be one. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. SIMON

Great creator still creating, show us what we yet may do. 2 We have ventured worlds undreamed of since the childhood of our race, known the ecstasy of winging through untraveled realms of space, probed the secrets of the atom, yielding unimagined pow’r, facing us with life’s destruction or our most triumphant hour. 3 As each far horizon beckons, may it challenge us anew, children of creative purpose serving others, hon’ring you. May our dreams prove rich with promise, each endeavor well begun. Great creator, give us guidance till our goals and yours are one. Scripture: Genesis 1:1-19 Tune Title: HOLY MANNA
