CLASS PRAYER By David Starr Dear God: Even as today has marked the sunset on a part of our life we raise our voices in hushed prayer for thy guidance in the future. Even now breaks the dawn of a new and infinitely more important part of our life. So we pray to thee to help us reach the heights we aspire to attain. Above all, dear God, whether we become great or small keep us ever humble for to be contemptuous of they fellow man is to have missed a great part of life. Help us remember not to be vain or proud but that just to be a man among men is thy will. Be it ever our motto to help those who cannot help themselves and always lend a helping hand to ease the life of someone not so fortunate as ourselves. Father, we would ask thy help that we may not live in vain. Our life will not be in vain if we could but leave something for those who pass our way that will make their life better for our having lived. When the time comes help us to see that we will not pass by our chance. Help us to know the good from the evil; guide our feet in the right paths; and when we are tempted to stray, even guide us in the homeward way. Ah, fleeting life how quickly art thou passed! Be it forever or just for today be it, dear God, as thou wouldst have it and above all thy will be done. Amen.
