This little book has been prepared for the pur-
pose of giving to the members of our own congre-
gation in convenient form an Order of Worship
adapted to their special needs. The author
shares With others the hope that ere long a Union
Prayer Book for Sunday services may be compiled
by some duly authorized committee, but until then
it seems inevitable that each congregation should
have its own special service. The arrangement of
this service is along traditional lines, but sufliciently
different from the Sabbath ritual to eliminate the
possibility of any one regarding the two as identi—
cal. This distinction We believe to be eminently
essential.
The aim of the author is to imbue the Sunday ser-
vice With the religious spirit Without yielding to it
the place in the synagog that historically belongs
to the Saturday Sabbath Worship.

HYMN.

MINISTER (then Choir): __
Blessed be he that corneth in the name of God.
We bless you from the house ~of God.
The Lord is God and He giveth us light. To
Him We bring our offering.
Thou art my God and I will praise Thee; Thou
art my God, I Will exalt Thee.
Yes, give thanks unto God for He is good; for
His kindness endureth forever. (Ps. cxviii,
26—29. )

Ilnhnmtinn.
God and Father, we ‘come into Thy house today
to praise Thee and to worship Thee. Thou art the
source of every blessing that is ours; the fount
of every joy that brightens life. Thou art the
inspiration of every thought that lifts man up
above the dross; of every impulse that marks the
human being as the child of God. Little indeed
were we without Thy help and Thy paternal guid-
ance. Vain were our every hope, empty our am-
7
bitions, fruitless our striving did’st Thou remove
Thy loving care from us. From the helplessness of
infancy to the helplessness of age Thou in Thy love
dost guide us.
And therefore, God, to Thee alone we lift our
hearts in praise and prayer. We thank Thee. for
Thy boundless grace to us and those we love. We
thank Thee for the days during the past week that
were bright and full of blessing. Help us fully
to appreciate such days. And even for the hours
that were dark and desolate, for such hours must
come into every life, may we have the courage to
thank Thee. Let us learn to take strength out of
our sorrows, and from affliction to gain wisdom.
And so through earnest self-inquiry may we learn
how far beyond our merit has been the blessing
Thou hast granted.
For this power of self-inquiry, Father, we thank
Thee. May we learn thereby our elements of
strength so that we use them wisely, conscientious-
ly, helpfully. May we learn also wherein we are
weak, so that we may direct our efforts to our bet-
terment.
O God, in Thy guidance we trust. Help us to
live pure lives, to do good deeds, to think upright
thoughts, to feel within us noble ambitions and to
order our whole lives righteously. Then shall We
find favor in Thy sight, our fellowmen will have
cause to respect us and before the judgment seat
of our own conscience we shall gain approval.
8
\Nith this prayer, Father, we enter Thy house
today. Incline Thine ear to it, we pray thee, and
grant it, Thou gracious God. AMEN.
Choir. Amen.

In this restful hour of worship we turn to Thee,
O God, who in wisdom hast founded the earth and
in love dost providefor those who dwell thereon.
By Thy laws and by Thy wise ordinances Thou
leadest man to duty and to truth. Therefore it is
meet that we meditate upon Thy teachings and
take to heart the commandments by which Thou
would’st have us live. May we realize increasingly
that the fear of God is wisdom and the avoiding of
evil is understanding. Mindful of thy wondrous
care of ourfa'thers through all the ages that they ‘

Emitting nf gvrripture.

' ‘The Bible contains the revelation of God’s will
to man. In its pages are gathered together the"
laws and precepts by which man should live and not
die. These laws, basic to every moral code, have
lost none of their potency through all the long ages
‘ that have passed since the Bible was compiled.
Fundamentally the Bible is a text book of religious‘
truth and as such we should regard it with reverence,
and take from it inspiration, light and guidance. At-
tend then, men and women, to the Scripture section
selected for your hearing this morning.
(The Scripture Lesson is then read.)
Choir :
God’s law is perfect, restoring the soul; the testi-
mony of God is true, making wise the simple. The
teachings of God are plain and bring gladness to
man’s heart; the fear of God is pure and lasts for-‘
ever. A goodly portion has been given unto you, do
not forsake it. It is a tree of life to those who cling
to it, and those who keep it are happy. Its ways are
pleasant and all its paths are peace.

God, who art all wisdom and all love, hear we be-
seech Thee, the prayer we make in behalf of those
whose hearts are heavy at the remembrance of some
great loss sustained. Heal them and console them.
Let them see light beyond the darkness that now
enshrouds them, and trusting in Thee, let them take
hope even in the time of their great sorrow.
Let us all, when trouble comes upon us, realize
that love is stronger than death and affection more
mighty than the grave. True love that links hs to
our dear ones while they remain with us on earth
shall continue to live, an immortal bond between the
living and the dead.
Let us honor our beloved departed by realizing the
more fully in our own lives the virtues that made
their lives beautiful and by perpetuating such of their
characteristics as stamped them a blessing to human-
ity. Then shall we worthily honor our sainted de-
parted and the word of the Prophet shall be ful-
filled: “Yichyu Mesecho.” “Thy dead shall live.”
With these thoughts and reverently remembering
our lost loved ones, rise, and in. the spirit of loving
- resignation, praise God’s name with me.

Of our great God and King;
Throughout the world which He has made,
Let man His praises sing.
Eternal life to man He gave;
Praised be His holy name,
Whose majesty all praise transcends,
Whose wisdom worlds proclaim.
To Israel, and to all mankind,
Who from this earth we miss,
May God grant mercy, grace and peace
And His eternal bliss.
May He who in His heavenly spheres
Preserveth peace and love,
Bestow on us and all mankind
His blessing from above.

ANTHEM.
(Ilnnrlnhing llilrayer.
Father, we are about to leave Thy house. May
our going be with Thy blessing. May we carry
hence influences and inspirations that shall help us
to meet bravely every duty of the‘ week to come.
May we not forget when we leave this house that we
are still in Thy presence and that Thine all seeing
eye is upon us at all times. In all our relations with
our fellow-men may we so conduct ourselves as to
deserve Thy commendation, and may we prefer the
reward of an approving conscience to worldly gain.
Let us in parting remember that the prayers we have
made are vain unless they be translated into resolu-
tion to make the coming week more purposeful
than the one that has gone before, and inspire
the determination to make our own lives an increas—
ing source of blessing to the men and women around
us. This is the purpose of our worship, for we ap—
proach Thee, only in the measure that in deeper sym-
pathy and sincere affection we reach out unto our
fellow-men. e
Let us go hence conscious of our duties as men
and as Jews. May we strengthen and sweeten and
20
sanctify every tie of family and friendship, so that
our homes become each a temple and every hearth a
shrine. May we be keenly alive also to our civic
duties, remembering that only in proportion as We
contribute .to the communal well-being dare we
hope for safety for ourselves and loved ones. For
every right we claim let us recognize a correspond-
ing obligation.
To our faith also, may we be loyal. May we prove
our pride in our heroic history, by being worthy of
the dignified part that the modern Jew is playing on
the stage of world history. Self respecting and true
to the ideals that have made the Jew the hero of a
thousand moral victories, may we by the integrity
of our lives and the purity of our motives gain and
hold the respect of our fellows and thus show to the
world that'sterling manhood is essential to recog-
nition as aJew.
Mayest Thou, O God, bless all Thy children who
aspire to realize the good that is in them. May Thy
blessing rest upon all who have gathered here to-
day, and upon all Thy children everywhere, who de-
. sire to know and do Thy will. May Thy benediction
be upon our beloved country and its institutions;
upon our homes, and our schools—nay upon every
‘ good cause and every noble undertaking, and upon
the men and the women who sponsor them.
Under Thy blessing may we live and work
throughout the week to come, aspiring ever toward
the highest, yet content to achieve day by day our
