THE ZEBULON RECORD, ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28,1938 SOCIETY MRS. THEO. B. DAVIS, Editor Please send local or personal items to the RECORD shop by Tuesday night, if possible PRAYER FOR PEACE Dear Lord, the world has known so may wars, It bears such bitter, deep and lasting scars, Reach out Thy hand, O, Maker of us all; Bend down Thy listening ear, and hear our call. In this, and every other threaten ing hour, Only Thy might, dear Lord, only Thy Power Can change the hearts of men— can bid them cease Their avarice and greed—and bring us peace. Lord of the nations, let no nation reign To crush another. Free us from the strain Os l|lood and slaughter—let us not forget The loving kind example Thou hast set. God help us lift the Golden Rule so high That its bright words will flame against the sky: ‘Do Unto Others As Ye Would That They Do Unto You,” and then will come the day— The crushed will rise, the bound will find release, And we shall know the blessed ness of peace.
