PRAYER.
Help me, O God, to keep before ray eyes The larger visions of this war; to be Inspired each day by noble thoughts that rise Of duty, honour, Country, and of Thee.
Help me to think of war as one vast whole Of human effort struggling towards the right. Ever advancing nearer to the goal Of freedom, from the iron rule of might, Lost I forget, and in my sorrow see Only the face of him who goes from me.
—Anonymous Soldier’s Wife*.
Taken from the “News Letter” of the Woman’s Committee Council of National Defence.
