INSTITUTE ODE A goodly thing it is to meet In friendship's circle bright, WVhere nothing stains the pleasure sweet ' Nor dims the radiant light. * No unkind word our lips shall pass, ; Nor envy sour the mind, But each shall seek the common weal, l The good of all mankind. ' MARY STEWART COLLECT ; Keep us, O Lord, from pettiness ; Let us be large in thought, in word and deed ; Let us be done with fault finding and leave off self seeking ; May we put away all pretense and meet each other face to face, without self pity and without prejudice ; May we never be hasty in judgment and always generous ; Let us take time for all things; make us grow calm, serene, gentle ; | Teach us to put into action our better impulses, straightforward and unafraid ; | | Grant that we may realize that it is the little things ' that create differences:; that in the big things of life we are one. And may we strive to touch and to know the great human heart common to us all, and O Lord God, let us not forget to be kind. INSTITUTE GRACE We thank Thee, Father, for Thy care, Food, friends and kindliness we share ; May we forever mindful be Of home and country, and of Thee.
