YOM KIPPUR by GEORGE ALEXANDER KOHUT

First Line: O LORD OF HOSTS, THOU ONLY ONE
Last Line: "THY WILL BE DONE!"
Subject(s): FASTS & FEASTS; GOD; JEWS; YOM KIPPUR; JUDAISM;

O LORD of Hosts, Thou Only One,
Art radiant in star and sun,
"Thy Will be done!"

All life is Thine ere life's begun,
All life is Thine when life is run,
"Thy Will be done!"

The scarlet thread of sin is spun,
Forgive us, Gracious, Holy One,
"Thy Will be done!"
