Is the Universe, Including Man, Evolved by Atomic Force?
Hymn 275
Scriptural Selection
Isa 45:5-8, 12; 38:4-8
Silent Prayer
The Lord’s Prayer with its spiritual interpretation
Our Father which art in heaven,
Our Father-Mother God, all-harmonious,
Hallowed be Thy name.
Adorable One.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy kingdom is come; Thou art ever-present.
Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Enable us to know, — as in heaven, so on earth, — God is omnipotent, supreme.
Give us this day our daily bread;
Give us grace for to-day; feed the famished affections;
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And Love is reflected in love;
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil;
And God leadeth us not into temptation, but delivereth us from sin, disease, and death.
For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.
For God is infinite, all-power, all Life, Truth, Love, over all, and All.

I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes
Psalm 121, text
Antonín Dvořák, music
I will lift up mine eyes to the mountains
from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from the Lord
who hath made the earth and the heavens.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved
nor thy steps to stumble.
He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, the keeper of Israel is He
that slumbers not nor sleeps.

Responsive Reading
Job 38:1 the, 2, 4–7, 18, 36, Job 42:1–3, Proverbs 2:6 the
. . . the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.
Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart?
Then Job answered the Lord, and said,
I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.
Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
. . . the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

Hymn 161
The scientific statement of being and its correlative scripture
There is no life, truth, intelligence, nor substance in matter. All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all. Spirit is immortal Truth; matter is mortal error. Spirit is the real and eternal; matter is the unreal and temporal. Spirit is God, and man is His image and likeness. Therefore man is not material; he is spiritual.
(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy, p. 468:9-15)
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
(I John 3:1–3)
