Program for the Dedication Service of the Avondale Synagogue, Adath Israel Congregation (Cincinnati, Ohio)

September 11 1927

caption:
favor is for a lifetime: weeping may tarry for the night, but joy cometh in the morning. As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved. Thou, Lord, of thy favor hadst made my mountain to stand strong; thou didst hide thy face; I was confounded. I cried unto thee, O Lord; and unto the Lord I made supplication: What profit is there in my blood if I go down to the pit? Can the dust give thanks to thee? Can it declare thy truth? Hear, O Lord, and be gracious unto me; Lord, be thou my helper. Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing; thou hast loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness: to the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent: O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee forever."

ADON OLAM, CHOIR AND ASSEMBLY
"Lord of the world, He reigned alone while yet the universe was naught
When by his will all things were wrought, then first his sovereign name was known.
And when they all shall cease to be, in dread lone splendor he shall reign
