One Minute Speech Given in Recognition of the Guest Chaplain:
Opening Prayer Given by the Guest Chaplain:
O gracious God, You, who created us and all the universe, are our refuge and our steadfast hope. Giving You thanks, we pray now that You continue to send Your blessing down on all the people of this land.
Send the light of Your wisdom to shine forth in the actions of all those who inhabit this, the people's House, in all the deliberations of the whole Congress, and in all the proceedings of our government.
Strengthen our commitment to build a better nation and world in the present and into the future––a nation and world of justice and harmony. Gracious God, help us to live up to this Nation's highest principles.
For this, and all that we pray, we know that You are always with us, Lord, and will always accomplish that which is good for our welfare and for Your glory and honor.
We ask this in Your holy name, O Lord. Amen.
