                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the following 
prayer:
  Almighty God, on this first full day of a new administration, we 
offer our heartfelt prayers for the leaders of this country and for the 
future of our Nation. May they and we humble ourselves before You and 
call upon Your name. May they and each of us seek Your face in our 
midst as we lift up our hearts to You. As a people, we confess the 
malice of our ways.
  Hear us in Your Heaven, forgive our sin, and heal our land. 
Consecrate this House that Your name may abide with us forever. Open 
Your eyes to us, and may Your ears be attentive to our prayer, for we 
pray in the strength of Your holy name.
  Amen.
