                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the 
following prayer:
  Bless us, O Lord: our lawmakers, our country, and each one of us, as 
we lift our prayers to You. Bless us and keep us that our walk this day 
would be blameless in Your sight.
  Guard us and guide us wherever we are called to serve today: in our 
offices, in our communities, or in our homes, that we would be eager to 
respond to You with our whole being. Would that we seek to live upright 
lives and keep Your laws. And when our steps go wayward and our 
thoughts are overcome by selfish intent, do not forsake us, but call us 
back that we would once again desire to live according to the 
righteousness You set before us.
  May Your judgment upon us today find us without fault or flaw, and 
may our praise to You this day and always be steadfast and shameless.
  In the strength of Your name we pray.
  Amen.
