                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the 
following prayer:
  Now thank we all our God, with heart and hands and voices, who 
wondrous things has done. In You, O God, the world rejoices.
  You, from our parents' arms, have blessed us on our way with 
countless gifts of love. You are still our God today.
  O bounteous God, through all our life, be near us. With ever joyful 
hearts, we pray Your blessed peace to cheer us.
  Keep us in Your grace, and guide us when perplexed. Free us from all 
ills in this world and the next.
  With thanksgiving and gratitude, our spirits soar. We are bold to 
pray to You, the one eternal God who was, is now, and shall be 
evermore.
  Amen.
