                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the 
following prayer:
  Holy Lord, in this moment in time, in all times, may we bless You. 
May our praise for You be continually in our mouths and may all that 
our souls boast for boast in You, O Lord. May our words magnify You, 
that all would know of our love for You and would then desire to exalt 
Your name with us.
  We need only remember that when we seek You, You answer us. By Your 
grace, You deliver us from all our fears. We need only to look to You, 
and our faces will be radiant with Your light. In light of Your mercy, 
the darkness of our shame disappears.
  Attend to us this day. Encamp Your angels around us. Deliver those 
who fear You from the snares of those who would do us harm. Save us 
from every trouble we will face.
  Then may we taste and see that You, O Lord, are good. Happy are we 
when we take refuge in You.
  With Your name on our lips, we offer to You our prayers for this day.
  Amen.
