                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Dear God, thank You for the grand assurances that inspire confidence 
and build courage. It is what we believe about You that brings us back 
to the work of the Senate with enthusiasm and expectation. You are Lord 
of all, the Source of wisdom and guidance, the Author of creative and 
innovative thinking, the Answer to life's most challenging problems. 
You choose and call leaders and equip them with insight and vision. 
This Nation has been given a special place in the family of nations to 
display democracy and maintain Your justice. In response, may the 
Senators choose to be chosen and believe they are blessed to be a 
blessing and rejoice in the realization that You will provide exactly 
what is needed as they work together for Your glory. You are our Lord 
and Saviour. Amen.
