                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Holy God, show us Your high intent and keep us from ever being easily 
content. This is Your Nation; we are here to serve You. Just as Daniel 
Webster said that the greatest conviction of his life was that he was 
accountable to You, we press on with intentionality in the duties and 
deliberations of this day. We want to know what You desire in 
everything we do and say. Make us aware that You are the unseen guest 
at every meeting, the silent observer of all our actions, and the 
careful listener at every conversation. Heighten our awareness not only 
of Your presence but also of Your power. Give us courage to attempt 
what only You could help us achieve. Renew our enthusiasm, reinvigorate 
our vision, revitalize our patriotism, and replenish our strength. In 
the name of our Lord and Saviour. Amen.
