inspire the American people, that through the difficulties of these 
days we might keep liberty and justice alive in our Nation and in the 
world.
  Give to us and all people a vivid sense of Your presence, that we may

each other, to live with each other, and to do good to each other. So 
shall we make our Nation great in goodness and good in its greatness.
  As the Members of this House return from a week of constituent 
visits, grant them wisdom and goodwill as they address the issues of 
days to come.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
