A Prayer for our
Elected Officials
O God, from whom all power comes,
by whose Divine will all must abide,
we thank You for our civil liberties and freedom,
for our opportunities and our privileges.
We beg of You to bless and enlighten
our elected officials, local, state and federal,
those newly elected and those returning,
that they may prove worthy of the confidence placed in them by their
fellow citizens.
May they be just and upright in their thinking,
honest in all their actions,
and ever be guided by a true conscience in the
legislation they propose or vote upon.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
