"May we bow our hearts? When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon, and the stars which You have set in place; what is man that You are mindful of him. The son of man that You care for him. You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings, and You crowned him with glory and honor. Oh, Lord, this day it is my prayer that You would continue to provide the necessary guidance to these men and women who serve so faithfully in this House, that You may grant them the wisdom that is necessary to do what is best, to do it for the most as they deem it advisable. May they be comforted in knowing that they made the decision that was the best one at this time. We ask that You may continue to give them strength and to be with their families as they are away from home. We ask for these, and many any other blessings in their dear Son's Speaker name. Amen."
"We'll be led in the pray...prayer by Representative Wyvetter Younge."
