Prayer by Reverend Rudy Beard.
Gracious God, how excellent is Your name in all the Earth. Bless with Your power and presence, these men and women of the House, and their staff. Give to them the measure of patience and insight they require to do the people's business. Protect them from giving up on the things that are important, and help them let go of those things that are trivial. Keep them, and their families, in this new day.
To You be glory and honor. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
