Second Regular Session, 92nd General Assembly
TWENTY-FIRST DAY, Thursday, February 12, 2004
The House met pursuant to adjournment.
Speaker Hanaway in the Chair.
Prayer by Reverend Donald W. Lammers.
(This prayer is attributed to Abraham Lincoln. Let it be our prayer this morning.)
God bless our native land; firm may she ever stand through storm and night; when the wild tempests rave, O Ruler of wind and wave, Thou Who art strong to save, be Thou her might!
For her our prayer shall be, our father's God, to Thee, on whom we wait; be her walls, holiness - her rulers righteousness, in all her homes be peace, God save the state!
Not for this land alone, but be God's mercies shown from shore to shore and may the nations see that men should brothers be, and form one family the wide-world o'er. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
The Journal of the twentieth day was approved as corrected by the following vote:
