The prayer was offered by the Chaplain, Pastor Henry Friedrich of              
the Faith Lutheran Church. Senator Hoffman moved and asked                     
unanimous consent that the prayer be spread. Without objection, it             
was so ordered.                                                                
                                                                               
In the name of our Triune God, Father, Son, and                               
Holy Spirit. Amen. You have told us that                                       
righteousness exalts a nation, while sin is a reproach                         
to any people. Give us understanding that we may                               
discern what is right and just. Give us wisdom to                              
weigh each issue before us this day in that light.                             
Give us the integrity to do what is for the common                             
good. Give us the moral fortitude to say no to                                 
special interests which are not in the best interest of                        
all. Keep us from sin, from all that is immoral and                            
unjust. Where we have been mistaken, or made                                   
wrong judgments or decisions, give us the courage                              
to admit our wrongs. You have promised to forgive                              
all who repent of their sins. We claim that                                    
forgiveness won for us by Your Son, Jesus Christ,                              
who suffered the indignities and injustice heaped                              
upon Him as He bore our sins on the Cross. In His                              
precious name we pray.                       Amen.
