     We are gathered here today, at this moment, with great                                         
     reverence to You, our Lord and Master.  We seek Your divine                                    
     guidance as we struggle through these last few days of our                                     
     civic responsibilities.                                                                        
                                                                                                    
     You made us, one and all, what we are.  You made us in Your                                    
     image and endowed us with individual traits and You have                                       
     guided us through our separate walks of life, good and bad.                                    
                                                                                                    
     Lord, forgive us for our impatience and occasional breaks of                                   
     selfishness and anger.  Place Your calming hand over this                                      
     small building and settle our troubled souls.  As we finish our                                
     work at hand, let our product be good for all we serve.  We                                    
     ask this in the Name of Jesus, the Christ.  Amen.
