    Alaskans, I offer the following prayer.                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                
    Keep us, Oh God, from pettiness.  Let us be large in thought,                                                               
    in word, in deed.  Let us be done with fault-finding and leave                                                              
    off self-seeking.  May we put away all pretense and meet each

    May we never be hasty in judgment and always generous.  Let                                                                 
    us take time for all things; Make us to grow calm, serene,                                                                  
    gentle.  Teach us to put into action our better impulses,                                                                   
    straight-forward and unafraid.  Grant that we may realize it is                                                             
    the little things that create differences, that in the big things of                                                        
    life, we are at one.  And may we strive to touch and to know                                                                
    the great, common human heart of us all.  And Oh Lord God,                                                                  
    let us forget not to be kind.
