Our Nation and Government — The Government and Those in Authority (2)
Guide, we beseech thee, O Lord, all those to whom is committed the government of this nation; and grant to them at this time special gifts of wisdom and understanding, of counsel and strength; that they may consider all questions calmly in their deliberations, and act wisely and promptly, upholding what is right, abhorring what is wrong, and performing that which is just, so that in all things thy will may be done; for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord.
