The House assembled at 10:00 A.M.

Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:

Our Father God, Who knows every secret of our minds, in this moment of prayer we come to ask abundance of Your guidance and wisdom. Make our motives be above all suspicion. Cause us to make our word our bond. Let us be kind in our criticism of others, and slow to judge. Give us enough light for the next step, faith enough to move forward without fear, and endurance sufficient for whatever our challenge may be. Help us throughout this day that Your will may accomplish a more golden tomorrow.

Inspire us and make us strong for this day and every day. Amen.
