Rabbi Joshua Davidson, Temple Beth El of Northern Westchester,
Chappaqua, New York, offered the following prayer: O God, source of the spirit of living things, You created humanity with all its diversity in Your image and placed us upon this Earth to tend it, guiding us along whichever spiritual path we call our own toward goodness and peace. In this great Hall where dreams come true, we ask Your blessing upon these men and women, these representatives of the people. They have devoted their lives to our welfare. Strengthen them with Your courage. Inspire them as they answer Isaiah's call to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, to lift up those in this land and in all lands who cannot stand on their own. In this Chamber of debate, may every debate be for the sake of justice, and may justice always be tempered with compassion. May this House be home to the hopes and aspirations of every American, and may America shine as an example to all the world. Amen.
