Lord,
We come to You as a nation founded on faith.
Since the beginning of our country,
we have looked to You for blessings and guidance.
Now as we begin a new season, we do the same.
No matter what we may believe about politics or parties,
we know that in the end there is one Ruler over all.
You are in control of today, tomorrow, and eternity.
We desire Your continued favor on our great nation
and for You to help each of us follow You faithfully
as we seek to love our fellow Americans and the world.
The future is sure to bring challenges and victories, it always does,
and we ask You to be with us through whatever comes.
We thank You that America has always been, and will always be,
in Your hands.
Amen.
