Who shall dwell in your holy hills . Youve given us the answers. Those who walk upright and work righteousness, who speak the truth in their hearts will abide in your presence.

Fix their hearts on you, o god, that everything they think, say, and do will be under your lordship. Send your light and truth into this chamber as you guide our senators in these challenging times. We pray in your wonderful name. Amen. The presiding officer please join me in reciting the pledge of allegiance to our flag.
