Our Father in Heaven,
bless the United States of America
and the brave men and women of our Armed Forces
who have left their loved ones
in defense of freedom.

Bless our lawmakers–
men and women who love to serve
and who will serve with love.
Place into their hearts
and into the hearts of their counselors
a moral compass to guide them to the right decisions.

O Lord,
protect
and inspire
these good, gifted, and gracious people.
Endow them
with courage,
fortitude,
wisdom,
and crown them
with humility
and compassion.
May the eternal teachings always be with them–
to act with accountability,
to relate with respect,
to be diligent and devoted,
to be a friend of truth.

May our beloved United States
be a place where dreams are worth dreaming,
a place where sacrifices are worth enduring
and where our tomorrows can be even better than our todays.
אָמֵן׃
Amen.
