We give thanks for the democracy alive in our country and for the freedom to worship You.
Help the elected government and all in positions of power and authority to govern wisely and for the common good of all.
Help us all to recognize that humility and respect for democracy are characteristics which make
America a beacon for stability and prosperity around the world – characteristics which should be upheld, as they were fought for by ancestors who sacrificed so much for the freedoms we too often take for granted today.
Adapted from A British Prayer for Democracy
