[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 1] [House] [Page 52] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov] PRAYER Rev. Samuel Tialavea, Congregational Christian Church of American Samoa, offered the following prayer: God of the faith of our fathers and Lord of our homage, we embrace You and one another in heart and soul, thought and mind, giving You praise and trusting Your faithfulness. Bless this day and our activity in Your service. O Lord, help us to remember that proclamation from ages past, ``Where there is no vision, people perish.'' Enable us, therefore, to be visionary in our decisionmaking, particularly with those resolved in Your wisdom by the leadership of our Nation. Grant this Congress the ability to see, the faith to believe, and the courage to leap forward in their journey of determination for tranquility and peace, upholding those virtues by which all may benefit from in our ``home of the brave and land of the free.'' God of the Most High, may Your will be done, Your vision be known, and Your righteousness prevail, both now and forever. Amen. ____________________
