- Hymn, "God Give Blessing to Our Leaders" (tune: ELH354)
1) God, give blessing to our leaders
In whatever place they stand
Both in safety and in dangers, Guard our people and our land!
Give them wisdom, strength, and might;
Fill their heart with gracious light,
Your true glory only pleasing, And in earthly joys increasing!
2) Let the married in their dwelling Be united with their God;
Faithfully and closely foll'wing In their love the Word of God.
In their life Your love will shine E'en in gentle discipline
That both young and old may gather
More to share Your bliss forever.Text: Hans Brorson

Scripture
I Timothy 2:1-7 Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time, for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am speaking the truth in Christ and not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
