Excerpt from Stephen Russell Mallory, (Late a Senator From Florida): Memorial Addresses, Sixtieth Congress, First Session, Senate of the United States, May 2, 1908; House of Representatives, May 3, 1908 Rev. Edward E. Hale, Chaplain of the Senate, offered the following prayer: The people that sat in darkness saw a great light; and to them who sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. Unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing in His wings. Repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Father of light, Father of love, in the midst of darkness Thou wert pleased to reveal Thyself to all sorts and conditions of men - to all Thy children. The Sun of Righteousness arises with healing in His wings. From day to day and from year to year this world is coming nearer and nearer to its God. And here are we, Father. Thy servants are sent to do Thy will, to enter into Thy service, that service which is perfect freedom, that Thy kingdom may come and Thy will may be done here on earth as in heaven. As the year begins, Father, as these Christmas solemnities go by, we come to Thee as so many children of the living God, asking Thee that we may be strong with Thy strength. that we may speak as His servants, that we may enter into Thy kingdom. Hear us and answer us as Thy children. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is done in heaven.
