Chapter 6 - Standing Order No 28 - Prayers

1. The President, on taking the Chair each day, will read the following prayers:
   
   Almighty God, we humbly beseech Thee to vouchsafe Thy blessing upon this Parliament. Direct and prosper our deliberations to the advancement of Thy glory, and the true welfare of the people of our state and Australia.
   
   Our Father, who art in Heaven: Hallowed be thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil: For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever, Amen.
2. The President may nominate another member, or request the Clerk to read the prayers.
