PAUL HARVEY'S ON-AIR PRAYER

"Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and
to seek your direction and guidance."

"We know Your Word says, "Woe to those who call evil good," but that is
exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and
reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the
lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. We have killed
our unborn and called it choice. We have shot abortionists and called it
justifiable. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it
building self-esteem. We have abused power and called it politics. We
have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. We have
polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of
expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers
and called it enlightenment. Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts
today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free. Amen!"

Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program, "The
Rest of the Story," and received a larger response to this program than
any other he has ever aired. With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep
over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again
can be called "One nation under God."
