Can you please give me an opening prayer for a company talk?
I'm having a hard time thinking of the contents of the prayer. Your help will be very much appreciated.

The Lord's Prayer...Our Father, etc.

Or the Serenity prayer (i think that's the name) Lord, teach me to accept the things that I cannot change....etc.

Why not just pray a blessing over the meeting? You know, "Lord, please bless this meeting and help us have a productive time."

May my relatives be well, happy, and peaceful.
May my friends be well, happy, and peaceful.
May the indifferent persons be well, happy, and peaceful.

May all beings be well, happy, and peaceful.

I'm a Christian and believe in the power of prayer, but I'm not sure whether it's appropriate to begin a company talk that way. How about an inspirational poem instead?

this is by the poet Mary Oliver so promise you'll give her credit:

The Summer Day


Who made the world?
Who made the swan, and the black bear?
Who made the grasshopper?
This grasshopper, I mean--
the one who has flung herself out of the grass,
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down--
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.
Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.
I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is it you plan to do
With your one wild and precious life?

Mary Oliver

unless the company is in such bad shape that you think prayer is the only answer, i don't understand prayer at a business meeting. another exception might be that the company is one of these so-called christian organizations meeting to count the money they've scammed from fools.

If it a business environment im not sure how appropriate a "prayer" is considering you may have people from varied/diverse religious backgrounds and it is not appropriate to force them to participate in prayer. Religion has no place in the workplace unless its a religious affiliation.

I guess if you work for a small company and are SURE nobody would be offended then go for it but i still dont think its proper "work etiquitte"
