During an Installation for my Assembly (and perhaps others in California), the Worthy Advisor-elect has the option of choosing a Bible bearer to carry the Bible into the Assembly room, escorted by a Marshal. This girl is sometimes a Rainbow Girl (from another Assembly, generally), but could be a non-Rainbow friend or relative of the WA-elect instead. (It could even be an adult, I suppose!) After carrying the bible in and setting it down on the Recorder's desk, the bible bearer would be seated on the sidelines, usually close to the desk.

The following is the prayer the bible bearer recited as she was escorted into the room. It was timed to start when she took her first step into the room, and end just as she stopped at the Recorder's desk to set the bible down.

Bible Prayer - author unknown

We'll travel together,
my bible and I,
down the trail of Rainbow,
as the days go by.
I need your sweet friendship,
your message of love,
painting the pathways
to beauty above.
May the light of the spirit
your pages unfold,
and daily reveal
your treasures of gold.
Oh white light of promise,
to you I'll be true,
and your teachings of Rainbow
will carry me through.

Do you have a similar prayer, or some sort of bible escort for Installation or some other event? Then please take a few minutes and email it to me! Please identify the author, if known, with name, assembly name & number, jurisdiction, etc. If the author is an active Rainbow girl, her last name will not be used. Author's credit will be by their name and jurisdiction ONLY, unless otherwise specified.
