Clergy normally accept that they will lead prayers, however, it is still good manners to ask them prior to calling upon them if they could be prepared to lead a prayer. This gives them time to gather their thoughts. It also is helpful if you give the priest an idea of what the prayer is about. I.e "Father would you mind leading the grace when we serve the meal?", or "Father would you mind blessing the meeting before we start?", or "Father could you please say a prayer for xxx, he is ill/deceased/serving in the military/etc?"
It is common courtesy to introduce the priest, especially if he is not know by everyone.

In spoken conversation, you would call your priest "Father (last name)." In spoken conversation, you would call your bishop "Bishop (last name)" or "Your Excellency." Archbishops follow the same protocol as bishops. Cardinals are addressed as "Cardinal (last name)" or "Your Eminence."
The shorter the introduction the better. Something like "Father (last name), would you mind leading us in prayer?" or "Your Excellency, could you please open this meeting with a prayer?"

To effectively lead prayers incorporating scriptures, one should select relevant verses that align with the theme or intention of the prayer.

Use the scripture as a guide for the prayer, incorporating its message and language into the spoken words. This can help deepen the spiritual experience and connection with the divine during the prayer.
