                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Richard C. Halverson, D.D., offered the 
following prayer:
  Let us pray:
  * * * he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.--Matthew 
23:11.
  * * * by love serve one another.--Galatians 5:11.
  Almighty God, in this place of great power, we thank You for the many 
among the powerless who serve the Senate faithfully day in, day out. 
Thank You for those who maintain buildings and grounds, who prepare 
food and serve it, who clean our offices, who provide security and 
order as tourists crowd the building.
  Gracious God, let Thy blessing abide upon each of these, Your 
servants, and their families. Help them to understand that their daily 
tasks are indispensable to the work of the Senate. Help all of us to 
appreciate the importance of each other.
  We pray in the name of Him who is the servant of servants. Amen.
