                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, You have all authority in heaven and on Earth. You are 
Sovereign Lord of our lives and our Nation. We submit to Your 
authority. We seek to serve You together here in this Senate Chamber 
and in the offices that work to help make our deliberations run 
smoothly. We commit to You all that we do and say this day. Make it a 
productive day. Give us positive attitudes that exude hope. In each 
difficult impasse, help us seek Your guidance. Draw us closer to You in 
whose presence we rediscover that, in spite of differences in 
particulars, we are here to serve You and our beloved Nation together. 
In our Lord's name. Amen.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The distinguished Senator from Arizona is 
recognized.
