                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on us. We need Your strength. 
The wells of our own resources run dry. We need Your strength to fill 
up our diminished reserves--silent strength that flows into us with 
artesian resourcefulness, quietly filling us with renewed power. You 
alone can provide strength to think clearly and to decide decisively.
  Bless the Senators today as they trust You as Lord in the inner 
tribunal of their own hearts. You are sovereign of this land, but You 
are also sovereign of the inner person of each Senator. May these hours 
of discussion and debate bring exposure of truth and resolution. O God 
of righteousness and grace, guide this Senate at this decisive hour. 
You are our Lord and Saviour. Amen.
