                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord God and provider of all good gifts, whenever Your people 
assemble to pray, we praise You as the source of all we have and are. 
Preserve in the Members of Congress grateful hearts for all You have 
given them and this Nation. With this gracious attitude, the tasks You 
set before Your people can be accomplished with humility. Decisions can 
be made with confidence in Your guiding wisdom. Accomplishments, though 
limited in our eyes, can be to Your honor and glory, and bring the 
world closer to attaining the goals of Your Kingdom here on Earth.
  As Your conscientious and grateful servants we pray now and forever. 
Amen.
