                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Eternal God, Divine Providence has guided this Nation throughout its 
history.
  You have brought us through times of war and times of peace, days of 
hardship and days of plenty.
  Through all of our struggles You have brought to light great 
falsehoods and led us to embrace greater truths.
  Be with the Members of the 108th Congress and guide them in these 
unsettling times.
  Keep our Nation strong and, in Your loving care, keep us safe.
  Be close to those who are in most need of Your consolation and help.
  Listen to all who call upon Your holy name in prayer as they struggle 
to understand the signs of the times.
  We beg to know Your holy will now and forever.
  Amen.
