                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Harry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O Maker of sea, land and air, speak to our hearts that we may cling 
to the things that cannot fail. Thank You for the gift of a new day, 
for borrowed breath and heartbeats. Be our pilot over life's 
tempestuous seas, and help us to strive more for faithfulness than 
success.
  Be with our Senators today. Use them to speed the day when people 
need not live in fear of one another. Empower them to give and not to 
count the cost; to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil and not to 
seek for rest; to labor and not to ask for anything, except the 
knowledge that they are doing Your will.
  We pray in Your Holy Name, Amen.
