                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Our God and Father, in whom we find life everlasting, we praise You 
as the one and only God who brings order out of chaos. In our 
tumultuous world, You alone are changeless.
  Guide our Senators today. Work within them that they may choose to 
make You the fixed star of their hope. Empower them with unwavering 
faith to manage the unfolding challenges of our times. Forgive them for 
duties unattended, obligations unmet, and responsibilities ignored. 
Impart to them discernment to do their best and to find their highest 
joy in pleasing You.
  We pray in Your holy Name. Amen.
