                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray:
  Almighty God, smile on us and lift us with Your mighty strength. 
Develop in us an optimism that will withstand all challenges, bear all 
burdens, and catapult all obstacles.
  Guide the Members of this body, today, on Your path. Show them Your 
ways as You lead them by the power of Your truth. Help them to set 
priorities that will deliver captives and relieve the oppressed, 
causing ``justice to roll down like waters and righteousness like a 
mighty stream.'' Direct our Senators with their going out and coming 
in, inspiring them with a resolute determination to fulfill Your 
purposes on Earth. We pray in Your reverent Name. Amen.
