                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O Lord, our God, remove from our Senators all that is contrary to 
You. Take away all their doubts; cast off all resistance to Your 
leading. Instead, mold our lawmakers into Your image, giving them a 
willingness to sacrifice for others. Deliver them from anxiety. Infuse 
them with gratitude. Let Your peace guard their hearts and minds. May 
they always incline to Your will and walk in Your ways, as they 
dedicate themselves to the advancement of Your glory. Give them wisdom 
to do what is best for the safety, honor, and welfare of the Nation, 
that peace and happiness, truth and justice, purpose and piety may be 
established among us for all generations.
  We pray in Your wonderful Name. Amen.
