                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  From the rising of the Sun to its setting, O God, Your Name is great 
among the nations. Thank You for the wonder of Your grace. Today, help 
our Senators to be energized by Your amazing grace. May this favor 
enhance their talents and impart to them the wisdom to choose the right 
path. As they walk on the road that glorifies You, help them to use 
their individual abilities to supplement the talents of their 
colleagues, producing a bipartisan harvest of accomplishments. May they 
commit themselves this day to Your care, for You are their mighty rock 
and fortress. Lord, lead and guide them so Your Name will be honored. 
We pray in the Redeemer's Name. Amen.
