                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  As the 111th Congress reassembles to meet its constitutional 
commitments in its second session, may the prophetic cry of Israel, 
from the prophet, be heard in the hearts of all Members and in the 
attitude of all America's people:
  As the Lord has called you
  for the victory of justice,
  I have grasped you by the hand.
  I formed you and set you
  as a covenant of the people;
  a light for all the nations.
  Accomplish great deeds in and through us, Lord, and make these days a 
time of great promise and fulfilled blessings. Amen.
