                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Father, who withholds no good gift from those who walk 
uprightly, help our Senators this day to do Your will. Give them the 
grace to speak prudently when they must speak and to learn by listening 
and study. Inspire them to be unafraid of the difficult decisions, 
determined to act according to Your will, as they leave the 
consequences to Your providence.
  Lord, awaken them to their accountability to You, for our lives and 
for the leadership of this Nation. Reward their faithfulness with peace 
of mind and joyfulness of spirit.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
