                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, ruler of history and the nations, we praise You, we 
adore You, we magnify Your holy Name. May Your presence be felt in our 
midst today, guiding our thoughts and ordering our steps.
  Permit the Members of this body to receive a fresh awareness of who 
You are and what You desire for them to do. Lord, the challenges they 
face are so great that they need Your wisdom to meet them. Use our 
Senators this day so that Your will may be done on Earth as it is done 
in heaven. Let Your peace come to them as they commit their 
responsibilities to You and then work with Your guidance and grace.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
