                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  O Lord our God, we give You thanks for giving us another day. You 
have kept us in life, sustained us, and allowed us to reach this 
moment.
  Bless the Members of the People's House that You have gifted to serve 
our Nation. Preserve them this day and for the coming day. Supply their 
needs according to Your riches and prompt them to work harmoniously 
with one another. Give them a heart for the needs of all people and 
help them to reason together for the public good. Should they be 
tempted by rancor, ease their passion and grant them the respectful 
desire to see past differences toward accomplishments worthy of Your 
desire for the benefit of all.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
