                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O God, our shelter in the time of storm, our strong tower, we praise 
Your righteous Name. Lord, preserve this Nation by the power of Your 
might, leading our Senators through this challenging season of our 
Nation's history. Keep them from the pit of disunity and discord and 
empower them to build bridges of cooperation. Give them the courage and 
humility to do what is right, knowing that You are the only constituent 
they absolutely must please. Help them to discover the joy of trusting 
You and the peace of doing Your will, receiving the strength You 
provide to those who love You.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
