                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Gracious God, high and lifted up, hallowed be Your Name.
  Lord, on yesterday we observed the 10th anniversary of 9/11 and 
thanked You for Your grace that continues to protect and sustain us. We 
give thanks at the remembrance of Your holy Name, for You are our hope 
for years to come. Today, empower our Senators to grow in grace and 
knowledge of You. With each passing day, may they find themselves more 
ethically and morally fit. Let Your word be a light for them and a lamp 
to illuminate the darkness. Lord, use them so effectively on Capitol 
Hill that justice will reign in our land and world.
  We pray in Your sovereign Name. Amen.
