                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Gracious Lord, whose glory has been revealed through the generations, 
renew within our Senators a true understanding of Your purpose for 
their lives, for our Nation, and for our world. Amid the challenges of 
our time, infuse them with a spirit of wisdom and courage so that they 
will be instruments of Your providence. Lord, use them to make an 
impact on the lives of the forgotten who lack hope and on all people 
who seek Your presence. May Your grace, mercy, and peace be on us all 
now and stay with each one of us always.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
