                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Hosts, Heaven and Earth are filled with 
Your glory. Lord, You have given us the hope that Your kingdom shall 
come on Earth. Help us to see the signs of its dawning as we labor for 
liberty.
  May the work and deliberations of our lawmakers so reflect the nature 
of Your coming kingdom that people will be filled with faith.
  Increase our hunger and thirst for righteousness, and feed us with 
the bread of Heaven. Lord, empower us all to work for that perfect day 
when Your will shall be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
