                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O God our Father, shine Your light on Capitol Hill and give light to 
each lawmaker. Illuminate their lives so that their beliefs may be 
certain and true. May the light of Your knowledge guide them in all 
their decisions. Grant that, guided by Your light, they will reach the 
light that never fails. Grant that, illuminated by Your truth, they may 
reach the truth that is complete. Lead them, God, so that in the end 
they may see light in Your light and know even as they are known. We 
pray in Your great Name. Amen.
