                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Eternal God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  As the people's House reassembles, our Nation faces a complicated 
and, to many, a confusing economic issue.
  Bless each Member of this assembly with the wisdom, knowledge, and 
understanding needed to meet the interests of the citizens of the 
United States.
  Renew in us all the adoption by Your Spirit, that we may affirm our 
freedoms, not only with conviction in the way we understand others, but 
in ourselves by actions proven beyond words.
  Bless us this day and every day. May all that is done here this day 
be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
