                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Lord, You have been our Nation's defense and we look to You for 
shelter and refuge. You have spoken in Your holiness and we rejoice at 
Your words that provide light in darkness.
  Bless our Senators. May they seek to serve and honor You. May their 
words and deeds reflect an earnest desire for justice and righteousness 
in our Nation and world. Crown their years with Your goodness as they 
trust You to do what is best for all.
  We pray in Your holy Name. Amen.
