                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, Your law is a lamp, and Your teachings illuminate our 
path. Help us to honor Your name.
  Lord, You know every heart and provide a shield for those who have 
reverence for You. Today may our Senators find treasures in Your wisdom 
that will enable them to be responsible stewards of their noble 
calling. As they remember their accountability to You, empower them to 
live for Your glory. O God, our ruler, let Your glory be seen in our 
Nation and world.
  Lord, we ask Your blessings upon Senator Jeffrey Chiesa as he takes 
his oath today.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
