                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray. Gracious God, thank You for the love You give us each 
day. Great and holy is Your Name. Infuse our lawmakers with a spirit of 
humility that will empower them to do Your will. Lord, help them to 
embrace Your desire to bring healing to our world. Challenge the best 
in them so they will give You their supreme allegiance and love. Enable 
them to fill swift hours with meaningful and faithful deeds, to think 
clearly, to act kindly, and to make a better world.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
