                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Compassionate and merciful God, we give You thanks for giving us 
another day.
  Bless the Members of this people's House. Give them strength, 
fortitude, and patience. Fill their hearts with charity, their minds 
with understanding, and their wills with courage to do the right thing 
for all of America.
  In the work to be done now, may they rise together to accomplish what 
is best for our great Nation and indeed for all the world, for You have 
blessed us with many graces and given us the responsibility of being a 
light shining on a hill.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
