                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O mighty God, our gracious Father, thank You for the gift of this 
day. Lord, You are the one clear manifestation of love in the midst of 
lesser powers. Today, use our lawmakers to bring more of Your love to 
our world so that Your kingdom may come and Your will be done on Earth 
as it is in heaven.
  May our Senators discover the stillness of soul needed to begin to 
comprehend what is the height, length, breadth, and depth of Your great 
love. Use them as Your instruments of righteousness and justice in our 
world. Lord, open their minds to think Your thoughts and give them the 
courage to do Your will.
  We pray in Your sovereign Name. Amen.
