                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray. Eternal Steward, we praise You for being with us this 
day, for You have embraced our Nation as a prize possession, providing 
us with protection when we need it most.
  Sustain our lawmakers as they seek to do Your will. Empower them to 
see You more clearly, love You more dearly, and follow You more nearly 
this day and always. May they look to You for guidance, claiming Your 
promise to direct their steps. In challenging times, give them the 
wisdom to lift their eyes to You to receive Your grace and mercy.
  Most Holy God, thank You for your love and faithfulness.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
