                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Gracious God of all, we have heard glorious things about Your 
goodness. Let Your glory be over all the Earth. Our hearts make 
melodies to You because of Your exceeding greatness. Thank You for Your 
faithfulness that endures forever.
  Today, give us steadfast hearts that we may honor You with our lives. 
Be near to our Senators, giving them a powerful awareness of Your 
presence. Lord, increase in them such knowledge, love, and obedience 
that they may grow daily in Your likeness. Grant us wisdom and courage 
for the living of these challenging days as You surround us with Your 
divine favor.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
