                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Father, who established the Heavens, give our lawmakers a 
faith that will hold strong and steady in life's storms. Help them to 
remember that You are with them every moment of every day. Blessed by 
Your loving providence, may they trust You to surround our Nation with 
the shield of Your favor. Give them a quiet confidence for facing the 
difficulties of our times. Lord, make our Senators instruments of Your 
will for the healing of our Nation and world. Thank You for the rewards 
You give to those who live for You.
  We pray in Your mighty Name. Amen.
