                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Infinite Spirit, Your thoughts are too high for us to comprehend, and 
Your ways are past finding out. You transform our discordant notes into 
harmony as Your goodness and mercy pursue us.
  Abide with our Senators. Lord, give them the insight to discern truth 
from falsehood, the high from the low, and the enduring from the 
transient. Impart to them a perspective that will enable them to find 
the right path.
  God, bless America. May we not forget that without You, no nation can 
long endure.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
