                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  God of mercy, through whom we see what we can become, thank you for 
giving us another day.
  We thank You that so many Americans have been challenged and have 
risen to the exercise of their responsibilities as citizens to 
participate in the great debates of these days.
  Grant wisdom, knowledge, and understanding to us all, as well as an 
extra measure of charity.
  Send Your spirit upon the Members of this people's House who walk 
through this valley under public scrutiny. Give them peace and 
Solomonic prudence in their deliberations.
  May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
