                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Our Father in Heaven, shower our Senators with Your marvelous grace 
this day and always. Make them sufficient for these grand and 
challenging times. Teach them to make the most of their time, for the 
night comes when no one can work.
  Lord, refresh them with Your might so that they will face 
vicissitudes with an equanimity of temperament and an absolute trust in 
the power of Your providence. Keep a protective eye on them so that 
they may dwell in safety.
  Today, shine the light of Your presence upon us all, filling us with 
Your joy.
  We pray in Your Holy Name. Amen.
