                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Savior of all, make us patient and kind. Help us to not do to others 
what we wouldn't want done to us.
  Lord, fill the hearts of our Senators with Your overflowing love. 
Enable them to love their neighbors as You have commanded them to do. 
Plant within our lawmakers a sure confidence in Your prevailing 
providence. Renew and refresh them for the challenges of this day. Keep 
them congenial with their colleagues, ever eager to explore common 
ground.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
