                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, as the final game of the National Basketball Association 
reminded us of redemption, we place our confidence in You, the Redeemer 
of humanity. Be exalted, O God, above the highest Heaven. May Your 
splendor shine over all the Earth.
  Today, use our Senators to do mighty things for Your glory. May they 
settle for nothing less than their best efforts to fulfill Your 
purposes. As they depend on Your strength, do for them more than they 
can imagine. Empower them to strengthen the foundation of justice, 
righteousness, and truth, doing their part to accomplish Your will.
  Lord, make our lawmakers so sensitive to Your grand vision for our 
Nation that they will be a conscience for our citizens in calling them 
back to You.
  We pray in Your sacred Name.
  Amen.
