                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Immortal, invisible, God only wise, do not stand far from us, for we 
need You every hour.
  May our lawmakers remember that their success comes from You. Give 
them the wisdom to seek justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with 
You. Lord, free them from any entanglements that dishonor You. Protect 
them from dangers, seen and unseen, as they strive to return good for 
evil. When they feel overwhelmed, remind them that, in everything, You 
are working for the good of those who love You.
  Help us all to strive to glorify You in every action, both large and 
small.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
