                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Father, strong to save, whose arm has bound the restless 
wave, we honor Your Name. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil. 
We thank You for food, drink, clothing, friends, and family.
  Today, give our lawmakers faith to meet every challenge, courage to 
live by Your precepts, and humility to serve others in these grand and 
critical times. May a high sense of patriotism reinforce the commitment 
of our Senators to integrity, as they remember their accountability to 
You.
  And, Lord, we thank You for the life and contributions of Matthew 
Pollard, who worked on the Intelligence Committee.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
