                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Merciful God of the universe, we give You thanks for giving us 
another day.
  Send Your spirit upon the Members of this people's House, enlighten 
their hearts, and give them the light and strength to know Your will 
and make it their own.
  Guide them by Your wisdom and support them with Your power. For You 
desire justice for all, and we ask You to enable them to uphold the 
rights of all.
  May they not be misled by ignorance nor corrupted by fear or favor 
but, rather, faithful to all that is true. As they work through this 
day and these weeks, may they temper justice with love, and may all 
their deliberations be pleasing to You.
  May all that is done within these hallowed Halls be for Your greater 
honor and glory.
  Amen.
