                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Patrick J. Conroy, offered the following 
prayer:
  Merciful God, we give You thanks for giving us another day.
  Without a future, as a people we are depressed and limited in 
creative imaging. Without a past, we are inexperienced and lost between 
success and failure.
  Be as present to this Nation today as You were to our Founders. As 
the Creator and providential Lord, guide the Members of this people's 
House, and all their efforts, to uphold the Constitution and have it 
interface with present realities until true priorities arise as the 
Nation's agenda.
  Stir within all Americans a solidarity that will always unite and 
never divide us. Renew in us a spirit that will enable this country to 
be a righteous leader into a bold future, shaping a new culture of 
collaboration and understanding for the 21st century.
  May all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory.
  Amen.
