                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, send Your peace into our hearts today, providing us with 
the contentment that comes from Your abiding presence. Bless our 
lawmakers. Use them to give hope to the hopeless, help to the helpless, 
and freedom to the captives. Remind our Senators that evil will triumph 
when good people do nothing. Give them the courage to stand for right 
though the heavens fall. May they totally depend on You, acknowledging 
You as the Author and Finisher of their faith.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
