                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal King, You are great and marvelous. You alone are God. Without 
Your wondrous deeds, our Nation and planet could not survive. You 
continue to perform wonders on our behalf, rescuing us from ourselves.
  Lord, inspire our lawmakers to acknowledge Your sovereignty. Teach 
them Your precepts so that they may walk in Your truth, experiencing 
the reverential awe that comes from Your presence. Provide wisdom and 
knowledge to our legislative leaders, bringing stability to our land.
  Sovereign God, Ruler of all nature, You alone will we worship, for 
You keep us on the path of wisdom.
  We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
