                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Most loving God, the source of our hope, abide with our lawmakers 
today. Fill their minds with thoughts of Your love, wisdom, and 
strength.
  Lord, use them to be a voice for the voiceless. Keep them from all 
evil, purifying their hearts to be instruments for Your use. Take away 
from our Senators anything that hinders them from hearing and obeying 
Your voice. Teach them this day to see You more clearly, love You more 
dearly, and follow You more nearly.
  Now and always we pray, in Your sacred Name. Amen.
