                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, thank You for the gift of fruitful labor. Forgive us for 
the help we might have given someone in need and did not give.
  Use our lawmakers for Your glory. May they not thoughtlessly think, 
speak, or act in ways that wound or harm. Grant that they will do 
nothing that would bring shame to themselves, grief to their families, 
or sorrow to You.
  Lord, thank You for the strategic role of the U.S. Senate and Your 
unfolding providence for our beloved Nation. Help us all to be faithful 
to the destiny You intend for our lives.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
