                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, You are our help in ages past and our hope for years to 
come. We find consolation from the knowledge that our times are in Your 
hands. Forgive us when we doubt Your power, mercy, and love.
  Bless our lawmakers. Help them to remember that You love them so much 
that You want what is best for them. You are so wise that You know what 
is best for them and so powerful that You can bring about what is for 
their ultimate good. Give each of our Senators a fresh burst of 
enthusiasm for the next stage in the unfolding scene of the American 
Dream.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
