                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, You are holy, the only God, and Your deeds sustain us. 
Because of You, we live and move and breathe and have our being.
  Lord, remind our lawmakers of the wisdom of Proverbs 22:3: ``A 
prudent person foresees the danger ahead and takes precautions; the 
simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.'' Lord, may our 
lawmakers be prudent people, seeing the danger from afar and preparing 
to meet it. Grant our Senators wisdom and courage for the living of 
these challenging times.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
