                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Dr. Barry C. Black, Chaplain, United States Senate, 
Washington, D.C., offered the following prayer:
  Lord of the harvest, we continue to seek You, for we desire to do 
Your will.
  You, O God, are our light and salvation, so we refuse to be afraid.
  As our lawmakers strive to walk uprightly, provide them with a 
harvest of truth, justice, and righteousness.
  May they cultivate such ethical congruence that their rhetoric will 
be undergirded by right actions.
  Lord, keep them aware of Your continuous presence, as they find in 
this fellowship fullness of joy.
  Show them the path to life, as Your truth brings them to a safe 
harbor.
  We pray in Your merciful name.
  Amen.
