                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, Spirit of light and truth, beauty and freedom, thank You 
for Your sustaining grace.
  Continue to strengthen our lawmakers that they may play their part in 
the life of our times. Lord, give them wisdom to think clearly, speak 
kindly, and act bravely. Make them patient and thoughtful with one 
another as they seek to serve You and country with integrity. May they 
remember that without You, they will fail to do their best or reach 
their highest. Keep them from stumbling or slipping.
  We pray in Your Holy Name. Amen.
