                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Tony Lee, Community of Hope AME Church, Hillcrest Heights, 
Maryland, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, we come today with a spirit of humility and gratitude. 
We come with the realization that this is the day that You have made, 
and we will rejoice and be glad in it. We thank You for the opportunity 
we are afforded to serve the least of these and the responsibility to 
remember the forgotten and lift the downtrodden. We ask this day for 
the courage to do the hard things and the vision to see beyond 
ourselves.
  Empower the Members of this House to make a difference. Let their 
efforts be expressions of Your grace, reflections of Your justice, and 
manifestations of Your love.
  It is our prayer, that when our time on this terrestrial sphere is 
over, that the works of this day will speak for us and we will hear You 
say, ``Well done my good and faithful servants.''
  Lord, hear our prayer. In Jesus' name.
  Amen.
