                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, You have been our home through all the generations. 
Before the mountains were created, You are God, without beginning or 
end. Receive our prayers today and grant our lawmakers the mature 
wisdom to act as servants of this Nation that You have blessed with 
freedom. Inspire our Senators to be kind but firm, compassionate but 
resolute, possessed of quiet hearts, clear minds, and sound judgment. 
Lord, show them Your approval and give them success. Provide them with 
the strength and courage of those whose minds are focused on You.
  We pray in Your Holy Name. Amen.
