                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O God, our hope for years to come, guide our lawmakers on each step 
of their pilgrimage. Make them supreme in compassion, mercy, and love, 
in fellowship with one another and their constituents.
  Lord, bring them more and more into oneness with You and obedience to 
Your commands. Fill them with the spirit of Your peace. In their 
weakness, give strength. In intenseness, give serenity. In 
discouragement, grant hope. And in weariness, bring rest. Work through 
them to fulfill Your will for our Nation and world.
  We pray in Your mighty Name. Amen.
