                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, the center of our joy, guide and bless our lawmakers. 
Inspire their minds; assist their wills; and strengthen their hands 
that they may not falter or fail. Do for them more than they can ask or 
imagine as You continue to use them as instruments for Your glory. 
Lord, give to all who labor in this Chamber the wisdom, humility, and 
competence sufficient for this day. May the words of their mouths and 
the meditations of their hearts be acceptable to You, O God, our rock 
and our redeemer.
  Amen.
