                                 PRAYER

  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Chaplain of the House of 
Representatives, Father Patrick Conroy, will open the Senate with 
prayer.
  The guest Chaplain offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Righteous God, deliver Your people from evil. Set our lawmakers on 
safe paths, protecting them from dangers. Preserve them and their loved 
ones, keeping them from stumbling.
  Provide our Senators with counsel, even in the night sessions where 
they may prevail against the evil that seeks to destroy our Nation and 
world. As they trust Your loving-kindness, may their hearts rejoice in 
Your salvation. Lord, deal bountifully with them and the members of 
their staffs.
  We pray in Your marvelous Name. Amen.
