                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, the author and finisher of our faith, we rejoice in the 
privileges You have strewn on our path. Give us the courage to use our 
opportunities to serve You and country. May our lawmakers strive to 
stand for right though the heavens fall. Remind them that evil prospers 
when good people do nothing. May our Senators also use the gift of 
intercessory prayer to unlock Your storehouse of blessings so 
desperately needed in our Nation and world. In hours of hardship, 
provide them with Your peace. Lord, give our legislators the wisdom 
that enables them to hasten the coming of Your Kingdom of justice and 
peace.
  We pray in Your sovereign Name. Amen.
