                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, Your words are pure. When hate seems to triumph, 
surround us with Your protection and favor. Have mercy upon our Nation 
and world.
  Lord, the wicked are often exalted as they blaspheme and destroy. May 
our lawmakers not permit inaction to derail liberty.
  How long will the enemies of freedom prevail? Awake us all, and use 
us for Your glory, for we trust in Your mercy.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
