                                 PRAYER

  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Today's opening prayer will be offered by 
Msgr. Anthony J. Marcaccio, of St. Pius X, from Greensboro, NC.
  The guest Chaplain offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Blessed are You Lord, God of all creation. You are the giver of every 
good gift, of life and liberty, of peace and prosperity, of wisdom, 
understanding, and right judgment.
  We ask that in Your divine mercy, You would bless our Republic and 
especially the work of our Senators, that they may discern ``all that 
is true, all that is honorable, all that is right, all that is 
excellent and worthy of praise'' for our Nation.
  In this moment, make us mindful of all that has brought us together 
as a country, and how it far surpasses that which can divide us, so in 
all things deliberated and done here, we may be preserved as one Nation 
under God. Amen and Amen.
