                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, You are our light and salvation, and we are not afraid. 
You protect us from danger so we do not tremble.
  Mighty God, You are not intimidated by the challenges that confront 
our Nation and world.
  Lord, inspire our lawmakers with the knowledge of Your holiness that 
will give them reverential awe. Remind them of the many prayers they 
have prayed that You have already answered.
  Lord, You have been our help in ages past. You are our hope for the 
years to come. We magnify Your Holy Name. Don't stay far off. Show 
Yourself strong to this generation and fill us with Your peace.
  We pray in Your powerful Name. Amen.
