                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, our hearts are steadfast toward You. Lead us safely to 
the refuge of Your choosing, for You desire to give us a future and a 
hope.
  Lord, provide us with grateful hearts to appreciate Your mercies that 
are new each day. Today, give our Senators the power to do Your will as 
they realize more fully that they are servants of Heaven and stewards 
of Your mysteries. Give them perspectives on their daily tasks and 
every decision they must make. Remind them that people usually don't 
care how much You know until they know how much You care.
  May faithfulness to You become the litmus test by which our lawmakers 
evaluate each action.
  We pray in Your powerful Name. Amen.
