                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, we praise You that You continue to rescue us from 
ourselves. We will tell about the wonders You have worked on our 
behalf. We are born in sin and formed by iniquity, but Your power 
continues to transform.
  Lord, You have kept us from stumbling and disgrace. Continue to 
provide our Senators with the blessings of Your mercy and peace. Lead 
them not into temptation, but deliver them from evil.
  Use our lawmakers to restore health and unity to a nation desperately 
desiring Your purposes to prevail. May Your favor keep us all secure.
  We pray in Your loving Name. Amen.
