                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God of our forebears, author of liberty, we lift our hearts in 
praise. Thank You for the opportunity to witness a renewal of democracy 
and an orderly transition of power. Lord, we know this orderly 
transition was not inevitable, for only Your grace saved us.
  Mighty God, let the healing begin; bless our incoming Senators. Give 
wisdom and courage to President Joseph R. Biden and Vice President 
Kamala Harris for the living of these days. And, Lord, long may our 
land be bright with freedom's holy light. Protect us by Your might, 
great God our King.
  We pray in Your sovereign Name. Amen.
