                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God of all nations, author of liberty, thank You for the gift of 
freedom.
  Today, empower our lawmakers to protect and guard the foundations of 
our liberty so that America may be a blessing to the world. When our 
Senators are weary, replenish their spirits with the inspiration of 
Your presence. Lord, make them aware that You will never forsake them 
in their hour of need. Bellow the flickering embers of their hearts 
until our legislators feel the fires of patriotism, service, and hope.
  We pray in Your marvelous Name. Amen.
