                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, today, make our Senators custodians of truth. Remind 
them that when people call a lie the truth, they tamper with their 
value judgment.
  Lord, give our lawmakers the wisdom to know that to scrape away their 
value judgment will eventually cause them to lose their sense of moral 
distinctions. May they understand that deception is difficult to 
quarantine and will corrupt all sense of moral discrimination.
  Lord, thank You for being a shelter for the oppressed, a refuge in 
times of trouble.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
