                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Father of life, awaken in our Senators the joy of living this day 
with all its new challenges and hopes. May they see in the challenges 
opportunities to grow in grace and in a deeper knowledge of You. May 
they find in their hopes seeds to plant that will bring a harvest of 
healing to our land. Lord, fill their working hours with Your redeeming 
radiance and their hearts with Your peace. Keep them safe, for they 
have found in You a refuge. Instruct them with Your truth as You give 
them faith to believe in the certainty of Your ultimate triumph.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
