                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, touch the secret place inside each of us and know our 
hearts. In the stillness of this prayer moment, make us so transparent 
that we shall connect to Your power.
  Lord, strengthen our lawmakers by the power of Your Holy Spirit, as 
the light of Your wisdom illuminates the recesses of their hearts. 
Lord, give our Senators the wisdom to be quick to listen, slow to 
speak, and slow to anger. When this day is done, may they look back 
with the realization that they have accomplished Your purposes.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
