                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God of all nations, Lord of all people, thank You for this land that 
has received Your blessings.
  Lord, throughout our Nation's history, You have saved us from 
calamities. You have blessed us, even when we have failed to live up to 
our great heritage of freedom.
  Today, empower our Senators to protect and guard the foundations of 
our liberty. Remind them that eternal vigilance continues to be the 
price we must pay for freedom. When our lawmakers are weary, replenish 
them with the inspiration of Your presence, as they remember Your 
promise never to forsake them. Bellow the flickering embers of their 
hearts until their lives are aglow with the fires of patriotism, 
vision, and hope.
  We pray in Your marvelous Name. Amen.
