                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Great God and Father, whose goodness lasts a lifetime, open our eyes 
to the wonders of Your grace. Help us to see the majesty of Your 
inclusive love to people everywhere, inspiring us to do Your work on 
Earth.
  Today, accept the gratitude of our lawmakers for Your generous 
blessings. Lord, keep them so dedicated to You that Your peace will 
abide in their hearts. May faith replace fear, truth conquer falsehood, 
and love prevail over hate.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
