                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God of our destinies, attune our spirits to the graciousness of this 
season as You fill us with Your measureless love. Thank You for Your 
plan of redemption, intended to extricate humanity from ruin.
  Lord, the legislative process often involves disagreements at deep 
levels, but keep our Senators away from disagreeable spirits. Give them 
wisdom. Patiently, look for ways to cooperate in strengthening this 
land we love. Let the glorious message of peace on Earth and good will 
toward all guide their deliberations.
  We pray in Your righteous Name. Amen.
