                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray. Eternal God, we love You, for You are our strength and 
fortress. Lord, You are worthy of our praise. We thank You for showing 
yourself faithful to all who put their trust in You. Continue to 
sustain our lawmakers with Your strong right hand.
  Lord, equip and empower them by Your Heavenly grace that they may be 
adequate for these momentous times. Use them as Your instruments to 
bring decency, justice, and mercy to our Nation and world.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
