                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, we have enemies. Many strive to stop the march of 
freedom. Use our lawmakers to accomplish Your will on Earth. Give them 
the wisdom to trust Your precepts and depend upon Your guidance. Lord, 
judge our desires and thoughts, as You strengthen us with Your constant 
love. Thank You for the way You have helped us throughout our history. 
Spare us from the fate of those who do evil and sustain us with Your 
prevailing mercies. Guard those who place their hope in You and keep 
them safe, enabling them to tell of Your wonderful deeds to future 
generations.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
