                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, who has given us the rich heritage of this good land, 
we praise Your Name. During this season of peace on Earth, thank You 
for continuing to supply our needs.
  Lord, help us to listen to the quiet direction of Your spirit. 
Consecrate our speech to Your service, that we may honor You with our 
tongues.
  As Your Senators today seek to do what is right, make Your way clear 
to them. Strengthen them to face the pressures that come with 
protecting freedom.
  We pray in Your loving Name. Amen.
