                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, who restores the soul and gives life in the midst of 
decay, empower our Senators to accomplish Your purposes. Lord, be to 
them a faithful guide on the challenging road they travel. Teach them 
to find contentment in striving to please You and provide them with 
Your power, wisdom, and strength.
  As tomorrow's difficulties loom large, remind them that You can move 
mountains and create opportunities. Blaze the trail ahead for our 
lawmakers with Your might and wisdom, for You are our shelter and hope.
  We pray in your Holy Name. Amen.
