                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Sovereign Lord, we trust You to guide our Nation and world. Permit us 
to feel Your nearness and to know the inspiration of Your presence. May 
our closeness to you help us to choose truth over falsehood, love over 
hate, and good over evil.
  Lord, move among our lawmakers, instructing, lifting, and guiding 
them so that whatever they do in word or deed they will glorify You. 
Show our Senators what needs to be done and give them the courage and 
wisdom to do Your will.
  We pray in Your glorious Name. Amen.
