                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Lord of life, rescue us from the faults to which we are prone. Keep 
us from saying one thing and doing another; from criticizing others for 
what we allow in ourselves. Keep us from demanding standards from 
others which we ourselves make no effort to fulfill. Lord, keep us from 
the indecision that cannot say ``yes'' or ``no.'' Keep us from the 
reluctance to break habits which we know are wrong. Today, keep our 
Senators from anything that prevents them from giving all their 
loyalty, allegiance, and heart to You. And Lord, comfort the loved ones 
of Tyre Nichols. We pray in Your merciful Name. Amen.
