                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, You have said that the truth will set us free. We 
thank You that Your idea of freedom leads to harmony and productivity.
  Lord, liberate our lawmakers from deceptions that misrepresent truth. 
Teach them the fine art of conciliation, and inspire them to choose 
roads that lead to progress. Lord, lift them above polarization, and 
give them the power to walk in Your light, to act in Your strength, to 
think with Your wisdom, to speak with Your truth, and to live in Your 
love.
  We pray in Your preeminent Name. Amen.
