                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Majestic God, You have been our dwelling place in all generations, 
and we are sustained by Your unfailing love.
  Today, surround our Senators with the shield of Your favor as they 
labor to keep our Nation strong. Lord, teach them to be obedient to 
Your commands, doing Your good will as Your presence fills them with 
joy. May they be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger. 
Manifest Your power throughout their labors so that this Nation will be 
exalted by righteousness. May Your angels guide us all in our ways.
  We pray in Your mighty Name. Amen.
