                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God be in our heads, eyes, mouths, hearts, and in our understanding. 
God be in our looking, our thinking, and our speaking. God be with the 
Members of this legislative body today. Teach them and lead them into 
Your truth. Unite them with a common desire to do what is best for our 
Nation and world. Lord, give them grace to take judicious risks for the 
sake of truth and justice. Enable them to experience a fresh 
regenerating touch of Your power. In the decisions to be made, in 
crucial days ahead, make them worthy of these demanding times that call 
aloud for wisdom and character.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
