                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  O Lord of our pilgrim years, this day brings us its concerns and 
duties. As our Senators serve You and country, make them aware that 
their attitudes, words, and actions influence the structure of events 
around our Nation and world.
  Lord, help these representatives of freedom to master themselves, 
that they may be the servants of others. In these times of strain, keep 
them from magnifying the slights and stings that are a part of the 
legislative process. Lord, give them pure hearts and a passion to serve 
the American people with integrity, truth, and honor.
  And, Lord, we thank You for the life and legacy of Representative 
Sheila Jackson Lee.
  We pray in Your strong Name. Amen.
