                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, Lord of all nations, You have enabled the United States 
to become the most powerful Nation on Earth. By Your blessings, we are 
rich in natural resources and human potential. We have achieved 
military might. Help us to know where and when to use our influence or 
military intervention for the greatest good. Bless the Senators with 
great wisdom as they consider their votes today on the nature and 
extent of our Nation's involvement in the crisis in Kosovo. You have 
told us that if we ask for guidance, You will help us to know what is 
both wise and creative. Most of all, Lord, we ask You to heal the 
historic hatred and ethnic prejudices causing this crisis. In today's 
vote and in all that is said and done in this Senate, may we accomplish 
the goal of using power wisely. In the name of our Lord. Amen.
