                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  As we begin this new week, let us think magnificently about God, so 
that we may serve Him magnanimously and glorify His majesty. Let us 
pray.
  O God, whose love never lets go; whose mercy never ends; whose 
strength is always available; whose guidance shows the way; whose 
Spirit provides a supernatural power; whose presence is our courage; 
whose joy transforms our gloom; whose peace calms our pressured hearts; 
whose light illuminates our path; whose goodness provides the wondrous 
gifts of loved ones, family, and friends; whose will has brought us to 
the awesome tasks of this Senate today; and whose calling lifts us 
above party politics to put You and the good of our Nation first, we 
dedicate all that we have and are to serve You this week with 
unreserved faithfulness and unfailing loyalty.
  To You, dear God, be the glory. Amen.
