                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
  Blessed God, we praise You for this new day. You gave us good rest 
last night, replenishing our souls and our bodies. You awakened us with 
the reminder that this is Your day and You will show the way. With awe 
and wonder we acknowledge that any wisdom we will have will be a gift 
from You. You have given the Senators oversight of this Nation; now 
give them insight to know and do Your will. Give them humility to ask 
for a clear picture of Your best for each of the challenges ahead and 
for how they are to vote on the crucial legislation before them. You 
give wisdom to the humble, vision to the open-minded, and guidance to 
the receptive. Bless these Senators today, dear God. You are our Lord 
and Saviour. Amen.
