                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, You give strength to the weak and hope to the weary. 
You provide us with songs in the night. Great is Your faithfulness. We 
thank You for daily blessings, for the many moments that are touched by 
Your providence. We thank You for restoring us every time we fail. Make 
our faith more sure and help us to be faithful stewards of Your gifts. 
Give us ears to hear Your voice and hearts to obey You. Guide our 
Senators today. Teach them Your paths. We pray in Your strong name. 
Amen.
