                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray:
  Lord, we thank You for touching our Senators' lives. Continue to 
guide and inspire them. Help them to stand up for truth. Instill in 
them courage to lead us toward peace and unity. Fill their minds with 
wisdom and compassion as they strive to give You their best. Protect 
them from danger. May the desire to do Your will become their highest 
priority.
  Bless America. Turn the hearts of our citizens toward You. Remind us 
that righteousness exults a nation but sin destroys.
  All this we pray in Your holy Name. Amen.
