                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray:
  O God, the fountain of wisdom whose will is good and gracious and 
whose law is true, order the steps of our Senators. May the words of 
their lips and the meditations of their hearts please You. Lift them 
above the claims of political expediency and make them fearless to seek 
to know and to do right. Keep them from friendships and alliances that 
lead them from You. As they strive to be faithful, use their example 
and influence to bless our land. Show them the right road and guide 
them by Your might.
  We pray in Your holy Name. Amen.
