                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Lord of truth and love, source and end of our believing and loving, 
You alone are worthy of our praise and we celebrate Your great Name. 
Thank You for the gift of Your dynamic presence in our lives and for 
the power we receive from knowing You.
  Be near our Senators today. Lift them from any discouragement, and 
give them a sure sense of duty and service. Pour fresh energy into them 
and use their work to transform disorder into harmony, beauty, and 
peace. Guide them with Your undying love so that the reign of Your 
kingdom will become a reality in our world.
  We pray in Your holy Name. Amen.
