                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Spirit, send Your peace into our world. Hasten the day when 
nations will live in friendship with each other, united by their 
allegiance to You.
  May the Members of this body build with You a world without dividing 
walls and partisan strife. Empower our Senators to set country above 
party and place Your will above all else. Keep them faithful in their 
efforts to unite our world. Strengthen them to work together for the 
common good as You place Your peace that passes all understanding in 
their hearts. Bless them abundantly beyond all that they can imagine.
  We pray in the Name of the Prince of Peace. Amen.
