                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Gracious Lord, whose glory has been revealed through the generations, 
in this time of change renew within our Senators a true understanding 
of Your providential purposes. Create in them a fervent desire to do 
Your will and to trust You to produce the results so desperately needed 
to heal our Nation and world. Lord, guide them with the light of Your 
truth so they can see clearer the path You would have them follow. May 
their priorities reflect Your wisdom so that Your liberating love will 
be felt in all they say and do. Help them to emulate the depth of Your 
caring in their relationships and responsibilities. Lord, we ask you to 
bless our new Senators with Your wisdom and courage.
  We pray in Your Holy Name. Amen.
