                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Merciful God, look on our lawmakers with kindness and teach them to 
do Your will. Show them how to live for Your honor and to be 
instruments of Your peace. Rescue them from the traps that keep us from 
national prosperity for You are our shelter and strength. Keep them 
from fear, even if the Earth is shaken and mountains fall into the 
ocean depths. Stay with us, mighty God, ruling our hearts, our Nation, 
and our world.
  We pray in Your sovereign Name. Amen.
