                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Eternal Lord God, the center of our joy, give our Senators today a 
passion for You. May they find joy in doing Your will and delight in 
obeying Your precepts. Give them courage and resolve to do their duty 
as You give them the wisdom to see it. Create in them hearts that 
strive to be spent in Your service, doing all the good they can for as 
many people as they can.
  We pray in Your holy Name. Amen.
