                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following 
prayer:
  Lord God, our fortress and source of freedom, You are always 
attentive to our pleas. We need to be more attentive to Your response 
and Your commands. Or we are left to ourselves.
  You are loving with those who love You. With those sincere, You show 
Yourself to be sincere. With the cunning, You can undo their cunning.
  So shed Your light upon the House of Representatives; that step by 
step, in a unified effort, we may build a society where stability and 
creativity will flourish and we may even glimpse Your glory, both now 
and forever. Amen.
