                                 PRAYER

  The Reverend Dr. Barry Black, Chaplain of the United States Senate, 
offered the following prayer:
  Almighty God, Who has made and preserved us as a nation, guide our 
lawmakers through the complexities of life and governance.
  Lord, equip this body with a spirit of cooperation that brings glory 
to Your name.
  Lead them to a fresh dedication to serve and to choose the harder 
right.
  In the living of their days, may faith replace fear, truth conquer 
falsehood, justice triumph over greed, love prevail over hate, and 
peace abide with all humanity.
  We pray in Your holy name. Amen.
