                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  O God of time and eternity, You made us. Bring our wandering hearts 
under Your control. Infuse within our lawmakers a love for You that 
will make their obedience willing and glad. Lord, enable them to turn 
from every thought, word, and deed that violates righteousness. Help 
them to manifest ethical fitness in their private and public lives, 
making integrity the hallmark of their characters. Let right living 
begin with them as they resolve to labor for peace and justice and to 
be good stewards of Your gifts.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
