                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God of grace and God of glory, send Your power on Capitol Hill. May 
the might of Your presence provide our lawmakers with the courage and 
discipline to follow where You lead. Lord, guide them through their 
challenging decisions to the desired destination of Your purposes. As 
they walk on Your path, make them exemplary models of Your love and 
peace. Fortify their desire to live with sincerity and self-effacement 
for the glory of Your Kingdom.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
