                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God of peace, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and 
knowledge, thank You for coming to our world with the gift of 
salvation. We praise You for forgiving our sins and canceling the 
penalty which stood against us.
  Help our Senators to be peacemakers as they move toward the finish 
line of another year. Lord, may they be filled with the knowledge of 
Your will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, leading lives 
worthy of You as they strive to please You. Infuse them with the spirit 
of Your peace and grace so that there will be peace on Earth and good 
will to humankind.
  We pray in Your majestic Name. Amen.
