                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, our rock, our fortress, and our deliverer, You know when 
we sit and when we rise. Before a word is on our tongue, You know it 
completely. Guide us and our lawmakers with Your spirit's wisdom, 
keeping us from paths that lead to ruin. May we seek the wages of 
righteousness that will bring us life. Make the mouths of our Senators 
fountains of life that will bring peace and stability to our world. 
Give us all a reverence for You that will enable us to serve Your 
purposes for our lives in this generation.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
