                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Lord of night and day to whose will all the stars are obedient, we 
submit to Your sovereignty and might. Remind our lawmakers that You are 
often closest to us when we feel far from You. Give our Senators 
confidence in the triumph of Your eternal purposes. May they strive 
each day to do something that will strengthen their hold upon the world 
unseen. Impart to them the wisdom to release Earth's fleeting things, 
as they seek to conform to the life of the world to come.
  And, Lord, please bless our faithful Senate pages who will be leaving 
us soon.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
