                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, we wait expectantly for You to bring order from our 
world's chaos. Empower our lawmakers today to contribute harmony to our 
Nation and world by living with purity. Make their thoughts and desires 
so pure that they can bear Your scrutiny. Make their words so pure that 
You delight to hear them. Make their deeds so pure that You find joy in 
seeing them. And because of their pure thoughts, desires, words, and 
deeds, may our Senators possess such pure hearts that they will see 
You.
  We pray in Your wonderful Name. Amen.
