                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Immortal God, You rule the Earth with goodness. Great and marvelous 
are Your works. Help us so to live that we can be Your instruments for 
good in our world. Lord, fill our hearts with Your peace and undergird 
us with the unfolding of Your loving providence.
  Bless our Senators. Enlighten and illumine them that they may know 
You and Your precepts. Touch their lips so that they may speak no words 
that grieve You. Give them faith for every challenge, strength for 
every temptation, and wisdom for every perplexity.
  We pray in Your majestic Name. Amen.
