                                 PRAYER

  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Our visiting Chaplain this day is the 
Reverend Ralph E. Williamson, senior pastor of First African Methodist 
Episcopal Church in Las Vegas, NV. He will lead us in prayer.
  The guest Chaplain offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Most gracious Master and our God, who has safely brought us to 
another day, grant these elected men and women in the United States 
Senate wisdom and Your divine guidance as they seek to take care of the 
business of this Nation. May Your invisible presence watch over and 
refresh their minds, encourage their thoughts, and invigorate their 
spirits to find the peaceful solutions and excellence for which they 
were elected. Allow every moment to serve as an opportunity to resolve 
their differences and move our great Nation forward.
  We pray in the Name of God, the Creator and Sustainer of us all. 
Amen.
