                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Answer us when we call, O God, and bless our Nation.
  May our lawmakers work to do Your will, remembering that You have set 
apart the Godly for yourself. Inspire our Senators to find refuge in 
You and to discover blessings and joy in Your favor.
  Lord, continue to supply our needs according to Your riches in glory, 
encouraging us to learn contentment by trusting the unfolding of Your 
loving providence. Keep us from stumbling or slipping as we find safety 
by walking with integrity.
  Eternal God, to Your precious Name we ascribe glory, majesty and 
might, dominion and power, now and always. Amen.
