                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Father, answer us speedily when we don't know which way to 
turn. Guide us with Your light when we cannot see the way.
  Do not hide Your face from our lawmakers as they seek to do Your 
will, for in the time of trouble, You continue to hide us in Your 
pavilion. Lord, teach our Senators how to live in a way that will honor 
You.
  We magnify Your Name for the way You have preserved our Nation 
through the seasons of its existence. You have made us glad, for You 
are our light and salvation.
  We pray in Your glorious Name. Amen.
