                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, we honor Your Name. From You comes the help we need to 
face life's challenges and setbacks. Guide our lawmakers. Lead them 
through the turbulence to the destination of Your choosing. May they 
hold on to Your firm hand, finding in Your radiance the ability to 
transform bitterness, disappointment, and failure into redemptive 
opportunities.
  Lord, make our Senators increasingly the kind of people whom You can 
use as instruments of Your purposes for humanity. Bless the incoming 
Senators of this 116th Congress with Your wisdom and might.
  We pray in Your sovereign Name. Amen.
