                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  God of our silent tears, You have put gladness in our hearts. Give 
our lawmakers such reverence for You that their words and actions will 
honor You. In Your presence, may they cultivate humility to acknowledge 
their needs, trust to ask You for help, and wisdom to obey Your 
commands. Walk with them throughout this day, reminding them that there 
is no purity without vigilance, no learning without effort, and no 
mastery without discipline.
  Lord, inspire them to pay the price required to glorify Your Name. 
Strengthen their resolve to choose the right and refuse the wrong.
  We pray in Your sacred Name. Amen.
