                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Almighty God, our rock of ages, be omnipresent during this 
impeachment trial, providing our Senators with the assuring awareness 
of Your powerful involvement. May they strive to have a clear 
conscience in whatever they do for You and country. Lord, help them 
remember that listening is often more than hearing. It can be an 
empathetic attentiveness that builds bridges and unites. May our 
Senators not permit fatigue or cynicism to jeopardize friendships that 
have existed for years. At every decision point throughout this trial, 
may they ask, which choice will bring God the greater glory?
  We pray in Your mighty Name. Amen.
