                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal God, we whisper our prayer boldly before Your throne of 
grace. You have invited us to come to You with all our needs. We thank 
You for our requests that You have already answered. We have sought and 
found. We have knocked and walked through open doors.
  Lord, with Your grace and mercy, strengthen our lawmakers for their 
journey. Prepare them for the ravages of the valley and the chill of 
the mountain summits. Guide them, great Redeemer. They are pilgrims on 
this Earth. They are weak, but You are mighty. Inspire them to keep 
their eyes on You and not the problems that seem too difficult to 
solve.
  We pray in Your Holy Name. Amen.
