                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer:
  Let us pray.
  Eternal Father, who extends daily to our lawmakers' compassionate 
love, we praise Your Holy Name. In a fragile world where we often find 
ourselves waiting to exhale, You remain our shelter for every storm.
  Lord, relieve the shadows of gloom as we face a world endangered by 
selfishness and sin. Bring our Senators from the fatigue of despair to 
the buoyancy of hope. Make their lives unflickering lights that scatter 
the darkness in our Nation and world. Give them an unflinching 
certainty that You are sovereign.
  We pray in Your great Name. Amen.
