[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 10] [Senate] [Page 14238] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov] prayer The Chaplain, Dr. Barry C. Black, offered the following prayer: Let us pray. Our Father, creator and sustainer of our lives, thank You for the gift of freedom. Lord, we are grateful for the religious, political, and social freedoms that bless our lives. Remind our lawmakers to think seriously about the blessings of liberty as they help people to reflect soberly about the cost of protecting our democratic way of life. Raise up on Capitol Hill people who are true to You and who will follow wherever You lead. As they accept Your guidance, lift their burdens and keep them from being bogged down by trying to carry their problems without Your strength. We pray in Your great Name. Amen. ____________________
