Almighty and everlasting God, you
blessed your servant John Christian Frederick Heyer with a passion for the
gospel, inexhaustible energy, and a keen awareness of the need of the world for
your saving word: Ever give to your church such clear minded and dauntless
servants who rejoice to spend themselves in your service, that your people may
be fed with living food and know the inexhaustible riches of our Savior Jesus
Christ; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and
forever. Amen
(Philip H. Pfatteicher)
9 We have thought on your
steadfast love, O God,
in the midst of your temple.
10 As your name, O God,
so your praise reaches to the ends of the
earth.
Your right hand is filled with
righteousness.
11 Let Mount Zion be glad!
Let the daughters of Judah rejoice
because of your judgments!
12 Walk about Zion, go around
her,
number her towers,
13 consider well her
ramparts, go through her citadels,
that you may tell the next generation
14 that this is God, our God forever and
ever.
He will guide us forever
Psalm 48 – English Standard Version
