Almighty God, source of knowledge, wisdom and faith: We
praise you for the gifts you richly bestowed on your servant Charles
Porterfield Krauth: and we pray that by his teaching and example , we may honor
the tradition that has been entrusted to us, cherish it, and hand it on in its
fullness to generations after us ; through your Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who
lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen
(Philip
H. Pfatteicher “New Book of Festivals and Commemorations”)
97 Oh how I love your law!
It is my
meditation all the day.
98 Your commandment makes me wiser than my enemies,
for it is ever
with me.
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers,
for your
testimonies are my meditation.
100 I understand more than the aged,
for I keep your
precepts.
101 I hold back my feet from every evil way,
in order to keep
your word.
102 I do not turn aside from your rules,
for you have
taught me.
103 How sweet are your words to my taste,
sweeter than honey
to my mouth!
104 Through your precepts I get understanding;
therefore I hate
every false way.
Psalm 119 – English Standard Version
