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
