Remigius, Bishop of Rheims ca. 533

O God, who by the teaching of your faithful servant and bishop Remigius turned the nation of the Franks from vain idolatry to the worship of you, the true and living God, in the fullness of the catholic faith; Grant that we who glory in the name of Christian may show forth our faith in worthy deeds; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen

13 Your name, O Lord, endures forever,

    your renown, O Lord, throughout all ages.

14 For the Lord will vindicate his people

    and have compassion on his servants.

15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold,

    the work of human hands.

16 They have mouths, but do not speak;

    they have eyes, but do not see;

17 they have ears, but do not hear,

    nor is there any breath in their mouths.

18 Those who make them become like them,

    so do all who trust in them.

Psalm 135 English Standard Version
