Hymn: Lord, Keep Us Steadfast in Your Word
Lyrics: Martin Luther; Tune: J. Klug

Lord, keep us steadfast in your Word;
curb those who by deceit or sword
would wrest the kingdom from your Son
and bring to naught all he has done.

Lord Jesus Christ, your pow’r make known,
for you are Lord of lords alone;
defend your holy church, that we
may sing your praise triumphantly.

O Comforter of priceless worth,
send peace and unity on earth;
support us in our final strife,
and lead us out of death to life.

Prayer of the Day

Jeremiah 28:5-9

Psalm 119:153-160 (responses are even-numbered verses)

153 Behold my affliction and deliver me,
     for I do not forget your law.

154 Plead my cause and redeem me;
     according to your promise, give me life.

155 Deliverance is far from the wicked,
     for they do not study your statutes.

156 Great is your compassion, O Lord;
     preserve my life, according to your judgments.

157 There are many who persecute and oppress me,
     yet I have not swerved from your decrees.

158 I look with loathing at the faithless,
     for they have not kept your word.

159 See how I love your commandments!
     O Lord, in your mercy, preserve me.

160 The heart of your word is truth;
     all your righteous judgments endure forevermore.
