August 6th Daily Hymn, Readings, Word, Psalm and Prayer

Hymn of the Day
Hear us now, our God and Father, send your Spirit from above on this Christian man and woman who here make their vows of love. Bind their hearts in true devotion endless as the seashore's sands, boundless as the deepest ocean, blest and sealed by your own hands. ("Hear Us Now, Our God and Father" - Text: Harry N. Huxhold, 1922-2006)
