Hymn of the Day
Here on earth, then, let your hearts rise from longings vain and hollow. Seek what Christ your Lord imparts while you in his footsteps follow. As you now still wait to rise, set your hearts beyond the skies! ("Jesus Lives, My Sure Defense" - Text: Otto von Schwerin, 1616-1679; tr. Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878, alt.)
