Order of Service: - Prelude - Hymn 52 - All Ye Who On This Earth Do Dwell: vv. 1 - 4 - 1 Timothy 2:1-4: First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. - Devotion - Prayer #128, p. 164 - God Gives Blessings to Our Leaders: 1) God, give blessing to our leaders, In whatever place they stand; Both in safety and in dangers, Guard our people and our land! Give them wisdom, strength, and might; Fill their heart with gracious light, Your true glory only pleasing, And in earthly joys increasing! 2) Let the married in their dwelling Be united with their God; Faithfully and closely foll’wing In their love the Word of God. In their life Your love will shine E’en in gentle discipline That both young and old may gather More to share Your bliss forever. - Brorson: Lad dit Rige allevegne L 391:2-3 tr.
