The godly governor Johan van Riebeeck MD caught sight of Table Mountain -- flat as a pancake on top; a mile high; soaring up out of the sea. As the waves were crashing against the beach, he got down on his knees on the sand and prayed the following prayer: "0 merciful gracious God and heavenly Father! as it has pleased Thy Divine Majesty to call us here at the Cape of Good Hope to gather, with our own Council, in Thy holy Name -- may we make such decisions as maintain justice and, if it be possible, implant and expand Thy true Reformed Christian religion in Thy good time among these wild and brutal natives to the praise and honour of Thy Name. This we pray and desire in the Name of Thy dear Son, our Mediator and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen!" cited in "The Christian Afrikaners" rev Prof Dr Francis Nigel Lee, p. 13 full text here: http://www.richardstephenson.net/ca.pdf Original Dutch full prayer here: http://www.richardstephenson.net/books/prayer_Van_Riebeeck.doc Regards Richard Stephenson
