Creeds and Glorias

Creed

Metre: 13 13 13 14Tune: Tempus Adest Floridum

We believe in God the Lord,
Father, Lord eternal.
From this source all life was poured,
Very God supernal.
We believe in Christ the Son,
Jesus, Saviour, brother;
Through his death all life is won:
Love defeats all other.

We believe the Paraclete,
God the Holy Spirit,
Gives the breath that makes life sweet
In our mortal limit.
As the Church proclaims the faith,
Age to age repeating.
Truth and story ever safe
In this life so fleeting.
