Glory Be


As I was walking along the shore,

The Mystery was on my mind.

How can He be both one and three?

No explanation could I find.



And then I saw a child playing by the sea,

A scallop shell was in his hand.

He carried water from the ocean to the shore,

To fill a small space in the sand.



I said to him, “O child, your efforts are in vain!

That shallow space can’t hold the deep sea!”

He said to me, “O man, and what of your brain?

It can’t contain the Trinity!”



Glory be to the Father, Glory be to the Son,

Glory be to the Spirit of the Holy One,

As it was in the beginning, and as it now,

And as it ever shall be when every knee shall bow,

and every tongue confess thy Holy Name.



“But if you ask it shall be given to you.

If you seek, you shall find.

If you knock the door will open to you,

for God is merciful and kind.”



Glory be to the Father, Glory be to the Son,

Glory be to the Spirit of the Holy One,

As it was in the beginning, and as it is now,

And as it ever shall be when every knee shall bow,

and every tongue confess thy Holy Name.



World without end, Amen, Amen…
