The Collect for Trinity
Almighty and everlasting God,
who hast revealed thyself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
and dost ever live and reign in the unity of perfect love:
Grant that we may always hold firmly and joyfully to this faith,
and, living in the praise of thy divine majesty, may finally be one in thee;
who art three persons in one God, world without end.
Quoted from T.F. Torrance in 'The Trinitarian Faith' (T&T Clark: 1988)
P.340.

Beautiful prayer. I read somewhere recently that vague notions of love are not the core of the Christian faith as some may propose. Our faith is in a Triune God, incarnate in Christ, crucified and risen.
Out of such faith comes a life of love and sacrifice. A small but significant distinction.
Its holy week, and a good time to meditate on these things.
I appreciate this Trinitarian theme in your music and preaching.
peace
Peter
