The Play of the Godhead G3 564

This is theologian and hymn writer, Mary Louise Bringles‘s valiant attempt to sing meaning into the Trinity with her poetry. Hymn lyrics capture an aspect of lived faith but unless you find a way to sing the catechism, the failure to achieve “truth” will make you a target. I don’t think the text will confuse any assembly, nor do I expect anyone to start a conga line.

The text is here followed by commentary of various sorts.

Gather use a setting called BEDFORD PARK by Robert Batastini.

GIA have their other setting (by William Rowan) for sale but only a handbell arrangement for this one.

Hymnary have a copy of the preview page that was once on the GIA site in the kinder key of Eb (Gather has it in F). You may need to find one of the hymnals noted at Hymnary to find the music otherwise.
