lyrics
II.
Invocation
I arise today:
in vast might, invocation of the Trinity;
belief in a Threeness;
confession of Oneness;
towards the Creator.
I arise today:
in the might of Heaven;
brightness of Sun;
whiteness of Snow;
splendour of Fire;
speed of Lightning;
swiftness of Wind;
depth of Sea;
stability of Earth;
firmness of Rock.
I arise today:
in vast might, invocation of the Trinity;
belief in a Threeness;
confession of Oneness;
towards the Creator.
from The Lorica, St. Patrick
