Creed – I believe in God Almighty (tune: Hyfrydol)

I believe in God Almighty,
he who made both heaven and earth.
I believe he is our Father,
and through him we have our birth.
I believe and trust in Jesus,
God the Father’s only Son.
I believe he came to save us
for he loves us, every one.

And I love his Mother Mary,
for through her my Lord was born;
born to suffer death and sorrow,
born to rise on Easter morn.
I believe he lives for ever,
death for him was not the end.
He returned to God his Father
that his Spirit he might send.

I believe his Holy Spirit
lives within our Church today.
And he gives his truth and guidance
so that we will know the way.
I believe, when life is over,
Christ will take us home with him,
and in joy we’ll live for ever,
evermore in peace Amen.
