Saints LightThe Glory Be
An ancient hymn of praise to the Trinity, the Lesser Doxology, prayed at the end of every psalm in the Divine Office and every decade of the Rosary. Pray it any time you want simply to give God glory.
The prayer
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
In Latin
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.
Pray it this week
Each time something good happens this week, even something small, stop and say one Glory Be.
