Endless Glory

Ascension Day sunset over Epping in Essex, The sun reflects off the majestic tower
of the Parish Church of St John the Baptist. The other views are of the glorious sky from Epping Town.
The photographs were taken by my friend Sue Carter, a member of the Congregation.

Glory be to God the Father,
glory be to God the Son,
dying, risen, ascending for us,
who the heavenly realm has won;
glory to the Holy Spirit,
to One God in persons Three;
glory both in earth and heaven,
glory, endless glory, be.

[from the hymn : See the conqueror mounts in triumph,
by Bishop Christopher Wordsworth – nephew of William & Dorothy. ]

Ascension.

Ascension means a
God-like view of things,
Rising above our usual
limitations.
Rise, then, and know
The glory of life
Set free from fear.
