永恒的光明， 三位一體的天主， 我們自認微弱， 虔心向祢求助；
我們相信聖父至尊， 父子互相愛慕， 共發聖神， 結合為唯一主。
仁慈的天主， 祢是真理， 祢是仁愛， 祢是我們的歸宿。
求祢使我們希望， 令我們愛慕， 常常尋求祢， 我們的幸福。
祢是原始， 祢是終結， 祢的仁慈無限， 創造了萬物。
祢是萬民的光明， 只有祢能使萬物滿足； 使渴望祢的人， 獲得真正的幸福。
我們呼求全能天父， 我們呼求救主基督， 呼求愛的聖神， 俯聽我們的哀訴。
ETERNAL Light, Divinity, O Unity in Trinity, Thy holy name Thy servants bless, to Thee we pray, and Thee confess.
We praise the Father, mighty One; we praise the sole-begotten Son; we praise the Holy Ghost above, who joins Them in one bond of love.
O Verity! O Charity! O Ending and Felicity! in Thee we hope, in Thee believe, Thyself we love, to Thee we cleave.
Thou First and Last, from whom there springs the Fount of all created things,
Thou art the Life which moves the whole, sure hope of each believing soul.
Thou who alone the world hast made, art still its one sufficing aid,
the only Light for gazing eyes, and, unto them that hope, the Prize.
O Father, Source of God the Word, O Word with Him co-equal Lord,
O Spirit of like majesty, O Triune God, all praise to Thee. Amen.

Ætérna lux, divínitas, in unitáte Trínitas, te confitémur débiles, te deprecámur súpplices.
Summum Paréntem crédimus Natúmque Patris únicum, et caritátis vínculum qui iungit illos Spíritum.
O véritas, o cáritas, o finis et felícitas, speráre fac et crédere, amáre fac et cónsequi.
Qui finis et exórdium rerúmque fons es ómnium, tu solus es solácium, tu certa spes credéntium.
Qui cuncta solus éfficis cunctísque solus súfficis, tu sola lux es ómnibus et prǽmium sperántibus.
Christum rogámus et Patrem, Christi Patrísque Spíritum; unum potens per ómnia, fove precántes, Trínitas.
Hymn to the Blessed Trinity -- Aeterna lux Divinitas
Talking with each of the Divine Persons
We believe in God who is Father, who is Son, who is Holy Spirit. We believe in Persons, and when we talk to God we talk to Persons: or I speak with the Father, or I speak with the Son, or I speak with the Holy Spirit. And this is the faith.
--Pope Francis, Homily, 18 April 2013 http://en.radiovaticana.va/news/2013/04/18/pope:_our_small_daily_encounters_with_christ/en1-684118 of the Vatican Radio website
事實上，我們相信的天主是聖父、聖子和聖神。我們相信天主是“位格”，當我們與天主談話時，我們就在與祂“位格”地談話：與聖父談話，與聖子談話，與聖神談話。這就是信德。

CALLING HAS A TRINITARIAN FORM
We may now go a step further. If we ask ourselves what is the deep meaning of this use of the word “call”, we see that it is one of the doors that open on to the Trinitarian mystery. So far we have spoken of the mystery of the Church of the one God but the Trinitarian mystery also appears. Jesus is the mediator of the call of the Father that happens through the Holy Spirit.
The Christian vocation cannot but have a Trinitarian form, both at the level of the individual person and at the level of the ecclesial community. The mystery of the Church is enlivened throughout by the dynamism of the Holy Spirit, which is a vocational dynamism in the broad and perennial sense, starting with Abraham who was the first to hear God’s call and to respond with faith and action (cf. Gen 12:1-3); until the “behold” of Mary, a perfect reflection of that of the Son of God at the moment when he accepted the Father’s call to come into the world (cf. Heb 10:5-7).
Thus, at the “heart” of the Church — as St Thérèse of the Child Jesus would say — the call of every individual Christian is a Trinitarian mystery: the mystery of the encounter with Jesus, with the Word made flesh, through whom God the Father calls us to communion with him and for this reason wishes to give us his Holy Spirit; and it is precisely through the Spirit that we can respond authentically to Jesus and to the Father within a real, filial relationship. Without the breath of the Holy Spirit the Christian vocation simply cannot be explained, it loses its vitality.
--Benedict XVI, Address to Seminarians of Rome, 2011
Divide the day into three stages. In the morning, when awakening, surrender yourself to the Father, the creator who offers you His Son as food. After Mass surrender yourself to the Son who is already within you, and take you rest in the Holy Spirit, who is Love. ... I asked you to awaken in the arms of the Father because each one of your mornings is a new creation; I have asked you to sleep in the Holy Spirit, because our last breath should be in Love.
(Locution to Gabriela Bossis, God's Spiritual Direction (Messages from Heaven). Transl. Fr Adolf Faroni, SDB. Manila: Don Bosco Press, 2000, p 8)
Nunc Sancte, nobis Spiritus,
unum Patri cum Filio,
dignare promptus ingeri
nostro refusus pectori.
Os, lingua, mens, sensus, vigor
confessionem personent,
flammescat igne caritas,
accendat ardor proximos.
Come, Holy Spirit, who ever One
art with the Father and the Son,
it is the hour, our souls possess
with Thy full flood of holiness.
Let flesh, and heart, and lips, and mind,
sound forth our witness to mankind;
and love light up our mortal frame,
till others catch the living flame.
(Part of Hymn for the Third Hour)
(Attributed to St. Ambrose (340-397), this hymn is for the office of Terce (mid-morning prayer, about 9:00 AM) from the Liturgy of the Hours. It is particularly appropriate for Terce, for it was at that hour the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles on Pentecost (Acts 2:15). English translation by Cardinal Newman (1801-1890).)
