*Affirmation of Faith
I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; the third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

In calm and comfort, storm and strife, Christ be my truth, as Christ my way, My Lord, my breath, my life. Jesus my life, my Lord, my breath, The pulse and beat of all my years, Constant alike in life and death -- And when eternal day appears, My life, my Lord, my breath.
