Creidim mar chreideas an eaglais Creidim mar chreideas an eaglais; a fhir nach leanann lorg Dé, seol do mheanmain go múr nimhe, meabhraigh do rún cridhe an chré. Do bhíodhbhaidh ó bheid 'gud leanmhain go lá an bháis ní beag an ruaig ar a roimhéad théid i dtarbha ná léig coimhéad th'anma uaid. Cré na n-asbal an t-iúl fíre ar feadh do laoi ná léig thort; maith an leigheas í ar an ainbhios, is í cheileas t'aimhleas ort. Gurab i n-aoinDia a-tá an Tríonóid tuig, a dhuine, a-deir an chré; creid uaim gurab í do riaghail, ná bí ag buain re diamhair nDé. I nDia Athar is eadh chreidim; is cóir adhradh don iúl ghlan más ál géarachadh an ghrádha grádh m'éanAthar dála dhamh. 'N-a dhiaidh do chruthuigh an chruinne, do chum neamh gá neart as mhó? a ndubhart do dhearbh an leabhar, sealbh 'n-a chumhacht dleaghar dhó. Creidim i n-éanmhac an Athar Íosa Críosd ór ghein gach maith go mbí re ngach duine dín-ne; don uile is rí fíre an flaith. Gabhais toircheas ón treas phearsain; a pór na ngrás do ghein sé gan fhear do bhuain ris an mbanóigh; ní fuair bean anóir mar é. Druim ar tosach tug re a chineadh ar cóir nDé go ndeachaidh brat; tug a aghaidh res an uile an adhaigh rug Muire mac. Fuair fa Phons Pioláid páis croiche, cáin an chroinn do chúitigh sí; gur íoc a bhás coir a chloinne toil na ngrás do-roinne an Rí. Do luigh san uaigh, do airg Ifreann, do éirigh aisde an treas tráth; dlighidh seadh do chur sa chreideamh, a dhul ar neamh creideadh cách. A Athair na n-uile chumhacht ní ceannas nar chúitigh sé an fáidh ag a bhfuil ar dtreise do shuidh dod láimh dheis-se, a Dhé. Béaraidh an lá bhias 'n-a bhreitheamh breath na marbh is breath na mbeo; gach neach le ngabhair a ghrása raghaidh breath an lá-sa leo. Creidim sa Sbiorad naomh neamhdha do-ní inneall don iúl chlaon; a ionad gomadh hé an cridhe Sbiorad Dé nimhe na naomh. An eaglas Chatoilgeach chreidim cia agaibh nachar oil sí? olc bean fa dalta do dhamnadh; sreabh glanta na n-anman í. ceangladh cumann a gcuing chrábhaidh ná cuir díot; do-bhéara an flaith duid, a dhuine, cuid dá maith uile 'n-a íoc. Dá mbeath an aithrighe iomlán ar mh'anmain ní fúigfeadh sal; gabhar síodh ar son an pheacaidh a chor dhíom ní deacair dhamh. I bParrthas nó i bpianaibh Ifrinn d'éis na breithe beid 'n-a ndís; rachaidh fan anmain uair eile truaill don talmhain reimhe a-rís. Ní thuigid mar táid gá mealladh; mairg do thréigfeadh teach na ngrás ar sheal ngearr do ghlóir an bheatha; do b'fhearr dhóibh beatha gan bhás. Ós éigean dúinn dul i n-umhla, d'éisteacht an cheoil a-tá thuas leag do sheol, a fhir an uabhair; ceol mar sin ní chualaidh cluas. Do na lochtaibh nochar leigheas i ló meadhaighthe mhóir Dé ní céaltar an locht as lugha corp dá ndéantar crumha is cré. Cre. Nír chreid riamh go raibhe an saoghal San Froinnséis ler fuilngeadh broid acht mar thuile ag teacht re fánaidh; tearc duine crábhaidh do chroid. Creidim.
