The Glory Be, also known as the Gloria Patri, is a short doxology used in the Catholic Church and other Christian denominations. The prayer praises God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The English version of the Glory Be prayer is: 'Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.'
