“Thine Be the Glory”

Sacred Spaces

“Thine Be the Glory” (originally “À toi la gloire” in French) is a Christian hymn written by Swiss pastor and hymnwriter Edmond Louis Budry in 1884. The hymn was composed to celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, making it particularly associated with Easter. Budry, a minister in the Reformed Church of Vevey, Switzerland, wrote the text in French, inspired by the triumphant and victorious nature of Christ’s resurrection.

The tune commonly used for the hymn is adapted from a piece in George Frideric Handel’s oratorio Judas Maccabaeus (1747), specifically the chorus “See, the Conqu’ring Hero Comes.” This lively and majestic melody was arranged for the hymn by 1885, when the text and tune were first published together in the Swiss hymnal L’Organiste. The English translation, which begins “Thine be the glory, risen, conqu’ring Son,” was made by Richard Birch Hoyle in 1923, enabling the hymn to gain widespread popularity in English-speaking congregations.

The hymn’s text draws heavily on biblical themes, particularly from the New Testament accounts of the Resurrection (e.g., Matthew 28, 1 Corinthians 15). It emphasizes Christ’s victory over death, the hope of eternal life, and the call for believers to offer praise and glory to God.

 

Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son;
endless is the victory, thou o’er death hast won;
angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave clothes where thy body lay.

Refrain:
Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son,
Endless is the vict’ry, thou o’er death hast won.

Lo! Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
Lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
let the Church with gladness, hymns of triumph sing;
for her Lord now liveth, death hath lost its sting.

No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life;
life is naught without thee; aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors, through thy deathless love:
bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above.

International Standard Classification of Education

“Etudes Graphiques” | Vincent van Gogh 1853-1890

“I am not an Athenian or a Greek,

but a citizen of the world.”

— (Plato quoting Socrates, Phaedo 64a)

 

ISCED 2011 is an updated version of the previous classification, ISCED 1997, and provides a framework for organizing education programs according to their level of complexity and content. The classification is designed to facilitate the comparison of education systems across countries and regions, and to improve the collection, reporting, and analysis of education statistics.

ISCED 2011 introduces several changes and updates, such as the introduction of a new level of education called “early childhood education,” the expansion of the tertiary education level to include short-cycle tertiary education, and the inclusion of a separate category for vocational education at the secondary level. The classification also includes detailed descriptions of the content and characteristics of each education level, as well as guidelines for classifying educational programs that do not fit neatly into the existing categories.

ISCED 2011 is widely used by national and international organizations, including UNESCO, to collect and report education data, and it provides a common language for discussing education across borders.



Sacred Spaces

“We need the sense of the sacred, and the sense that things transcend our grasp.

We need to know that we are dependent on others,

and that the condition of our existence is the existence of others.”

— Sir Roger Scruton

“View of Eton College Chapel” 1834 William Ingalton

Natural Religion

The founding of many education communities is inspired by faith communities.   In many of them the place of worship was the very first building.   College and university chapels are central places of worship for students, staff and faculty, and provide a space for solitude and reflection.  A place for feeling at home in the world.

International Building Code | Section 303.4 Assembly Group A-3

There are several hundred technical standards, or parts of standards,  that govern how churches and chapels are made safe and sustainable.  Owing to innovations in construction, operation and management methods, those standards move, ever so slightly, on a near-daily basis.  They are highly interdependent; confounded by county-level adaptations; and impossible to harmonize by adoption cycle.  That movement tracked here as best we can within the limit of our resources and priorities.  That’s why it’s best to simply click into our daily colloquia if you have a question or need guidance.

Climate Psychosis

“The only thing worse than religion is lack of religion”

— Edmund Burke

 

“It is impolite to make fun of other people’s religion. 

If you cannot persuade a population to buy into your oligarchic ambitions

then turn those ambitions into a religion.”

— Michael A. Anthony, P.E.

University of Michigan, ’83 and ’88 (Retired) 

 

A conversation with Bjorn Lomborg, a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution, the president of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, and one of the foremost climate experts in the world today. His new book — “False Alarm: How Climate Change Panic Costs Us Trillions, Hurts the Poor, and Fails to Fix the Planet” — is an argument for treating climate as a serious problem but not an extinction-level event requiring such severe and drastic steps as rewiring a large part of the culture and the economy.

How easy it is to make people believe a lie, and [how] hard it is to undo that work again! - Mark Twain
