O Coração da Trindade

Irmã Míria T. Kolling's song 'O Coração da Trindade' delves into the profound spiritual and theological themes of the Holy Trinity, emphasizing the interconnectedness of creation, humanity, and divine love. The lyrics begin by portraying the Trinity as the source of all harmony, from which the stars, the world, and humanity itself emerged. This opening verse sets the stage for a reflection on the perfect paradise that humanity dreams of, a paradise that can only be cultivated or renounced through the exercise of freedom.

The song continues by highlighting the pivotal role of Mary, whose 'yes' was foreseen by the heart of the Trinity from the beginning. This acknowledgment of Mary's significance underscores the importance of human cooperation in the divine plan. The lyrics then shift to a contemplation of human destiny, inscribed within the heart of the Trinity, where all people are seen as brothers and sisters in a transient world. However, the song also warns of the dangers of ambition and arrogance, which can lead to the loss of this divine harmony. Despite these human failings, the song reassures that God does not abandon humanity, as evidenced by the prophets who continue to convey God's unwavering presence.

In the final verses, the song emphasizes God's deep commitment to humanity, describing how the heart of the Trinity always finds a way to hear the people's cries and share in their suffering. This divine solidarity is most profoundly expressed through the incarnation of God as a child, making God a brother to all in this world. The song concludes with a powerful affirmation of the enduring love of God, a love that encompasses the Father, the Spirit, and the Son, and triumphs over suffering and death. This divine love also chooses Mary as a mother to comfort and encourage humanity, reinforcing the theme of divine and human interconnectedness.
