Sacred Music

“Religious singing by the people is to be intelligently fostered so that in devotions and sacred exercise, as also during liturgical services, the voices of the faithful may ring out.”

Music of the week

Praise, my soul, the King of heaven; To his feet your tribute bring. Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, Evermore his praises sing: Alleluia, alleluia, Praise the everlasting King.

Praise him for his grace and favor To our fathers in distress; Praise him, still the same as ever, Slow to chide, and swift to bless. Alleluia, alleluia: Glorious in his faithfulness.

Fatherlike he tends and spares us; Well our feeble frame he knows. In his hand he gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes. Alleluia, alleluia, Widely yet his mercy flows.

Frail as summer’s flow’r we flourish, Blows the wind and it is gone; But while mortals rise and perish Our God lives unchanging on, Alleluia, alleluia, Praise the high eternal One.

Angels, help us to adore him; You behold him face to face; Sun and moon, bow down before him, Dwellers all in time and space. Alleluia, alleluia, Praise with us the God of grace.

“In the Latin Church, the pipe organ is to be held in high esteem, for it is the traditional musical instrument which adds a wonderful splendor to the Church’s ceremonies and powerfully lifts up man’s mind to God and to higher things.”
(
Constitution of the Sacred Liturgy, Second Vatican Council, paragraph 120)
