Organizers of Pope Francis' visit to the Philippines have been requested parishes to have nine songs — one of them reflecting the plight of victims of recent calamities the Pope will break bread with — sung during mass.
"We request that the songs be sung in your parish Masses, the Gloria in the remaining Sundays in Ordinary Time, Simbang Gabi and the Christmas season," organizers said on social media and online.
Notable in the list of songs is "Laudate Dominum" by Fr. Manuel Fransisco, SJ. The song contains lyrics that refer to devastation, disease and great loss, and how people find refuge in God.
Aside from "Laudate Dominum", the organizers included the following songs:
Alay sa Diyos
Aleluya, Credo
Glory to God
Penitential Rite
Santo
Si Kristo
Tinapay ng Buhay
Pope Francis is due to visit the Philippines from Jan. 15 to 19.
His itinerary includes events in Manila and Leyte. Leyte is among the areas devastated by super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan), which left more than 6,300 dead last year.
