For prayer this morning, here's a new song, One Church, One People, which was written as the theme music for Pope Francis' upcoming papal visit to Singapore.
Pope Francis will visit the Southeast Asian countries of Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor, and Singapore from Sept. 2 - 13. The 11-day multi-country trip will be the longest papal trip of Francis’ papacy.
The Catholic community in Singapore has released a theme song for Pope Francis’ upcoming visit to the country.
The song, entitled One Church, One People, was composed by Ethan Hsu, a founding member of the Singaporean band Mystic Font and parishioner of the Church of Saint Mary of the Angels.

Verse 1
Genesis – God made the universe and saw it was good
Humanity – Made in God’s image and He saw it was good
Freedom – To liberate those from oppression Salvation!
The Father, Son and Holy Spirit
A Perfect Trinity
Who binds us through the ages in Faith, Hope & Charity
We are One Church made Holy in the Lord
Led by the Spirit, One People of God
We will rise with Him!
Jesus Christ our King!
Together we are light for the world!
Sealed by the Covenant, we walk by Faith
The living word of God will pave the way
We will sing His praise!
And proclaim His name!
And all generations will know the glory of God!
Verse 2
Vanity – Leads us away from God when we chase the wrong things
Divinity – The Son of God was sent to bring us back to Him
Our Mission – To build His Kingdom and To love one another
The Father, Son and Holy Spirit
A Perfect Trinity
Who binds us through the ages in Faith, Hope & Charity
Chorus
Bridge
There are many rooms in the house of the Lord (for all)
A place for you and me if we answer the call (sweet Jesus)
We are chosen for this journey
And the light of Christ in us will live on and on!
On and on!
Chorus x2
And all generations will know (x2)
The glory of God! (x3)
