- One of the most beautiful things in the worship of Our Lord at Mass is music. Marian Postulant Austin explains how sacred music, the song and the language of the angels, is a gift from God that gives expression to the soul and dignifies ritual and worship. Then hear from "Floriani," a talented group of men who believe in the importance of fostering a rebirth in sacred music.
Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm EST, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am EST. Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!

Many thanks to you, Fr Chris and Novice Austin for this outstanding episode. Austin’s deep appreciation for his musical talent and knowledge that it’s a gift from God was so evident in his verbal explanations and descriptions. It was striking to hear him, relate that he was told that “chant is the breath of the heart.” Austin is a wonderful blessing to the Marian community. I am thankful that God chose you and I pray for you Austin as you continue on in your vocation. I am happy for you, that you have entered the Novitiate, but sad that we will no longer regularly hear you beautiful voice on the live stream from the National Shrine. Thank you Father Chris for this very special episode. Also, it was great to have Father Anthony check in with us on our Lenten journey. I know I can do better, and I am grateful for the mercy of God, which gives me hope every day.
My son is studying in St. Michael Choir School in Toronto Canada wherein sacred music is preserve and heard for years and during mass at St. Michael Cathedral Basilica in Toronto,Canada. In 1955, the school was granted affiliation with the Pontifical Institute of Sacred Music, becoming one of six choirs and choir schools in the world to share this affiliation. Bis Orat Qui Cantat ( He who sings well, pray twice). Thank you Father Chris and Novice Austin for this episode.
God bless your son
My two sons graduated from St Michael's Choir School too; Now one an Epidemiologist and one Chartered Accountant. I used to be the Vice -President at the School Council etc. May God bless and protect the St Michael's Choir School.
What a beautiful voice Austin has! Very moving. Thank you and God bless you for sharing your gift
Good job Austin great stuff nice voice I love listening to all music and everything music relax me and helps I use it I have a disability and everything thank you it helps me a lot and everything
“Lo, How A Rose E’er Blooming”, is one of my favorite Christmas songs🙏
Thank you, father, for exposing many Catholics about the Gregorian chant is powerful for evil to disperse in the secret space. It is also glorifying our Lord as a beautiful prayer and reverence. God bless you, and your ministry always expose your parishioners as well as your followers, the beauty of our faith, so that we can become saints and give to humanity. Amen.🙏⛪️🌹
Thank you Father Chris for an awesome talk with Novice Austin and Father Anthony. Thank you Father Anthony for encouraging me to step up on my lent failures. I love your singing Novice Austin. What a beautiful gift! Thank you for sharing with us. God bless you! 🙏🙏❤️
Great teaching and wonderful voice Austin
I have to confess that I have fallen in love with The Traditional Latin Mass and Traditional Latin Chants. Deo gratias ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you and God bless you and keep you safe 🙏
Music and all of this helps me with my disability and everything and much more I love it God bless and everything thank you
May God bless you, Fernando.
When a group sings or chants together it syncs their brainwaves
I love sacred music! I have always especially loved the beautiful sacred music of the Living Divine Mercy TV show at the beginning and at the end of the show! Thank you for this segment!
Thank you Father Chris Novice Austin for this under standing of spirit of songs. I sing in my choir and our music that our director picks for us is so wonderful to sing on Sunday. There are times as we sing a feeling comes over me that I start to cry and when mass is over, I leave with a warm feeling inside and smile on my face. Thank you both and God bless you all.😇
Fantastic music, love from the soul. Thank you.
Thank you helps me a lot and everything thank you God bless
Is there a good link for purchasing their music?
I’m gonna have to buy this. I listen to Gregorian chant when I sleep and do adoration…

Wonderful! Thank you for your fiat!
Good night to the Marians Fathers, I live in Mexico, and once my sister was taken sacred music at the Seminary, when her group finished the course, they have a complete mass using the knowledges learned. When I was there, I felt heaven on earth. I have never experienced another mass like it.
I would like you to consider filming one mass of the liturgy cycle with all the elements of sacred music, so we can feel and experience the grestness of them.
Thank you very much for your kind reading of this message.
God bless you all . From Mexico with love and respect.
My dear Austin I am so beyond proud of you and blessed to know that God has you in a very special place for all of us to learn from you. Thank you for educating us and sharing your love for God in so many beautiful ways.
Why am i having chills while hearing him sing. Glory be to God
Looking forward to the time that music leaders learn chant, and leave some of the 70's folksy guitar Masses behind.
Amen. That is why I love the music from the National shrine. It is always reverent
I get sung Lauds and Vespers from a Dominican community almost every day [and sometimes Compline].
There’s is an option to play chant in the background on the Amen app. This I do daily.
May GOD keep you In his HOLY HANDS and HEART AMEN
I have a small group of friends I sing with. They are Protestants, but we have done Lo, How a Rose Ever Blooming in 3 part acapella. We could definitely get into adding more chants. I sent this video to her.
Austin = Amazing
Well done! Id love to buy your CD in the gift shop!
Would that ALL parishes had such music at Mass❤
🎶it made my heart fluttered💓God how joyful to hear the sound feel the vibrations see the gift You have given us ❤🛐✝️🌟
Thank you so much for this sharing on Sacred Music.
I loved this episode. I sang in choirs for 50 years. I retired because I wanted to pray more at the time of Eucharist. My parish during Lent sing the Holy Holy Holy in Latin and Agnes Dei. Singing these sends chills. I pray Latin can continue as part of the mass. Maybe in song!
I always say that Catholic Liturgy, with his prayers and hymns, transports man to heaven as if he was in the kingdom. That's why I'm proud to be a Catholic. May the Lord bless everyone who serves in Mass, priests, deacons, and people who all praise the Lord Jesus Christ.
We have a family in our parish who sometimes lead music during the Mass. The husband taught his young daughter to chant. Her voice is so pure. The wife harmonises beautifully. Sadly they will be leaving our parish later this month. Music ministry is so important.
Thank you every one great show this week 😊
❤❤❤
wow...very well spoken Austin....hopefully you will be able to present more in future programs
I'm a devout Catholic and a drummer and bass player and I'm forced to praise God at NDC churches with my instrument because of the Mass's general exclusion of stringed and percussive instruments. I wish it wasn't that way.
Thank you for this. Beautiful singing!
I was so pleased to see this on the music of the Church.
I am also very proud and blessed that my grandchildren are learning this music and singing/performing at their school, St. J P II Classical school and Chesterton Academy in Green Bay, WI. They also have the same choir directors leading the choirs at St. Patrick's Oratory, Institute Of Christ the King Sovereign Priest's parish. It is so beautiful and keeping ageless Masses and hymns alive. When the students, (and I have to say, every student is in the choir, not like high school sports for instance, with only a few participating,) presented a concert at St. Norbert's College, the bishop's right hand man was heard saying that this gave him hope for the youth. They were honored to sing for Bishop Ricken as well!
Oh, how I hope this music will come back in the church, where I live we don't have a traditional latin mass. I can not stand the bands, guitar, and new again singing. I can't even concentrate or pray. It's very distractive...
Too bad something happened to my vocal cords, ( sometimes no sound at all comes out when I try to sing certain notes) I would have loved to serenade our Lord! Oh well, guess I will have to wait until I get to Heaven! ❤️✝️🕊
This what I love this soul peaceful music secret not the loud one please 🙏…it’s a prayer
What a wonderfully informative video! Thank you very much Postulant Austin and Marian Fathers, for these videos of faith formation.
Thank you Fr.Chris for another beautiful episode. Thank you too, Novice Brother Austin, so you are the voice which we hear singing beautifully during the mass. God bless you both.
Thank you, Fr. Chris, for this beautiful episode on Sacred Music and to Postulant Austin for explaining it to us. It made me recall the Gregorian chants I participated in the monastery of the Carmelites as a nun. It was indeed so heavenly that one would constantly desire to spend one’s life chanting the sacred songs. The Mother Prioress once said: “ A heart of song is a heart of love, a singing heart is a godlike heart.”
In our parish church, there’s a Gregorian chant on the first Saturday of the month for the anticipated Sunday mass. Some elderly people have already memorised the chant specially the Pater Noster. We’re so glad that the Gregorian chant has still a special place in the Eucharistic celebration in our church. All praise,honor and glory be to God forever.
I introduce Fr.ChrisAlar to my family and friends as "My Big Daddy" (spiritual) 😊.
I always look forward to his talks.
Thank you for sharing and God bless you!
pretty ,i like chants ,esp mystic chants ,can you reccomend some
When our Lord was chained to the stone each link of the chain is our sins 🙏💕🙏
I love it ❤when I can’t sleep I put Gregorian music and I am in peace
Thank you 🙏
Thank you, Father Chris! GOD bless you all ❤❤❤
Thank you Father Chris for this outstanding episode. You look quite different in white, father :-)
Why is Fr. Chris wearing white?
Beautiful 🙌🏻🕊🌹🎼
I noticed the Priests singing did NOT have the White Collar underneath their Garb. Why is that?!
They're not priests! They're laymen, but when singing, traditional male cantors often wear cassocks without the collar
@@agostino4966 Learn something new everyday. Thank-You!!!!
Soul heavenly music ❤
Thank you and God bless you, Austin for your presentation and your voice from God. You are such a wonderful addition to the Marian Fathers and family. These teachings from the Shrine are so outreaching to the world; Wednesday and Saturday are so special for these holy presentations. Thanks to Father Chris and all of you. 🙏🏼
Amen. I couldn’t agree more. May God bless you, Joanne

If you have a musical voice “THANK GOD”. I cannot sing, can’t even hum a tune. My dream of heaven is being able to have a lovely, tuneful voice 🙏✝️🙏
The Gregorian calendar is identicał to the Jułian Calendar when calculating leap years. That is one day is added to the calendar every four years, however, years divisible by 100 AND not divisible by 400, are NOT LEAP YEARS according to the Gregorian Calendar. The Julia n Calendar is

Any comments on new music; that composed/written after say - 1970. I avoid singing new music when sung in church. Just seems to me nothing is Holy after 1969.
This episode of “Living Divine Mercy” really touched my heart in a special way. My son has played the piano for mass since middle school and I sing in my church choir. We are so very blessed by the musical talents of Novice Austin and he did a lovely job explaining the role of music at mass in this show. My gratitude also goes out to Br Ken. I love to sing along with both of them during the livestream masses. Their music really makes mass at The National Shrine of The Divine Mercy extra-special. God bless them both!! 🎼🎶🎵
The music is beautiful but it isn’t always uplifting to those of us listening in the pews . We want to know the words without reading along. I worship the Lord when I’m singing English at Mass. I understand some of it isn’t good and should be removed. I’m Praying for new holy English hymns.
Chris, so much of what I believe about my existence is bound up for me in my faith in God and the promise of eternal life. Where it not for this all those random things that happen in my life would take me to a life of sadness and depression. "Quien a Dios tiene, nada le falta".(St. Teresa of Avila). A prayer for you and your family.
What a wonderful presentation by novice Austin!
Fr. Chris, what does it mean when your rosary has been broken? Is it a sign that something bad will happen because "signal graces" are promised to those who always pray it?
Lord i offer you Christopher Johnson please you only the one can change his devil attitude with all this things happening to his life .I forgive him show him the way to be a good person and realise what his doing to me.amen🙏
OMG❣️😳 I didn’t expect that awesome voice; God has blessed you with a beautiful gift❣️🙏🏾📿🙏🏾
Gregorian and Orthodox Chants is so much BETTER than protestant christian music. Protestant christian music SUCKS!!!! It sounds soooooo much like the worlds music. This is so much better amen!!!!!
Different culture and interpretation, different operating system
Beautiful beautiful🥰❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
God has been so merciful to me I exhalt his name now and everyday of my life. The spoken words of this channel has been a daily motivation for me and my family and I am also grateful for the opportunity to financial freedom. God is indeed wonderful, $80k monthly to my portfolio is no joke. Thank you lord 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
We have a couple in our parish, the Florianis
off by 11 minutes every solar year.
Why is Fr. Alar wearing white?
❤️🙏🏻❤️Thank you Father Chris❤
Thank you
Came for the music not the speech 😂
What does a Provincial Superior Do? His Father Chris the boss?
Father Chris is the Provincial Superior for the Marian community in North America and Argentina. I believe that entails the ultimate responsibility for the day-to-day operations for managing all aspects of the community. He works very hours as superior. Plus, he maintains a rigourous schedule of Priestly duties, such as celebrating MASS and the sacraments, visiting the sick, daily prayer time, production of this weekly TV show. He works long days and always places the needs of the community ahead of his need to eat and sleep, We Marian helpers pray for his safety health and protection along with the other members of the Marian community.
