Watch the full-length lyric video here: th-cam.com/users/li... The University of Notre Dame Folk Choir singing "We Are Called" at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart.
First Easter without my wife of 55 years. This was our song because we were called to be Gods example of a great Christian Marriage.
God bless you-
Sorry for your loss 🙏
PERSONALLY. ..
I THINK JESUS...
WOULD LOVE TO SEE HIS CHILDREN PRAISING HIM WITH SUCH JOY...ON THEIR HEARTS..
Haas wrote such beautiful music unfortunately it was not from his heart!
I find the joy on their face and the movement to be refreshing and in fact, it brings a tear to my 78 year old eyes.
To those of you criticizing them for moving, smiling and "bobbing up and down,"Make a JOYFUL noise unto the Lord!" That is what they are doing and I love it! They remind me very much of the choir at Gesu Church in Milwaukee. I LOVE this song. YES! They are in God's house and they are singing. The smiles on their faces are a response to the music as well as to the words they are singing that they are actually listening to and to the meaning!
that's the best part!!
Thank you. It is a "folk choir," after all, typically more informal and, well, folksy. This performance is totally appropriate and inspiring.

Totally, just check in with Director now and then.
Correct! My old choir got completely into songs; swaying, clapping, the Spirit moves you and you move.
The swaying and bobbing is called "worship" ... I love this choir.
As a Catholic, to anyone who says otherwise, there is nothing whatsoever wrong with this in terms of adherence to the Mass and Catholic doctrine. Mass is supposed to be a celebration, one in which we recall the Lord’s death, resurrection and fully giving of Himself through the institution of the Eucharist. We are invited to celebrate in Jesus’ victory, receive Him faithfully, and then, we are sent forth into the world to glorify Him by our example and love. It is a weekly celebration, and hence, worship music is part of our encounters with Christ.
Just wanted to congratulate the ND Folk Choir for 1 MILLION VIEWS of this song. That's quite a feat and an accomplishment for a Catholic Church Hymn in today's times, quite honestly. It took some time, but this choir has done just that. This arrangement is just fantastic!
The thing about this song and some of the other ones that are more contemporary and modern that we hear at mass today- that's all a result of Vatican II, way back in the 60s. The church wanted to move forward in this kind of a direction with mass hymns. This sort of thing was kind of the vision at that time. And I think it's a great thing. Celebrating the Lord should be a JOYOUS and HAPPY thing. And it is great to see the younger generation grasping that, and doing something with it, as we see here.
Verse III and the Chorus still do it for me, sing it with me folks...
Sing, sing a new song!
Sing of the great day, when ALL will be one
God WILL reign
And we'll walk with each other
As sisters and brothers
United in love....!.
Chorus:
We are called to act with justice
We are called to love tenderly
We are called to serve one another
To walk, humbly with God.
Too bad its for a song composed by a sexual predator.
This is how we enjoy the Mass in Africa..even better...great seeing young people in joy
It is beautiful to see young people singing and praising God together.
That we all should sing this as enthusiastically as these young folks! !
I'm a stuffy Presbyterian---one of the Protestant denominations that aren't usually very lively in worship. However, I absolutely love seeing the youth choir making a joyful noise unto the Lord, even with some swaying and dancing. More power to them, and more praise to the Lord! Besides, they are in worship---not skipping Mass.
I find it kind of refreshing to hear the organ along with the drums, guitars, strings and singers. A most joyful celebration.
this song is in the hearts of these young people; they mean it!!!
The faces of joy in serving the Lord!
Seeing these young people gives me joy and consolation for our future.
Never saw such joy and enthusiasm while singing and praising God. I love it and would never get tired of watching this video. Blessed be our God for ever more!
Those HARMONIES!
Come! live in the light!
Shine with the joy and the love of the Lord!
We are called to be light for the kingdom,
to live in the freedom of the city of God!
Refrain: We are called to act with justice.
We are called to love tenderly.
We are called to serve one another, to walk humbly with God.
2. Come! Open your heart!
Show your mercy to all those in fear!
We are called to be hope for the hopeless,
so all hatred and blindness will be no more!
3. Sing! Sing a new song!
Sing of that great day when all will be one!
God will reign and we'll walk with each other as sisters
and brothers united in love!
To see all those beautiful kids singing with such enthusiasm brings me great joy. Thank you for posting. I hope I get to see them in person one day...
I wish all churches had the same religion of songs I mean keeping up with everything even Mass I would really enjoy going back to something like
David Haas’ work is excellent! Amen!
This is definitely the BEST VERSION I have ever heard of this song!!! Look at how much fun they are having singing this great hymn!!!! I love it!!!!! I like how they are just kind of dancing around, and just having fun while worshiping God!!! Make A Joyful Noise!!!!!
I grew up RC. I haven't been to church in years, but this song is a banger.
Stellar performance. I'm certain I've played it 50 times over the years. It gives me shivers, the thrill phenomenon, every time I play it. I wonder where they all are now.
As I get older, I'm preferring traditional hymns with a memory attached to them, but this is one of my favorite contemporary songs. Hearing this choir sing and viewing the youth joyfully expressing those profound words from Micah 6:8 gives me great hope for the future of the Church. It's a perfect reflection of the b'rit olam: that everlasting covenant binding heaven to earth. Thank you so much. You made my day. God bless you all.
Won't hear this song or any composed by David Haas since he admitted to abuse last year.
This song and their rendition fills me with joy… thanks so much ND Folk Choir☘️
I smile every time I hear them sing and every time I see the joy on their faces. Recorded now, over two years ago, these students should remember this posting as one of the greatest achievements of their lives.
Don't ever be afraid to let your joy show through when you sing! It is the joy of the Lord working and if you deny it, then why sing at all? I'm used to a drum set and electric guitars plus a piano and a flute in mass, and I'm Roman Catholic. 8:00 am mass on Sunday is always wonderful because we have a bigger choir and we are always filled with the joy of the Lord. I wish this is what my school choir looked like at our masses, but alas, they are teenagers that like to be "cool" and "still hearted". They look at me with wide eyes when I start singing and moving to the driving beat. I'm known to often start crying in mass because the songs are so amazing. My choir director likes this song a lot( I even believe he sang it in concert with David Haas) and on the third verse, he begins to sing the descant part! An wonder-filled sound that is! I remember the first time he sang this in practice this year. All the newbies do not really get to hear him sing, so when he broke out his top scale descant part, they stopped singing out of shock. Mind you, he normally sings bass below all of us treble voices, but bass singers do have thicker vocal cords, which means they can stretch more. That's why high sopranos can't sing a tenor part. Their vocal cords just don't have that range. Whee! Now you know:) never be afraid of letting the joy of the Lord show. The mass is the most holy thing that most normal people can do, so why make it drab and dry? Go out and sing! And if you can't, show God that you can't. He won't mind. I promise.
Just gave you a thumbs up - what a nice testimony of faith!
I so agree with you! I can’t stand going to any church where the music is dull and stuffy.
Never heard this played on the organ before - it actually sounds way better than I would have expected. Love this!
Your chior makes me feel closer to God. Bless all.of you.
This choir can bring smile across faces and what a joy to watch them. Absolutely fabulous. Lots of Love and peace from India.
Beautiful choir of young people who have joy for the lord
This song is one of my favorites and this version with the choir is one of the best I've heard.
I really love your version of this song. It’s the way it’s supposed to be sung, upbeat, and happy. Our old church used to sing it just like this and I miss it. Especially the lyrics sing, sing a new song. Our current choir Director sings this song more like a dirgewhen we sing it at all. But that’s OK cause I have this and I listen to it a lot. Keep on singing!
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (February 2, Epiphany 4), I played this as the Hymn of the Day. It is #720 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
mkl62 I'm from SC..love this song and SC :-)
We ELCA people love this song !
what a great choir. i wish i could sing with them.
We definitely need enthusiasm and joy in our worship amen
The more I watch this there are a few girls clearly emotional. It’s a good thing. They felt something and made a connection spiritually. Plus I just love this song
How happy they are! Joy is on their faces. Sweet.
Beautiful singing the joyous faces of those who are called💃🏿
You guys saved my sister and I. Thank you.
It is no small accomplishment to write a song that combines moving lyrics with a memorable melody. Dr. Haas has achieved them both.
This is so beautiful. It is really making me miss in-person and packed Masses. I cannot wait until we can all come together (physically) and sing again!
Me too 🌈
I’ve been back to mass in person since Pentecost weekend and have been singing in my church’s choir loft since then.
We have sung this multiple times in the United Methodist Church. It is a great anthem for the Catholics as well as the Methodists.
Man, I miss music like this...where people are happy and smiling and singing at Mass. I can't find anything like this in Chicago. I use to love celebrating the Mass. Now....I just got to Mass...and hope it isn't awful.
I agree! My parents have a wonderful Catholic Church they attend, where it feels like we are actually celebrating the Mass - celebrating! I'm in a rural area and Mass here feels like a dull obligation, hardly a joyful celebration of Christ's presence among us! And I SO miss this music. I grew up with this music, and Mass was a time I looked forward to, even as a teenager.
It is a shame that some of our brothers and sisters believe solemn worship is proper. In my parish St. Joseph- Old Mission San Jose, the first parish established in what is now known as the Diocese of Oakland, we celebrate and sing. When Mass is over we applaud our God on our joy for giving us the Mass where we worship Him and give Him thanks.
@@wpramos333 I get where you're coming from, but many Catholics believe in solemn prayer is much better for the soul, as many popes have said that noisy instruments like the guitar and piano should not be played.
@@wpramos333 And I a lot of people do this, but you shouldn't applaud because it's prayer and not a performance.
@@pitru2k194 Brother Pit, why should we not express our joy as Mass has ended? It is your wrong assumption that the applause is directed at a human, like choir, music, presider or Lectors. Our applause is directed at our Triune God for providing us with a manner to joyously worship and celebrate Father, Son and Spirit. "I rejoiced when I heard them say, 'Let us go to the Lord's house." Ps 122
Beautiful rendition by a group of young people reminding us of God's call for us!
Awesome you can feel the spirit of God in every word they sing.
I can feel the passion way over here. Great vibe. Well done gang!
Alleluia!!!! Praise be to God💕😇
Definitely a song to lift your spirits
They look so happy! I wish my church were like this. Props to you guys. This makes me want to actively ENGAGE and sing and dance!
Great Singing guys! The manner of your singing shows how much you love a God who loves, forgives and never abandons. That's why your singing expresses your desire to be of service to his people and his Church! God Bless you guys! I hope that you will still find time to be together and worship our Great God through music in the Celebration of the Most Holy Eucharist! AMRG
This is lovely... I love the passion and the joy that is manifested by the lovely choir.
May God continue to bless all of you and may you guys continue to be used by God to minister God's love to all.
I see joy and peace. So uplifting to watch.
This is absolutely wonderful!!! So vibrant, so joyful, so full of Love for the Lord, I wish all masses had a choir like this, absolutely LOVE IT!
there is only one word to say "beautiful"
I absolutely LOVE this! The joy, the music, the harmonies...and above all - the message of the song delivered in such a captivating way. I am seriously addicted to this...I've listened to it/watched it dozens of times now and it gets stuck in my head for days...and I'm not complaining about that at all. Please continue to post more videos of this choir!
listen to the 2015 ND choir singing 'I will raise you up' if you want to be inspired!
Me too! I play it in the morning to rev me up for the day.
Richard Hansen totally touches my heart
Love this!
I agree with most of these comments below. Hearing all the voices of the worshipers join together in such a harmonious and well balanced version of this hymn is nothing short of magnificent. *goosebumps*
A True Expression of Joy and Happiness-Youth singing the Gospel-How can anyone criticize such a beautiful thing?
I LOVE the enthusiasm by the young woman wearing the tan sweater in the center of the group. Along with her smile, it is VERY contagious. 👍🏻👍🏻
Yes indeed! I say the same!
A joyful noise.
I went to a Catholic grade school where we went to mass often and whenever this song came up everyone got so fired up
My favorite hymns...beautiful voices! God bless
I love traditional Mass music- chant, introits, communion antiphons- but I just love this version of this song. It makes me happy to see the group singing with such love and joy, and has created a soft spot in my heart for this song.
Beautiful Catholic Hymn
PRAISE JESUS HE IS THE SON OF GOD PRAISE HIS NAME SHOUT IT OUT THAT HE LIVES WITHEN US HE ID WATCHING YOU
We Have risen one more step closer heaven!
Amen, still listening in June 2023 ❤️
Thanks for sharing! Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come into his presence with singing. Psalm 100:1-2
Love it. The energy is off the charts. Well done gang.
Bringing Joy .Wonderful rendition of this song. Every time I hear them they warm my heart for the Lord.
I love their joy in the presence of God. Our God could dance with His children! Amen!
Love Notre Dame folk music they are so talented students singing gods songs dancing around it’s beautiful to see love Notre Dame music
Just love how much fun they are having! The prayer of music should be lively and joyful!
We are called indeed!!
What a wonderful rendition of this hymn by the ND Folk Choir!
All the lyrics point to our loving God and one another. Then there is the great hope of salvation Christ brought to all of us through His passion, death, and resurrection we all share that is so emphatically sung in the final verse . . .
Sing! Sing a new Song!
Sing of that great day when all will be one!
God Will Reign and we'll walk with each other as sisters and brothers united in love!
This group you can clearly see has been set a fire with the Holy Spirit and are so filled with such a holy joy and enthusiasm. Bless everyone of them.
Beautiful song & this song is full of joy happiness, so lively
That was great it belongs in a Revival
Beautiful! Makes one proud to be a Roman Catholic to see so many joyous voices raising their vices in unity for the great glory of Christ!
Beautiful
Beautiful. I remember when Mass was inspirational and joyful like this. Sadly this kind of Mass is hard to find these days.
I think the scandals that have affected the church over the past decade have permanently damaged the reputation of the church and took inspiration and joy with it.
I love this really...youthful singing this is what we need for the new generation to appreciate what they are doing, offering their talent and the joy of singing and the spirit of encouraging and motivation for the youth
sang this in Mass this morning - it's a joyful song , so why shouldn't these kids look like they are having fun sharing it
Mass is supposed to be a celebration!!!
This is what joy is. This is what joy looks like. Wonderful!
Thank you guys for sharing! What a joyful and beautiful rendition! I like you see guys happy and alive singing the song of grace!
I can listen for hours with this song
Praise be to God.
Love the song! I am proud to be a Catholic. This is the church of the whole world.
God bless Catholic church.
I heard this song for the first time today. Came to TH-cam to find a version I could download. I just love seeing all these young adult singing with such enthusiasm! What a blessing. Thank you.
beuatiful
Love this ......5678.....Praise the Lord .....
❤❤❤❤ This beautiful hymn brings such joy to me. I give God thanks for me to be able to enjoy these young people committing themselves in spreading the live of God in this Worshipful hymn. As the saying goes: when you sing, you pray twice. They are alive in the spirit. KEEP ON SINGING❤❤❤❤
True talent, never heard better. Just watched this video 10 times
Absolute Perfection!!!!!! Only the Beautiful voices/instruments are larger than the Great Enthusiasm ftom All! Notice the blonde in green wiping tears bc she's sooo joyful! 👏👏👏👏👏
Happy, to see they are happy 🎆
This amazing song and performance always makes me so happy I responded to my call to be a Brother. Every time, I go to Notre Dame, I can just feel the joy of Catholicism.
Such a beautiful song! Thank you!!
This is utterly fantastic. I wish my choir was this amazing at mass. Also I've never heard this played on organ before, a nice change instead of piano
Wow! Really enjoyed both seeing and hearing such a joyful, inspired, and inspiring rendition of this great song. As a music minister and Notre Dame alum, I feel very blessed to have been a part of this faith community and its music ministry back in the early 80s and to have that connection be refreshed and renewed in this absolutely delightful arrangement. Steve Warner and the Notre Dame community continue to set the bar high for musical and liturgical excellence.
What a joyous group! I love a more traditional, reflective liturgy, but the smiles and excitement as they sing is contagious! If only all Christians could be this joyful in the House of the Lord!
this brings me so much happiness, it reminds me of something I forgot, so much joy. thank you all for singing it with so much enthusiasm and so cheerfully. the best song. gave me the feels.❤❤☥
We attended Mass here while visiting the Basilica a couple years ago and they sang this as the final hymn. Walked out of there with goosebumps. Thanks for posting!
Such an awesome performance - I love the spirit of the singers! So happy! THAT's how to Praise God! :)
