A Song for Mary played by Malabon Community Band

ATENEO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION 2019

[@MichaelPhilipMaunes]

Also this song is a fitting tribute to former president Benigno Aquino III, also a proud alumnus of Ateneo De Manila University. Rest in peace, former president Benigno Aquino III. Condolences to the Aquino family.

We stand on a hill between the earth and sky. Now all is still where Loyola's colors fly. Our course is run and the setting sun ends Ateneo's day. Eyes are dry at the last goodbye; this is the Ateneo way. Mary for you! For your white and blue! We pray you'll keep us, Mary, constantly true! We pray you'll keep us, Mary, faithful to you! Down from the hill, down to the world go I; rememb'ring still, how the bright Blue Eagles fly. Through joys and tears, through the laughing years, we sing our battle song: Win or lose, it’s the school we choose; This is the place where we belong! Mary for you! For your white and blue! We pray you'll keep us, Mary, constantly true! We pray you'll keep us, Mary, faithful to you!

I'm an Atenean and now a Canadian. Sometimes I get mixed up when singing the National Anthem and A Song for Mary. :)

CONSECRATION TO THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST Conscious, Merciful Savior, of my nothingness and of Thy sublimity, I cast myself at Thy feet and thank Thee for the many proofs of Thy grace shown unto me, Thy ungrateful creature. I thank Thee especially for delivering me by Thy Precious Blood from the destructive power of Satan. In the presence of my dear Mother Mary, my Guardian Angel, my patron Saint, and the whole company of Heaven - I dedicate myself voluntarily with a sincere heart, O dearest Jesus, to the Precious Blood by which Thou hast redeemed the world from sin, death,and Hell. I promise Thee, with the help of Thy grace and to the utmost of my strength, to stir up and foster devotion to Thy Precious Blood, the price of our redemption so that Thy adorable Blood may be honored and glorified by all. In this way, I wish to make reparation for my disloyalty towards Thy Precious Blood of love and to make satisfaction to Thee for the many profanations that men commit against that precious price of their salvation. O would that my own sins, my coldness, and all the acts of disrespect I have ever committed against Thee, O Holy Precious Blood, could be undone. Behold, O dearest Jesus, I offer to Thee the love, honor, and adoration which Thy Most Holy Mother, Thy faithful disciples, and all the Saints have offered to Thy Precious Blood. I ask Thee to forget my earlier faithlessness and coldness and to forgive all who offend Thee. Sprinkle me, O Divine Savior, and all men with Thy Precious Blood so that we, O Crucified Love, may love Thee from now on with all our hearts and worthily honor the price of our salvation. Amen. We fly to Your patronage , O Holy Mother of God. Despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us from all dangers, O ever Glorious and Blessed Virgin. Amen. For All Benefactors of This Devotion OUR FATHER...HAIL MARY..GLORY BE...

Imagine this sung in front of Justin Trudeau

[@tsarbombawithinternetconne875]

Yeah bc its tune is similar to canada’s national anthem

[@NewRepublicMapper]

Trudeau: Why the anthem sounds odd

[@ambroshcate8068]

Lodi 😁

[@jAassss1]

Bravo!!

[@kylejeremiemago7603]

it sounds like the national anthem of canada

[@jessenoelreyes4658]

Yes

[@AI-hx3fx]

It was based on Lavalée's tune, but slightly rearranged. Interestingly, Canada officially adopted it in the 1980s, decades after Ateneo began using this song as its hymn.

[@Strauss1269]

@@AI-hx3fx but became an unofficial anthem. Originally it was for the French Canadians but replaced by “Gens du Pays”

[@Lenilugz5406]

​@@AI-hx3fx Still, it was just copied from a Canadian anthem.

[@TypicalSatii]

@@Lenilugz5406 Wdym, it was used decades before Canada used it...
