Among the many World Youth Day songs, it’s the 1995 one written by Trina Belamide that’s most memorable and meaningful.
That year, World Youth Day was held in Manila, and we were part of it. Some Adformatix friends and I decided to join WYD as delegates, and we’d go to Don Bosch Church in Makati after work for briefings and practices.
One of the things we’d regularly practice is the song and gestures for “Tell the world of his Love.”
The first time this song was players, it was clear that the song was a perfect hymn for WYD. The message was beautiful, the lyrics and arrangement were divine, and it. A-Tueres the Story of Christ in a way that’s young and relevant.
The intro alone was so real and heartfelt:
“For God so loved the world, He gave us his only Son. Jesus Christ our saviour, His most precious one.”
This song played in my head as the Good Friday procession passed by in front of the compund
As we celebrate Good Friday today, this song is a fitting reminder of how God loved and continues to love us.
It’s a Good Friday Magic Madness song.
