Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit,

That my thoughts may all be holy.

Act in me, O Holy Spirit,

That my work, too, may be holy.

Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit,

That I love but what is holy.

Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit,

To defend all that is holy.

Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit,

That I always may be holy.

Catholic liturgical music wasn’t always like this — so what changed? In this episode of The Deep, Erika traces how Gregorian chant and polyphony gave way to the folk-inspired hymns that have dominated Mass for decades. From Vatican II and the rise of contemporary liturgical publishers to the theology embedded in the songs themselves, she explores how the music Catholics sing shapes what they believe — and whether a new generation can recover the Church’s sacred musical tradition.

Updates:

At 19:02, Erika mentions Catholic Sacred Music Project, but the picture shown is actually a group called Catholic Institute of Sacred Music. (https://catholicinstituteofsacredmusic.org/)

The group featured at 19:06 on video is Canticle. (https://www.canticle.org/)

Americans are reading fewer books — and the consequences may go far beyond shrinking attention spans. In this episode of The Deep, Erika explores how the decline of sustained reading is reshaping the way we think, reason, and even govern ourselves. If reading helped create the conditions for a free society, what happens when an entire culture stops doing it?

O Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may ever invoke thy most powerful name, which is the safeguard of the living and the salvation of the dying. O Purest Mary, O Sweetest Mary, let thy name henceforth be ever on my lips. Delay not, O Blessed Lady, to help me whenever I call on thee, for, in all my needs, in all my temptations I shall never cease to call on thee, ever repeating thy sacred name, Mary, Mary.

O what consolation, what sweetness, what confidence, what emotion fill my soul when I pronounce thy sacred name, or even only think of thee. I thank God for having given thee, for my good, so sweet, so powerful, so lovely a name. But I will not be content with merely pronouncing thy name: let my love for thee prompt me ever to hail thee, Mother of Perpetual Help. Amen.

O Glorious Saint Joseph, model of all those who are devoted to labor, obtain for me the grace to work in a spirit of penance for the expiation of my many sins; to work conscientiously, putting the call of duty above my natural inclinations; to work with thankfulness and joy, considering it an honor to employ and develop by means of labor the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace, moderation and patience, never shrinking from weariness and trials; to work above all with purity of intention and detachment from self, keeping unceasingly before my eyes death and the account that I must give of time lost, talents unused, good omitted, and vain complacency in success, so fatal to the work of God.

All for Jesus, all through Mary, all after thy example, O Patriarch, Saint Joseph. Such shall be my watch-word in life and in death. Amen.
