An exceptional collection of 11 tracks, ranging from Gregorian to rock, from Latin to Contemporary with eclectic shades, containing antiphons and sacred hymns of the Christian musical tradition, reimagined by contemporary composers and some excerpts of Pope Francis’ speeches directly from Radio Vaticana Sound Archives.
The Pontiff, in the Album, addresses universal issues, discussed in his catechesis and encyclicals, such as Peace, Nature, Poverty, Faith, Family...
According to the circumstances he finds himself in, Pope Francis pronounces excerpts of his speeches in Italian, Spanish, English and Portuguese.
The Album comes with a beautiful 24 pages booklet that includes prayers, lyrics and excerpts of the speeches by the Pontiff.

“WAKE UP!” - This word speaks of a responsibility
which the Lord gives you. It is duty do be vigilant, not
to allow the pressures, the temptations and the sins
of ourselves or others to dull our sensitivity to the
beauty of holiness, to the joy of the Gospel. Today’s
responsorial psalm invites us constantly to “be glad
and sing for joy”. No one who sleeps can sing, dance
or rejoice. I don’t like to see young people who are
sleeping. No! Wake up! Go! Go. Forward! Dear young
people, “God, our God, has blessed us” (Ps 67:6)) from
him we have “received mercy” (Rom 11:30). Assured
of God’s love. Go out to world so that, “by the mercy
shown to you”, they - your friends, coworkers, neighbors,
countrymen, everyone on this great continent -
“may now receive the mercy of God” (Cf. Rom 11:31).
It is by mercy that we are saved.”
ASIAN YOUTH, WAKE UP!
