ADDRESS OF JOHN PAUL II TO THE SAINT
CHARLES BORROMEO AND THE SAINT BASIL CHURCH CHOIRS
Friday, 14 June 1985
Dear Friends in Christ,
I am pleased to welcome to the Vatican the Saint Charles
Borromeo and the Saint Basil Church Choirs. In the joy of Christ I greet you
all. Your presence here today reminds me of the words of the psalm: "In the
presence of the angels I will sing your praise", for you are from Los Angeles,
the City of Our Lady of the Angels, and you come to Rome to sing, to sing the
praises of God. How good it is to sing and to rejoice in the love of our Lord!
Even better to make our life a song, to create harmony and concord in the world,
to live a life that is pleasing in God’s sight. As you refresh the hearts of
others through your hymns and songs, may God fill your own hearts with the
fullness of his peace.
