About FATHER IN HEAVEN / LET US BREAK BREAD TOGETHER

This sheet brings together two deeply reverent hymns, often sung during the Communion rite to draw the congregation into a spirit of unity and prayer. The first, "Father In Heaven," is set to a gentle traditional Filipino melody. It offers a beautiful Trinitarian prayer—addressing the Father for mercy, the Son in remembrance of His Passion, and the Spirit for strength. Its flowing rhythm makes it a peaceful meditation for the choir and the faithful as they prepare their hearts to receive the Eucharist.

The second piece is the beloved spiritual, "Let Us Break Bread Together." Known for its profound humility and simple devotion, it calls us to the Lord's table "on our knees." As the verses progress from breaking bread to drinking the cup and praising God, the recurring refrain—"When I fall on my knees, with my face to the rising sun"—anchors the song in a posture of deep surrender and a plea for God's mercy. Together, these two arrangements offer choirs a rich, contemplative selection for the Eucharistic feast.
