{sweet sounds for your Mass and reception}
Have you ever seen a new bride and groom wash each other's feet during their wedding ceremony or reception? Personally, I'm not for symbolic rituals like foot-washing or unity candles since, to me, there's no reason for a symbol when a Catholic Mass has a sacramental reality instead, but even so, the beauty of the idea is undeniable.
Alabaster by Rend Collective Experiment expresses this sense of loving service so beautifully. "My lips," they sing, "so lost for words, will kiss your feet." It's a song about brokenness made whole, which might not seem like the most wedding-y sentiment off the bat, but I think being healed and brought to a deeper love, by Love Himself, is as romantic as it gets. It would make a wonderful Mass prelude or communion meditation! Listen to the song here.
What do you think? Any opinions on additions to the liturgy?
