COMPOSERS! NOTE

“Together, We are Called” is a new composition commissioned to mark the 10th anniversary of the Le Chéile Catholic Schools Trust. This is a piece that embodies the characteristics of Le Chéile and represents the charism that has evolved over the past ten years.

The chorus is inspired by the Old Testament book of Micah 6:8 “To act justly, to love tenderly, to serve one another and walk humbly with our God”. “We are called” becomes our response to these statements, and as we know this is “what the Lords asks of us”. This chorus acts as both reminder and proclamation that this is what we stand for, and this is what we are called to be.

The verses are inspired by the three characteristics of Le Chéile that have evolved over the past ten years - Welcome, Wisdom and Witness. Verse one focuses on our schools being places of welcome and sharing, taking our example from Christ who has loved us first, and whose love we share with those we meet each day. Verse two focuses on the wisdom and heritage that has been handed to us by the founding congregations. Our school communities now carry that heritage and faith forward, and our students become ambassadors to this, proudly taking their place in the world. Their lives become a light for others, and together they shine. Verse three focuses on being a witness to faith, hope and love. Our school communities are places where this witness is lived out, from the classroom to the corridors, and from there into our communities. This witness is expressed with joy and enthusiasm, it is fully alive.

The coda following the final refrain (with key change) proclaims “Together we are Hope… Joy, Love and Light”. These words are central both to the Le Chéile prayer and throughout this piece.

Our hope is that this piece will become an anthem for all the Le Chéile family to use, as it celebrates all that we are, and all we are called to be together.
