About this song
Sensus fidelium means "the sense of the faithful": the instinct for the truth that the Holy Spirit gives the whole people of God.
This song gives voice to the faithful who long to see the Church solemnly proclaim Mary as Co-Redemptrix, Mediatrix of all graces and Advocate, the proposed fifth Marian dogma.
Mary, Mother of the Church, pray for us.
Lyrics
It began back a centuryThree children on a hillThe sun danced a signThe moon seemed to still
A pontiff heard the warningA century would go byMan would be testedThe fam’ly be tried
Pius saw the gloryThe Woman assumedCelestial confirmationDoctrine is to bloom!
Powers unseenPlanned their attackMasculine collateralSouls lost to the black
The power of the sunHarnessed in the bombThe cold war meltedThings seemed to calm
Sensus FideliumDeep calls to deepShepherd come listen,Smell with the sheep
Saints then proclaimed itPleaded it to RomeThe consecrated standThe time has come!
She is coming forthRadiant as the dawnImmaculate TheotokosAssumed Virgin
Victory for the lowlyThe day has comeProclaim from the rooftopsMake Reparation!
An array of blueIn a vale of tearsSorrows and sweetnessWithout the fear
Cells of the UnbornIn the Woman’s wombDesigner forever recordedIn Bride and Groom
For the Love of JesusFor sinners poorBless the Blessed MotherShe is the cure!
