Ordo Praedicatorum

The Lord's Hounds Lyrics:
fr Nars Estrella, Jr., OP
Music: Ms Cecilia Pan
Theme song for the 2009 OP Asia Pacific Leader's Conference
Kaohsiung, Taiwan, ROC

Although we come from different nations
Yet in mind and heart we are one
Because of the noble mission and vision
To preach, to praise, to bless

Dominic sent his brothers in twos
To reach the fallen world;
Carrying the torch of light and truth
That all may see the everlasting Word

Refrain:
We are Dominicans by calling
Called to be the voice of the silenced;
The hands which lift up the hopeless;
The eyes of those in darkness;
The riverbed of God's grace

Today, he sends his own family
To bridge distance and culture
In solidarity embrace our mission
All for the sake of Truth
Which we seek and desire to preach
