Composed by Stephen DeCesare. Arranged by Stephen DeCesare. This edition: audio. Christian, Folk, Multicultural, Religious, Sacred, World. Accompaniment. Duration 290. Exultet Music #1204807. Published by Exultet Music (A0.1636998).
"O Lady of La Vang" is a heartfelt hymn inspired by the 1798 apparition of the Virgin Mary to persecuted Vietnamese Catholics in the rainforest of La Vang, Quảng Trị Province. This devotional piece, composed in a silk painting-inspired visual narrative, tells the story of refugees finding solace through Mary’s maternal care. The hymn’s three verses, set in a steady 4/4 time, recount the faithful’s plight, Mary’s radiant appearance, and her enduring guidance across generations. The chorus, shifting to a lilting 6/8 time, celebrates her as “O Lady of La Vang, so gentle, so near,” offering healing and divine light. Accompanied by stunning silk painting-style illustrations—featuring Mary in a glowing white áo dài, lotus flowers, and a banyan tree—this hymn blends Vietnamese inculturation with universal Marian devotion, making it a poignant addition to liturgies, especially for the August 15 feast of Our Lady of La Vang or Vietnamese Martyrs’ celebrations.
