	<title>The Servant of the Poor (Hymn to Saint Vincent de Paul)</title>
	<description>As the Vincentian Family prepares to celebrate the feast of **Saint Vincent de Paul on September 27**, we invite you to listen, sing, and reflect with this new hymn in his honor.

Its words follow the traditional language and structure of a hymn, but its musical energy speaks to the present: direct, vibrant, and made to be sung with conviction. It remembers Vincent as a man who heard the cry of people in need, recognized Christ in those who were poor and abandoned, and refused to let compassion remain only a feeling.

But this is more than a song about Saint Vincent.

It is also a song addressed to us.

When we sing, **“Saint Vincent, guide our steps aright, / To love the lost, the weak, the poor,”** we are asking for the courage to continue what he began. The hymn invites us not only to admire his life, but to make his vision our own—to notice those others overlook, to turn faith into action, and to discover what it means to serve Christ in the people we encounter today.

**Listen to the hymn. Sing it. Let its words become a prayer—and perhaps a question: where is Saint Vincent’s mission calling you now?**</description>
