Abstract

This paper explores the theological integration of Contemporary Praise and Worship music within Philippine liturgical celebrations, with a particular focus on the songs “Still†by Hillsong Worship and “Goodness of God†by Bethel Music. By examining these songs’ theological content, lyrical quality, and alignment with the Catholic Church’s criteria for liturgical music, the study highlights how contemporary worship music can enhance communal worship and foster a deeper connection with God. The paper also addresses the challenges of incorporating contemporary music into traditional liturgy, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the integrity and sanctity of the worship service. Through a historical and contextual analysis, this research provides valuable insights for church leaders, musicians, and the faithful in integrating diverse musical genres into Catholic worship.
