Litanies are great for processions - one person has all the heavy lifting and the rest float along with the easy responses.

Some places recite this during Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament - which used to seem odd to me, but Our Lady carried Our Lord, so there is a strong link between the Holy Eucharist and Mary.

Recently, Pope Francis added in three new invocations. I still haven’t added them in yet. Also, I found a typo - I’ve been emphasising the first syllable of gaudere all this time and it should be the second syllable. I’ve ammended this in the podcast, but still have to fix the hymnbook.
