The premiere took place in June 2017 in Zakopane. The title of cantata refers strictly to the motto of the Polish Pope. The capital letter M symbolizes Mary and refers to the papal coat of arms. The cantata was commissioned by the Bacewiczówna Music Society in Ostrołęka as part of the "Collections" programme – the "Composing commissions" priority, implemented by the Institute of Music and Dance.
