In that culture eating with someone was very special thing, u wouldn't just go to anyone's house and eat with them. They had many customs that were very important to them. To be a good/respectable host it was custom, among many other things, to have a servant come and wash your guests feet, this was considered a very lowly job. the fact that Jesus humbled himself, and washed his disciples feet shocked them. He did it as an example
the song translates to something like "where you find love & charity there you will find God". i'm not sure of the exact translation though, but you get the general idea.
UBI caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.
Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor.
Exultemus, et in ipso iucundemur.
Timeamus, et amemus Deum vivum.

nice song, but not liking the video. Why would Jesus take his own cloth off at the last supper?
