    The Preamble
    • The term preamble is derived from the Latin
    term preambulare, which means, “to walk
    before.”
    • It is an invocation or the opening prayer in any
    activity or the prologue of the constitution,
    invoking the highest sovereign God Almighty to
    bless this instrument.
    • this is not an integral part of the constitution
    and could not enforced, however its
    significance is that studies made showed that
    almost all of the constitution made to contain a
    preamble.
    “We, the sovereign Filipino people, imploring the
    aid of Almighty God, in order to build a just and
    humane society, and establish a Government that
    shall embody our ideals and aspirations, promote
    the common good, conserve and develop our
    patrimony, and secure to ourselves and our
    posterity, the blessings of independence and
    democracy under the rule of law and a regime of
    truth, justice, freedom, love, equality, and peace, do
    ordain and promulgate this Constitution.”
