PSALM 22

MP3 Music Playlist: 
                                     PSALM 22
 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
 Why are you so far from helping me from the words of my groaning?
 O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer;
  and by night, but find no rest 
    
    Yet you are holy,
    enthroned on the praises of Israel.
     In you our ancestors trusted;
    they trusted, and you delivered them.
    To You they cried, and were saved;
    in you they trusted and were not put to shame.
    But I am a worm and not a man;

Now in your kingdom of Peace - We work and pray and daily feast
On you The Word and Living Bread - By which we live and daily fed
Daily you perfect us in your will - how to listen and be still
You teach us what we must do -  to humbly follow you

Your mercy will never fail
For By your cross, we are victorious
For you are God all glorious
We Praise you Lord for our salvation
All you angels, His power proclaim;

Responsorial Psalm 22(23):1-3a,5-6 for Christ the King, Year A - The Lord Is My Shepherd: There Is Nothing I Shall Want

MP3 Music Playlist: 


Responsorial Psalm 22(23):1-3a,5-6 for Christ the King, Year A

The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want.

The Lord is my shepherd;
there is nothing I shall want.
Fresh and green are the pastures
where he gives me repose.

The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want.

Near restful waters he leads me,
to revive my drooping spirit.
He guides me along the right path;
he is true to his name.

The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want.

You have prepared a banquet for me

TE DEUM

MP3 Music Playlist: 
The TE Deum is an ancient hymn. It is unique in that it is a permanent part of the Divine Office. It is said(sung) at the end of Matins/Vigils/Office of Readings after the final reading and before the closing prayer on Sundays and Holy Days
You are God: we praise you;
You are the Lord: we acclaim you;
You are the eternal Father:
All creation worships you.
To you all angels, all the powers of heaven,
Cherubim and Seraphim, sing in endless praise:
Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might,
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
The glorious company of apostles praise you.
The noble fellowship of prophets praise you.
The white-robed army of martyrs praise you.
Throughout the world the holy Church acclaims you:
Father, of majesty unbounded,
your true and only Son, worthy of all worship,
and the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide.
You, Christ, are the king of glory,

Colors of Purple

MP3 Music Playlist: 
During my university days in the 1960s I lost my Faith in the Lord Jesus and His Church and in my search for something to replace that Faith I turned to Zen Buddhism and Yoga. I was a follower of Alan Watts an ex Episcopal "priest"  turned Zen "master".  I read many of his books and listen to his radio lectures on the Boston University radio station every Sunday.  After about eight years I returned to the good Lord and his Catholic Church through the intercession of many prayers of family and friends and the direct witness of two dear Christian friends. The point of this song is to show how there are some truths in many of the "new age" syncretisms and that we who know the fullness of truth and Love in the good Lord and his beloved church must pray for and when possible must give witness to people who are involved in any of the 'New Age" movements.

Choral music for the Feast of Christ the King, from GIA

Selections from GIA Publications, Inc:

Concertato on Crown Him with Many Crowns
Arr. Richard Proulx
A powerful and harmonically adventurous arrangement that will enhance your congregation's singing.

Choral Fanfare for Christ the King
H. Hamilton Smith
With familiar Christ the King texts from Psalm 71:8 and Daniel 7:14, this masterpiece is a powerhouse that allows you to use full organ in dialogue with your choir! A classic from the GIA choral catalog.

Christus Paradox
Music by Alfred Fedak | Text by Sylvia Dunstan
Sylvia Dunstan's text examines the dual natures of Christ. Rarely does a text and tune paring work as well as this, proclaiming that Jesus Chris is both "our death and our life." A GIA best-seller. Optional orchestral parts available, arranged by John Ferguson.

Hymn of Consecration
Martin V. Curtis
Adapted from Psalm 122, "I was glad when they said to me," Hymn of Consecration is a bold, driving charge "to go to the house of the Lord!"

Let Us Go Rejoicing
Chris de Silva
A versatile piece that will engage children, assemblies, and adult choirs. With a call-and-response format, minimal rehearsal time is needed.

Come Forth to be Renewed
Robert J. Powell
Robert J. Powell takes text by John Milton and turns it into a stirring anthem for brass quartet, timpani, organ, and SATB choir. Festive, fanfare-like, and definitely affirming for Christ the King.

Responsorial Psalm 127(128):1-5 for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A

O blessed are those who fear the Lord.

O blessed are those who fear the Lord
and walk in his ways!
By the labour of your hands you shall eat.
You will be happy and prosper.

O blessed are those who fear the Lord.

Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
in the heart of your house;
your children like shoots of the olive,
around your table.

O blessed are those who fear the Lord.

Indeed thus shall be blessed
the man who fears the Lord.

Create a clean heart

MP3 Music Playlist: 
LYRICS:
Create a clean heart, a clean in me O God
A clean heart create in me,O God,
And a steadfast spirit renew within me.
 Cast me away from Your presence
And Your Holy Spirit take not from me.
Give me back the joy of Your salvation
And a willing spirit sustain in me.
 I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners shall return to You.
Create a clean heart - a clean heart in me O GOD
For You are not pleased with sacrifices, 
Should I offer you a holocaust
You would not accept it
My sacrifice O God is a contrite spirit;
a heart contrite and humble, O God, You will not spurn
Create a clean heart - A clean heart in me O God
Create a clean heart - A clean heart in me O God

Glorysphere

MP3 Music Playlist: 
St. Paul in his letter to the Colossians urges us to set our minds on things above. That we should become heavenly-minded.  We were created to be - to live in ecstasy with our Triune God and all the angels and saints forever -sharing in a human way in divine life in a heavenly atmosphere. Pope Benedict in his trilogy on Jesus of Nazareth calls this reality the definitive "evolutionary" step in human existence that is hard for us to grasp. In his Letters, St Paul's vivid description of this difficulty says  - what eye has not seen, nor ear has not heard nor the human heart conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him. Throughout scripture The Good Lord does give is glimpses of the Heavenly reality for us to reflect on and yearn for. This song is a reflection on the scriptural glimpses that He has given us.
