Responsorial Psalm 13 July 2025 (15Th Sun Ord Time Yr C)

I like Brother Michael Herry's Responsorial Psalm arrangements because they're suited to those who have low voice range, but this one sounds like an exception, with a prolonged and hightened 'live' at the end of the response. All the same, the tune bears reverence, traditional (chant), yet emotive.

Deepen Our Love

Deepen our  love for you, O Lord

on  us you cleanse from guilt and sin.

Aug 8 Feast of St Mary MacKillop - Australia's Saint

When I composed this song in 2024, I was thinking something bright, fast and catchy for the younger audience. This was what came out. I hope I have achieved it, and I hope our younger people will like it.

In saying that however, I also put challenging words like tumultuous and apathy - to encourage a little bit of effort to sing with resilience just like the subject of the song - St Mary MacKillop herself.

Enjoy. Music here attached, for your use and sharing with others. The song is registered with One License.

Hymn of the Month - July: O Dearest Love Divine

For my HYMN OF THE MONTH, I have chosen a hymn that is a translation of the Latin Ad Cor Jesu (To the Heart of Jesus) by Monsignor Hugh Thomas Henry, Litt.D., which was published in 1912. The music was composed by Nicola Montani, an accomplished musician, composer, and publisher. The hymn is a testament that devotional hymns which have long been forgotten can once again find their place our Catholic liturgy. Please take a moment to read about this beautiful hymn to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Please visit my website Mother of Mercy Catholic Hymns and click on HYMN OF THE MONTH.
