We are back making music again -- well, we never really stopped; life just got in the way of releasing any new music.  So this is the first new track from us since Here Till The End in 2005.  This is our version of Marc A. Robinson's a cappella classic.

Instrumentation: Voice, organ
Duration: 3’

During the 1930s, at the chapel of the Convent of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy at Krakow, Poland, Saint Faustina received apparitions from Jesus and Mary that would form the basis of the Divine Mercy movement. Not long after Faustina’s death in 1938, a young Karol Wojtyla – the future Saint John Paul II – would sometimes stop and pray in the same chapel after ending his day working at a nearby quarry. After surviving both the Nazi occupation and Communist control, Wojtyla became pope, and canonized Faustina in 2000.

In that quiet place, she would pray
Just before things erupted again.

“The Road to the Cross” A Holy Week reflection told through the voices of those who met Christ along the Via Dolorosa — Mary, Simon of Cyrene, Veronica, and the Women of Jerusalem. Each verse reveals a different face of love, fear, and faith as the Son of God carries the Cross toward Calvary. This is not a retelling — it’s a confession from the road itself. Perfect for: Lent, Good Friday, Stations of the Cross, and Passion presentations.

I have been able to find two different melodies. One melody is set to the tune of "Glorification" which is taken from Gossner's "Choralbuch" Leipsig, 1832,  a German Melody. 

The other melody is by Marie A. d'Invilliers otherwise known as Sister Camille Marie, R.S.M., a religious Sister of Mercy.

however the complete score is not available due to copyright restrictions. So I'm following up with the university. 


While doing my research I came across a recording by the Ames Brothers on youTube.

Suitable for parish liturgy, adoration, or quiet moments of reflection. Lyrics highlight: “Your truth, Your love, Your living word— Shine through the world through me.”

A new poem about the first Christmas in the style of Clement Clark Moore's "'Twas The Night Before Christmas" is interspersed with "Silent Night". This harmonically lush version of "Silent Night" starts off as a tender 4/4 ballad then progresses to the a lullaby-like 6/8 for the second verse to a glorious 3/4 finale.

A gentle hymn inspired by the Transfiguration (Matthew 17:5). It invites the soul into stillness — to pause, to pray, and to listen to Him. Ideal for reflection, prayer services, and Communion meditation. “This is My Son, the voice you hear, When silence falls and hearts grow dim; When all is lost, yet God is near— Be still… and listen to Him.”

A gentle reminder that God meets us in every moment. “Day by Day” speaks to the quiet strength He gives, the peace He offers in our trials, and the promise that His mercy is renewed with each passing hour. This hymn invites us to trust the Father’s loving care, take each day as it comes, and walk toward the hope He has prepared for us. May these words bring calm, encouragement, and the certainty that you never walk alone.

A gentle meditation on the timeless hymn Of the Father’s Love Begotten, reflecting on Christ’s eternal nature, His blessed birth, the worship of Heaven, and the glory of the Holy Trinity. Perfect for Advent, Christmas, and prayerful reflection throughout the season.
