New House New Year

Thank God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Family, that our family is able to afford the house in America.  My God bless the house for those who come and live in the house.  The house is belonging to God, Jesus Christ, as the owner of the house.

My Catholic Testimony (by Nick Alexander)

This is a message I received from Nick Alexander via his group mailing list. Nick is one of the founders of TopCatholicSongs.com. – Richard

Hello ... 

It's been awhile.  

If you are looking for some inspiration, my testimony of why I had converted to the Catholic Church is online.

Over a year ago, I had been asked to share my testimony in writing, for the Coming Home Network's archives.  You can read about it here: https://nickalexander.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=617fefe464cc09e10dfe15a1d&id=f81d9c8c6e&e=36ff2dfc66

So far, the responses to the personal account have been very well received. It details my journey from when I first had a deeper conversion to Christ as a young teen, to a hardcore Christian believer submerging himself into the evangelical subculture, to one involved with the charismatic renewal, to ultimately a Catholic.  

If you are not Catholic, you may be interested in why I had pursued such a journey.  If you are a Catholic, you may be inspired.

Here's the direct link to the article:

Thanks for reading.  The pandemic has been tough on all those who do music ministry, public speaking and live performances.  My family is fine, we're still standing.  I pray your families are doing well during this crazy time.

God bless,
Nick Alexander

I Am a Priest (feat. Paola Barba)

Hey everyone! I had fun making this new record and hope you enjoy it also. Stay blessed.

Hello, everyone. Here are a few songs from my new album, I hope you will enjoy them!

Friends: I am happy to report that I have just released my second album or original music (on January 15, 2022). It’s called #5 and consists of three instrumental pieces that I composed, spanning nine movements. I share two movements below for your listening pleasure; please feel free to check out the entire album on my YouTube channel. As with my first album issued in 2021, the intent of these songs is to uplift, to encourage, to express wonder, gratitude and love, and to glorify. Thank you for listening! Andrzej

Praise to the New Eve [Guadalupe Mix Double Bonus]

MP3 Music Playlist: 


If you don't know Lee O'Day, he's the program director for "The Sword of Saint George" or KSWZ, a Catholic radio station near the college town Manhattan, Kansas. As he'd had us (the Catholic parody band Captain Hogcurl's Dacha Porch) featured on his "Saturday Night Sword Play" contemporary Catholic music show before, we sent him this track, a remix of Praise to the New Eve. He enjoyed it and actually added a little connective tissue to the music to make it play twice as long for the radio program. This was such a thrill and a huge compliment. As I wanted to offer it here as a download, he graciously gave the OK to send out his version. The video you're seeing here is the lyric video for Praise to the New Eve [Guadalupe Mix] and the free download you're seeing are Praise to the New Eve [Guadalupe Mix Double Bonus] (*this is Lee O'Day's version). Stay blessed!

Here's why TopCatholicSongs.com was offline on Thursday 1/6/22

Some of you may have noticed that this Top Catholic Songs website was offline or erratic for a few hours on Thursday 1/6/22.  I was attempting to switch hosting to my home-based Synology Disk Station DS1513+ (an NAS – network attached storage unit). It did not go well. The Intel Atom Dual Core 2.13 GHz processor with only 4 GB of RAM cannot handle the demands of this Drupal 6 CMS (content management system).

So I switched back to SiteGround, a hosting company that has made the decision to soon end PHP version 5.6 service. They say that PHP 5.6 it is too old and they don't want to spend money on security maintenance. I am looking for a new hosting company that is willing to host older technologies. 

The problem is that when I switch this Drupal 6 website to PHP 7.x or 8.x, our self-hosted audio players disappear...

Joy to the World, the Savior reigns! The Bible tells us that when Jesus returns after the Tribulation He will rule over all the nations of the whole World.

Stars, How Do You Feel About Being Small? Lyric video.



The creation narrative speaks of God making a lesser light to rule the night and a greater light to rule the day.  Then, as if almost an afterthought, the author of Genesis adds, "He also made the stars."
