Top Catholic Songs

This song by the Australian Fr Frank Andersen, MSC, I reckon, makes a great recessional or sending forth hymn because it shows connection and care in the name of faith between two Christians.

I think it also makes a thoughtful prayerful anthem for All Soul's Day because it conveys a caring link between the speaker in the lyrics and another person in faith, who could mean someone alive or dead.

The lyrics are taken from the first part of Philemon, chapter 1, verses 3-11 to be exact, and the melody is rather joyful and sprightly.

I hope you like my cover.

 

1) On this the first of all the days,           
when you  finished  creating the world,
the day dear Lord you conquered death
and rose again to set us free,

2) Everyday you grace fill us
With your word and body and blood
Everyday you transform us
By your Spirit's fire of love 

REFRAIN

A) O Jesus raise our souls to you;
that we fully share your life,

This new Marian hymn asks for comfort and healing from the Lord through the intercession of the Blessed Mother. It's great for any Marian feast, bringing into focus, Mary's role in our lives, especially on her role as an intercessor to Jesus and for our healing.

Because of You it’s there to start
The unseen order in its place
The elements all aligning
And running with Your energy

Because of You, there’s light and dark
There’s sound and silence, air and space
The water that sustains us all
And the land that rises from it

Only You (x4)
Make it real

Because of You there’s hope for more
The Truth just behind the curtain
From where You shape each piece of it
Help us to see it right again

ALL holy, everlasting light,
Our hope in our exile  night
though frail, we now confess your name
and beg you, hear our humble prayer.

O Spirit renew and reform us
Teach us how in you to pray

Bartolomé de las Casas (1484-1566) was a Spanish Dominican friar who, shocked by human rights violations he saw in Central and South America, spent most of his life in an unpopular fight for better conditions for indigenous and enslaved people in the New World. One of his major works, A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies, helped lead to reform in how these people were treated. His life still provides an example of Catholic social teaching in action, and shows the need for us to stand up today for defenseless victims at all stages of life.

Changed Hug You, Love you...etc 
to
With you, Love you, Your joy I'll be.

Also, I toned down the singing a little on the last line.

Here I present a lyrics update to the pro-life song, "Small Space, No Face".

Small space, no face, with you Im here,
Take form, so warm, Soon I will hear
Grow feet, heart beat, I’m just like you,
My face, In place, I love you too.

My wall, so small, Inside I hide
Touch you, press you, Feel me inside,
