Top Catholic Songs – share, learn, promote

Some years ago someone asked if I could set St John Vianney's Prayer to Jesus to music.  I had never seen this prayer before but once I did it resonated immediately.  What an absolutely beautiful love song to Jesus!  Color Music Minstry recorded and recently released the song online via our Contemplative Worship Podcast, SoundCloud and YouTube and it will soon be available for streaming on all major platforms.

St John Vianney’s Prayer to Jesus
"I love You, O my God, My only desire
is to love You until the last breath of my life.
I love You, O my infinitely lovable God,
and I would rather die loving You,
than live without loving You.

I love You, Lord
and the only grace
I ask is to love You eternally.
My God, if my tongue can't say
in every moment that I love You,
I want my heart to repeat it
to You as often as I draw breath."

I wrote this song while staying at friends retreat house and chapel. Although done on a dodgy IPAD recording.
Have been composing music around the Psalms of late.

I am glad that I get to mention on PA Newsletters as a songwriter at Top Catholic Songs.

Song lyric, All Colors With One Wish, written by Dan Vi Nguyen.
I got inspired to write this song lyric since I had a chance to visit Washington DC, USA in 1998 when I met with politians and others at the Capital of United States of America.  I realized the vision and mission of the presidents of the country.  Until 2011 that I wrote the song lyric, All Colors With One Wish, and I wasn't expected that the song turned out so great.  

My new song "Multiply Our Love", inspired by the miracle of the multiplication of loaves and fish.


Sung together with a group of volunteer friends of the Benedictine Monastery in Tabgha, the place of the miracle, where I lived for 3 months and where I also shot the video. Apart from one girl, we were all improvised singers and I must say that my friends did very well, but above all it was a very beautiful experience of friendship and sharing in the Lord.

Hi Richard,

I just want to share with you my joy in regard to the song, God's Gift To All The World, that we worked together on a few years ago. I posted the song on Drooble.com.  I recently received a recognition for 200 times plays on the radio.

1st Verse:

To follow in his footsteps may seem like a challenge

But we are not hollow inside so he knows we can manage...

We try our best not to fail

And feel from what's high up above when we hail...

Hi everyone,
I present to you 'Song of Peace' used as part of a welcome to a liturgy and can get quite complex in that the song has two choruses that are sing at the same time, splitting th church up into two competitive halves (quite fun too!).
