Top Catholic Songs – share, learn, promote

Happy Sunday, everyone! Peace! I just wanted to play this on guitar as I felt it is a much needed prayer now and always. Here's my guitar recording. Hopefully, you like it.

 

This is a joy to compose. I hope you like it. Let me know what you think. Here's the music sheet for piano and guitar and vocal for your convenience. This song is registered with One License and CCLI. Email me on erwincabucos@gmail.com if there's anything else I can help. Enjoy!


 

Deepen our  love for you, O Lord
who grant us pardon for our faults,
that you may have compassion,  O Lord,                               
on  us you cleanse from guilt and sin.

Once we taste your   divine fire

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.

When I composed this song last year, I was looking for a little change from the usual Haugen, Farrell or Schutte hymns we had had in our parish. So here it is. I hope you like it. Feel free to use and dessiminate. Music sheet is attached. The new Gathering Hymn: 'Walk with Christ' by Erwin Cabucos. Enjoy!

 

Looking for a sprightly tune for Responsorial Psalm this coming weekend? Try this tune, using the Philippine Nursery Rhyme Leron-Leron Sinta. The response is 'Let all the earth, cry out to God with joy'. Guitar, vocal and arranged by me - Erwin Cabucos from Catholic Church Hymns. Enjoy! If you have a Filipino person in your parish, let him or her sing it, it's the most popular kid's song in the Philippines. 

It's really newish as I wrote  and home recorded it around same time last year. Since then, it has been played in my church and blogged in Australia. I wonder what you think of it. Enjoy 'We Thank You, Lord' Thanks to Geoff Madden for such a great backing track. 



 

1 John 3:2  But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

1) Come, Thou Almighty King,
help us Thy name to sing;
help us to praise:
Father, all glorious,
o'er all victorious,
come, and reign over us,
Ancient of Days. 

2) Come Jesus that we may see
thy face in glory
And become like thee        
All evil disperse
King of the universe
Our bodies glorify
Lord almighty

3) Come, Thou Incarnate Word,
gird on Thy mighty sword,  

Lord have mercy -  Lord have mercy - Lord have mercy

In this final age of the Spirit and  Church 
The final battle is to come
Between you and the evil one  Lord have Mercy
The battle rages throughout the earth

1 ) O Holy Spirit of Love and truth
Give us today your will to know and do       
that we become  as one
Faithful daughters and  sons

2 ) O Holy  Spirit lead us more deeply
In knowledge of the Father and Son
 and live like them as one
So that  all may know  their savior has come

1) Alleluia! Alleluia!
Let the holy anthem rise, 
And the choirs of heaven chant it
In the temple of the skies;
Let the mountains skip with gladness,

Hello everyone,

I’d like to share with you a new musical interpretation of the Magnificat, Mary’s beautiful canticle of praise and trust in God.

Listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ae5CAvqriTY



This version is a simple and prayerful setting, meant to help listeners enter into the spirit of Mary’s words — her humility, her joy, and her deep faith.

I hope it might be a blessing to someone — whether in personal prayer, group devotion, or simply as a moment of peace.

Any thoughts or impressions are warmly welcome.

Peace in Christ,
Grace Lifing

Pray a rosary for each person to Our Lady of Fatima.

I realize the tremendous treasures and resources from Our Lady of Fatima, as her request to recite the rosary for her to obtain peace on earth.
There are so many people on the Top Catholic Songs website, and I just feel that if we can pray a rosary for each person on here, upon Our Lady of Fatima.  I am certain there will be a lot of blessings that we will obtain from Our Lady of Fatima.

This beautiful hymn to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is a favorite of mine. I sang this hymn with St. Mary’s Choir in Akron, Ohio. Recently, I heard Pope Leo XIV prayer to the Sacred Heart and he spoke in English to the pilgrims who had gathered at the Vatican, and I thought what a great opportunity to share this Sacred Heart hymn with everyone again.

I have not had a lot of time to do hymn research and have something prepared for the month of June as I am working on building four benches for a Mary garden at St. Mary’s.

The hymn was written and composed by a Catholic priest nearly one hundred and forty years ago. If you are looking for a hymn to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, then here is a devotional and prayerful hymn that I think you will just love. Please take a few moments to read about one of my favorite hymns.
