Top Catholic Songs – share, learn, promote

All My Life is from the album Silent Letter, the eighth studio album by American folk rock duo America, released by Capitol Records in June 1979.

America is one of my favorite band, growing up with this wonderful duo.  I literally grew up with America songs, and would like to dedicate this song to all my co-pilgrims to the Holy Land in Israel.  A once in a lifetime visit to Jesus' land.  We are so fortunate to have visited this beautiful and historic place, and so blessed to have the Holy sites to ourselves as Israel just recently opened their borders to the pildgrims of the world.

Alleluia!!!

Birthday Song, Don Mclean 1972.

I do believe in magic. Our trip to the Holy Land FEB2022 is magic,.... magical,.... and it is another of our "Birthday"!

Some things have no name, and some things are not spoken of.... Jesus is His name, and He has spoken the Truth and the Way... Amen!

What's Behind A Rainbow?
Words by John W. Selleck, Music by Rene A

Down at the beach today
I saw a wonderful sight
A double rainbow in the air
It filled the western sky
Why is it so special
To fill my heart with song
Don't you just love it too
And want to sing along

Chorus
What's behind a rainbow-------}
I wonder do you know
It must be so magical
To cause that heavenly glow
Don't try to explain it
With scientific proofs
I really like the mystery
Maybe you do too

The Irish say a pot of gold
Lies down at either end
But don't go chasing rainbows
You'll get lost my friend
I like to stare in wonder
Moments lost in time
Is it all a part of
Someone's great design

Hi!
Love to hear your feedback and recommendations.

This song is about love and growing old with love.

Happy Valentines Day to all!!!

Thanks in advance for your time and expertise.

Respectfully,
Rene

Let Me Be, words and music by Rene A 

Let me be the one who makes you feel brand new, my Love 
Cause its you, only you 
Can make me feel the way that I do 
Your love's so warm and true 

Let me be your sunshine and rain in our Garden of Eden, my Love 
Our dreams will come true 
We can grow and conquer all things 
If you just let me be 

Let me, please be, the one who holds your hand 
Let me, please be, the one who walks with you 

And if we're lucky, we can both grow old together, my Love 
It's you, only you 
Can make me feel the way that I do 
Your love's so warm and true

Shadows Vanished, Darkness Banished - Music and Lyrics by Rene A

I'm in the middle of the ocean
Floating, straying like a drift wood
I've got no control of where I'm going
But trust in Him in every age and time

I'm like a stardust in the universe
Shadows and darkness engulf my senses
But He who fashioned and stayed us
To Him all glory and honor belong

Let all things now living
Give thanks and praise, Hosanna in the highest
God our Creator
Pure light before us

In Him shadows have vanished
With Him darkness is banished
Through Him, our Lord Jesus Christ
And the Holy Spirit, and God The Father
