1. Saint Mary of the Cross, may we also see Christ Like how you raised the dignity of the poor Australia wide You have faith tender yet tough, may we show your fortitude Like how you stood for love and hope that made way for Common Good
Refrain: Pray for us to never see a need without doing something Pray for us that God be with us in our lives Pray for us to be resilient in our tumultuous time May we show your courage here and everywhere, for Christ
2. You have faith grounded and deep, may we also seek the Lord Like how you felt His presence, through prayers and His Word May we show your kindness, and overcome our apathy Respecting peoples and cultures, new and old of so many (Refrain)
3. You have faith so passionate, may we also work for Love As carers for this Sacred Home of all creatures great and small Like your devotion to St Joseph and Jesus' Mother Mary May we become people of charity and humility. (Refrain)

I'm working on a Mass Ordinary setting and would appreciate feedback from other users of this platform on a particular issue I am facing as it comes together. I would also like to discuss some of my favorite Mass settings and hymns I have heard over the course of my lifetime
My recent contemporary arrangement of Sebastian Temple’s classic 1960s hymn, "Happy the Man," has reached the Number 1 position on the New Age Notes music charts. I would like to share my story with you.
As a music director/organist, I am always looking for additional sources for new, old, and forgotten hymns and other music. This resource would also be an excellent way to broaden my view of hymnody through history, hymnals, composers, sources, etc. I look forward to new discoveries!
I sing @ St. Vincent in Menifee & St. Peter's in Fallbrook. I am seeking musicians to form a band. I live in Menifee, so local guitarist, keyboards, & female vocals are sought. Dedicated only, & disciplined to practice alone & with group, weekly.
As a young Catholic who adores hymns, I would like to become more aware of those I haven’t heard before. I’m also looking for a space to help identify songs I’d heard once but lost to my memory
Engagée dans la diffusion de la musique catholique, je cherche à partager des chants pour contribuer à l’œuvre d’évangélisation selon mes humbles moyens. Que Dieu veille sur chacun de nous !
I've written a Mass setting, got it approved by the USCCB, several psalm settings, and a couple years of gospel acclamation verses. Looking for a place to publish my works.
