Top Catholic Songs

This is the adjusted version to the lower key A with capo 1 in guitar. I originally composed it in C. It was too high for the community, I think. Hence the adjustment this time. 

I love singing this song in acoustic guitar, sounding austere and uncomplicated.

Enjoy and send me an email to erwincabucos@gmail.com and let me know how you used it in your church. -Erwin
