“Which of the Two” is a reflective sacred song inspired by Matthew 21:28–32 and the parable of the two sons. Through simple but emotionally honest storytelling, the piece explores the difference between words and action… between outward appearance and inward conversion… between saying “yes” and truly following through.
Written in a meditative, plainspoken style, the song reflects Christ’s challenge to those who speak faith easily while resisting the difficult work of obedience, humility, and change. At its heart, Which of the Two is about repentance, transformation, and the quiet grace of turning back toward God.
“Not what we say, but what we do,
reveals the path our lives have known…”
Perfect for:
• Communion meditation
• Choirs and soloists
• Lenten reflections
• Retreats and reconciliation services
• Scripture-based worship
• Prayer gatherings and sacred concerts
• Themes of conversion and discipleship
I’m the creator behind Sancteo, a Catholic music and video project. I’d like to discover other members’ music, exchange ideas, and share my own projects for feedback. I use AI-generated music and some AI-generated visuals, and I’m transparent about this in presenting my work
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.
