Love 101

Hip Hop lyrics by Alex were made into a Hip Hop song and a Folk-Country song. See how we did it! Richard has recorded two audio demos. See the Comments section for the progression of lyrics and the two different song approaches.

Love 101
Original Hip Hop lyrics by Alex:

1st Verse:
The cold weather followed me around town
But I never sold my soul even though I was mostly down...
Then I got to know the lord
That's when I knew it was time to put down my sword
That frown turned upside down and I started to adore...

Love 101
Country-Folk version. Lyrics, music and performance by Richard Schletty.
 
There used to be a coldness all around
But something kept my soul from going down
I've come to know a man I call My Lord
Who's telling me to lay down my sword
 
Suddenly, my frown is down side up...

With eyes of faith I see You
In the Holy Eucharist
Your love I feel, touch my heart and soul
My broken heart I bring You
‘cas I know you long for it
Lord, let me love You with ever fervent zeal
 
As I bow before You
Pardon my iniquity

Little Things (St. Therese)

MP3 Music Playlist: 

Little Things (St. Therese), off of "Be Not Afraid" by Benjamin Brekke is about how St. Therese, the little flower, has inspired me in my faith journey and invites us to follow her wisdom and do little things with great love.  Doing these little things, are like flowers in God's garden and can truly change the world.
