St Mary MacKillop Song by Erwin Cabucos - lyrics and music

July 2, 2025 - 11:04am — Erwin Cabucos

MP3 Music Playlist:

When I composed this song in 2024, I was thinking something bright, fast and catchy for the younger audience. This was what came out. I hope I have achieved it, and I hope our younger people will like it.

In saying that however, I also put challenging words like tumultuous and apathy - to encourage a little bit of effort to sing with resilience just like the subject of the song - St Mary MacKillop herself.

Enjoy. Music here attached, for your use and sharing with others. The song is registered with One License.

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!
