Dear Fellow Parishioners,

This week’s music is mostly well-known, especially if you generally went to the Sunday morning masses, but just in case you don’t know ‘Dwelling Place’  https://youtu.be/O7Au70ooV4g or ‘Somebody’s Knockin’ at Your Door’ https://youtu.be/sfCmkdJNLps here are the links. You can find the words to these and all the songs for this week in this attachment.

This week’s Gospel is about the Transfiguration, so I found some songs about that for you. There are quite a few out there!

The first one today is ‘Transfiguration’ by Marilla Ness  https://youtu.be/6G3pvuZbrYY?t=32 I set the link to skip over her introduction.

‘The Transfiguration’ by Peg Angell https://youtu.be/rPD5z4ueo5E

‘The Transfiguration’ (Stevens) performed by Koine https://youtu.be/bxyOh4wpduk?t=47 (once again, I skipped over the intro for you.)

‘Transfiguration’ (Wren/Manalo) https://youtu.be/vJec8-pfVQk  sung here by a magnificent church choir in Ajax Ontario, Canada.

‘Transfiguration’ (Hillsong) Performed by Christina Perry & Mick Grocholl  https://youtu.be/w6wJ2RU6p1o

And lastly, the upbeat and Celtic-sounding ‘Transfiguration Hymn’ by Justin Stroh  https://youtu.be/Op6IJZ3880M

I could have added at least 5 others, not including one in Latin, one in Arabic and one in Russian, but I had to draw the line somewhere! I hope you enjoy the ones I chose to share and have a blessed and joyful week.

Dear Fellow Parishioners,

Here we are in the first week of Lent! It sure came quick. All the music for Mass should be very familiar. You can find the words to all the songs in this attachment.

The first reading this week is about Noah which inspired my first selection.

‘Noah Found Grace in the Eyes of the Lord’ by the Statler Brothers  https://youtu.be/mWPuS8En9WU

The Gospel this week has to be the shortest one of the year. It dealt with Jesus’ 40 days in the desert being tempted by the devil in just two sentences! This first song seems to me to be inspired by that reading, lacking all details of the temptation but is a haunting interpretation of it.

‘Desert Voice’ by Eric Becker https://youtu.be/phiVW2ycgWU

The next two songs are based on the longer version in Matthew, Chapter 4.

‘Forty Days in the Desert’ by the Lonesome River Band is for the bluegrass lovers among you. https://youtu.be/WPwpAYLedzA

‘Temptations of Christ’ by Acappella Company https://youtu.be/2DxMPUDrkGI

The last two songs are about the redeeming power of the love of God.

‘Power of Your Love’ by Hillsong https://youtu.be/Ga6Qtxzd6vk

‘The Love of God’ by the NCrew (Lehman) https://youtu.be/NUy3yaSd9b0

I hope you enjoy them all and that they help get you started on your Lenten journey. May God keep you safe, happy and healthy.
