1.
We Come to You, Lord Lyrics Sample
I
wrote this song as an entrance song for mass. It expresses the
purpose of people gathering together to celebrate mass i.e. to praise and
thank God for his blessings, ask for help with our needs, acknowledge our
dependence on his mercy and love, affirm our belief in the holy sacrament
of the Eucharist, give praise for the Holy Spirit’s presence in our daily lives and
confirm our belonging to the one family of Christ. The music is
intended to create a joyful beginning to the mass celebration.
2.
The Lord is My Shepherd Lyrics Sample
A
responsorial psalm for mass based on Psalm 23.
3.
I Give My Life to You, O God Lyrics
Sample
An
offertory song for mass. It expresses a complete surrender to God’s will and a commitment to serve him
and his people, especially those who are poor and
suffering.
4. Forgive
Me, Lord Lyrics Sample
This
is the first song I wrote in 1995 and is based on my reflections on one of
my favorite parables, the Prodigal Son. It is about acknowledging our
sins and seeking forgiveness.
5. Hail
Mary Lyrics Sample
This
is a song to our Blessed Mother and is based on the Rosary prayer.

8.
Teach Me, Lord Lyrics Sample
Expresses
a yearning to live the way that Jesus wants us to live and to love him the
way He loves us.
9. This
is My Body Lyrics Sample
A
communion song for mass. I imagined Jesus himself celebrating mass
and wrote the words that I think he might say during the consecration of
the bread and wine.
10. Jesus,
I Trust in You Lyrics Sample
This
song is the result of my reflections on the Chaplet of the Divine Mercy and
relates to the close personal relationship with Jesus that flows from
trusting completely in his mercy.
11. Do You Know
Lyrics Sample
I
imagined myself having a very personal conversation with God and wrote this
song to express the words that I imagined Him saying to me. The
lyrics are a gentle reminder of God’s
unconditional love for us and invite us to respond to His love without fear
and to share our blessings with each other.
12.
There is Room in My Heart Lyrics
Sample
A song
of praise and the lively music is meant to encourage hand-clapping and
joyful singing.
13. There’s No One but Jesus The Lord Lyrics Sample
The
message in this song is that we are all called by God to be His instruments
in carrying out his work of peace and justice in the world.
14. Until
Today Lyrics Sample
My
present ministry is to provide support to bereaved families through my
music. I was inspired to write this song at a funeral service while I
was listening to the speakers delivering the eulogies. It is a song
of farewell on behalf of the deceased person and I usually sing it as a
post-communion song.
15.
Let’s Go
Lyrics Sample
A
recessional song for mass. The music is lively and invites people to
participate freely and joyfully. The lyrics summarize the mass
experience and ends with a reminder of our one family relationship through
Jesus and an exhortation to go and live in peace, love and harmony.
