TE DEUM

MP3 Music Playlist: 
The TE Deum is an ancient hymn. It is unique in that it is a permanent part of the Divine Office. It is said(sung) at the end of Matins/Vigils/Office of Readings after the final reading and before the closing prayer on Sundays and Holy Days
You are God: we praise you;
You are the Lord: we acclaim you;
You are the eternal Father:
All creation worships you.
To you all angels, all the powers of heaven,
Cherubim and Seraphim, sing in endless praise:
Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might,
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
The glorious company of apostles praise you.
The noble fellowship of prophets praise you.
The white-robed army of martyrs praise you.

Colors of Purple

MP3 Music Playlist: 
During my university days in the 1960s I lost my Faith in the Lord Jesus and His Church and in my search for something to replace that Faith I turned to Zen Buddhism and Yoga. I was a follower of Alan Watts an ex Episcopal "priest"  turned Zen "master".  I read many of his books and listen to his radio lectures on the Boston University radio station every Sunday.  After about eight years I returned to the good Lord and his Catholic Church through the intercession of many prayers of family and friends and the direct witness of two dear Christian friends.

Create a clean heart

MP3 Music Playlist: 
LYRICS:
Create a clean heart, a clean in me O God
A clean heart create in me,O God,
And a steadfast spirit renew within me.
 Cast me away from Your presence
And Your Holy Spirit take not from me.
Give me back the joy of Your salvation
And a willing spirit sustain in me.
 I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners shall return to You.
Create a clean heart - a clean heart in me O GOD
For You are not pleased with sacrifices, 
Should I offer you a holocaust
You would not accept it
My sacrifice O God is a contrite spirit;
a heart contrite and humble, O God, You will not spurn
Create a clean heart - A clean heart in me O God

St. Paul in his letter to the Colossians urges us to set our minds on things above. That we should become heavenly-minded.  We were created to be - to live in ecstasy with our Triune God and all the angels and saints forever -sharing in a human way in divine life in a heavenly atmosphere. Pope Benedict in his trilogy on Jesus of Nazareth calls this reality the definitive "evolutionary" step in human existence that is hard for us to grasp. In his Letters, St Paul's vivid description of this difficulty says  - what eye has not seen, nor ear has not heard nor the human heart conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him. Throughout scripture The Good Lord does give is glimpses of the Heavenly reality for us to reflect on and yearn for. This song is a reflection on the scriptural glimpses that He has given us.

Lord, You satisfy our deepest desire for divine love. You know our sorrows
