Sunday Psalm #293
March 25, 2018
This is the day the Lord has made Easter Sunday April 1, 2018 The English psalm settings are by Tinnah M. dela Rosa, and Joey Delos Santos while the Filipino setting is by Marc Misael S. Gamil. In singing this psalm you testify to what the Lord has done for you. When testifying one first narrates what one has seen and heard and then declares what one believes about what he/she has seen and heard. This psalm is your testimony about God and it becomes a communal song of praise as it moves others to testify to what God has done in their lives. One cannot have an encounter with God without talking about it. So as you sing this song, remember that you are proclaiming God's mighty deed of delivering us from bondage when we cannot free ourselves. (Cf. Working Preacher) Please click the picture or the highlighted link to download the high resolution PDF files of our composers.

Sunday Psalm #292
March 18, 2018
My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
Palm Sunday
March 25, 2018
The English psalm setting is by Tinnah M. dela Rosa, Jeffry Ray C. Miguel, and Ken Steven while the Filipino setting is by Dennis N. Marasigan.
The few verses used from Psalm 22 this Sunday do not do justice to the psalm's depth and its connection with the meaning of what we celebrate this Sunday and throughout Holy Week. Set aside some time this week to read the psalm in its entirety and to reflect on the relationship between suffering and praise of God. Then pray for the grace to enter Christ's suffering with him so that with him you may sing God's praise. (Cf. Living Liturgy 2012, p. 91)

Sunday Psalm #291
March 11, 2018
Create a clean heart in me, O God
Fifth Sunday of Lent (B)
March 18, 2018
The English psalm setting is by Tinnah M. dela Rosa while the Filipino setting is by Dennis N. Marasigan.
Singing these verses from Psalm 51 requires honesty about your own sinfulness and need for forgiveness. The transformation of heart you pray for is personal. Arriving at such honesty is painful, but it is also a moment of resurrection, for it opens the door of your heart for God's loving entry. Psalm 51 sings about the "ways" of God, singing it is the way of God. (Cf. Living Liturgy 2012, p. 85)

Sunday Psalm #290
March 4, 2018
Let my tongue be silenced if I ever forget you Fourth Sunday of Lent (B) March 11, 2018 The English psalm setting is by Tinnah M. dela Rosa. This Sunday's responsorial psalm will be a difficult one to sing unless you can see it as a typology of your - and everyone's - experience of sin and redemption. When have you been in exile from God and how has God drawn you back? (Cf. Living Liturgy 2012, p. 79) To download the music sheet with a higher resolution, please click here.
