Firework by jimlapbap

Earlier I posted the song 'Firework' by Katy Perry. You can click HERE if you've not seen it.

Well... here's an Acappella version that I thought was quite good. 

It's a jazzed up version which could be used as an intro to the actual song.

Easter Joy ~ Entrance Antiphon ~ 2nd Sunday of Easter (Cycle A)

This is today's Entrance Antiphon...

~~~.

THE SEASON OF EASTER

SECOND SUNDAY OF EASTER

.

Our Easter Joy

.

Today as we hail Christ as our Lord and God we are filled with the jy of the disciple in seeing the risen Lord. In this season of renewal we are like those early Christians who were 'filled with a joy so glorious that it cannot be described.'

.

Entrance Antiphon: 

.

Like newborn children you should thirst for milk, on which your spirit can grow to strength, alleluia.

.

or

.

Rejoice to the full in the glory that is yours, and give thanks to God who called you to his kingdom, alleluia.

.

... and my first time trying to write a tune for an Antiphon. I even liked the open lines that ended up writing a whole song using the opening lines.

One Life ~ by Marshall Lawrence ~ SATB Score

One Life ~ by Marshall Lawrence (Lyrics)
(Rom 5:15-19)

On life, one solitary life, to change the course of history.
One man, one very special man, to fill a very special need.
One love, one pure and perfect love, alive in spite of all the odds
One plan, one very simple plan, uniting all mankind with God.

One life, one solitary life, but what that single life has done
One man, one everliving man, who gives new hope to every one
I do not claim to understand it; I only know that it is true.
The entire world was changed by that one solitary life,
One solitary life.
