I come to you

Dance into Joy

In Your Dwelling Place

We put people into boxes and judge them. We do not notice that at the end we are seeing ourselves in them. Let's not make ourselves the judges of others.

This song is about the enemy who becomes a friend. There, you realise that nothing is against you and what you thought was bad was also a blessing. What does not kill you makes you stronger, others would say.

Shalom is the word for Peace. This song is in my Maltese language. You might not understand it, but it speaks about the shalom that we need in our fears. 

Shalom

The prologue of St John presents us with a beautiful introduction to who Jesus is. This song speaks about the Word through whom all exist. A big thanks to Pierre Bonnici mssp for helping me with the lyrics.

In the Beginning

This is a prayer in my language, Maltese. I hope you like the style if you do not understand the lyrics. 

Salve Regina

While most countries are in lockdown, psalms offered the appropriate words to pray. Taking some of the phrases from these psalms, I came out with this song. It reflects our prayer in times of trouble and with a lot of hope in God. This song may resonate in many people's lives at this momentl. May He "clothe our soul with joy". I am presently residing in Pakistan for some months. I recorded it here, and I'm waiting for the airports to start functioning to return to Malta.

Of dust & Glory (a lockdown psalm)

This is the title track of the album. When you are happy, and joy is in your heart, you need to do one thing: dance into joy. It was written in Peru with Latin sounds and rhythm.

His Goodness

We are all human. We are all weak. We know it. God knows it, but he invites us to something bigger. That's why a Spirit is given. That's what Pentecost is all about.

Sing into Joy

Pentecost

This is a song that acknowledges all that God did for us in Jesus. Halleluja

Ephesian Canticle

Praise is a strange concept. Nothing changes when you praise, even if you praise God. But if you do, probably you're not the same. Join in harmony.

Incense

Maranatha was the prayer for the first Christian community to call the Lord to come. This is still our call.

Lyrics

Fill my heart, O Lord
Make it as your own
Bound to you alone – to none other
 
Be my resting place
Cease my wandering ways
Faithful true like you forever, my Lord, my God
 
From heaven’s throne you came
Freed me from my shame
Hear my song of praise Redeemer Lord, my God
 
Fill my heart, O Lord
Make it as your own
Bound to you alone – to none other
 
Grace like morning dew
Washes, makes me new
Every breath my grateful thanks my Lord, my God
 
Maranatha – Jesus my Lord
Maranatha – Son of God
Maranatha – Come, my Lord
Maranatha – Come, Son of God

Maranatha

Lazarus lived as he heard one voice calling him out. Allow God to touch you and you will live. 

In silence, dear Friend
I wait for night to end
This stronghold of death
Cannot withstand your breath
 
I can feel you drawing near, I know
Your Word makes my heart to glow
Healing radiance – your presence
Touch me and I will live
 
Jesus, my friend
Jesus, my life
Jesus, my all
 
Jesus, my friend
Jesus, my life
Jesus, my all – my Saviour

I will Live (Lazarus Vigil)

At these difficult moments, thinking of God at the beginning of the day is wise.

Before Dawn

How you see is what you see. The way you see make the whole difference in life.
