Chris, thank you so very much for recording all these Catholic songs. As an accompanist, you are my go-to every time we want to do a new one at Mass. I listen and have the Cantors listen, too, so we can learn them quickly and easily. God bless your ministry!!

[SalCScambaits]

I'm taking a bunch of your videos and making a Catholic hymns playlist. Naturally, they're just my favorite ones. Fortunately, you do a lot of my favorites from when I was at Catholic school and when I cantored later in life. :)

Chris, again you have come through for me and absolutely surprised me with the energy that this song has -- which I couldn't get just playing it by the piano. I had the counting all wrong, especially on the verse! I can't imagine how I ever learned new music for Mass without you! God bless you, Chris, and thank you for your hard work! :) †

[PeterAlmenar]

That’s a joyful song even though the composer didn’t leave enough room to breathe Ha. Good job with this.

[AJFreeman-ojrp]

Love the energy and passion in this, Very well done!!!

[annporter]

Very beautiful voice and gift of playing the guitar. Needed to learn this for cantoring at mass!

[stephenjones]

Whew! A fast one! Singing this today at mass...we won't go quite this fast...but I wish we would! :)

[nancyhoeft]

I use these videos all the time to practice my flute parts. Thank you!

[theresamassimi]

Great job! Missed singing this today at Easter Mass. Thank you and Happy Easter.

Refrain:
In the day of the Lord, the sun will shine
like the dawn of eternal day.
All creation will rise to dance and sing
the glory of the Lord!

1.
"And on that day will justice triumph,
on that day will all be free:
free from want, free from fear, free to live! Refrain

2.
Then shall the nations throng together
to the mountain of the Lord:
they shall walk in the light of the Lord! Refrain

3.
And they shall beat their swords to plowshares;
there will be an end to war:
one in peace, one in love, one in God! Refrain

[MTheChequeGuy]

I haven't heard this song in ages and you do it so well! Keep up the great work! 😊

[jenzink]

I love it! I think I need to work this in! And I am definitely going to use The Lord is My Hope after seeing your version of that. Thanks, Chris!!

[alexanderkravitz]

Ahmen! Praise the lord. Thank you my brother in Christ Jesus for posting this. Have you thought of doing a guitar lesson on this? I have been searching for one.
God Bless

Chris, your videos help our whole congregation by getting the guitars on the correct path! Question: for fingerprinting, what brand & gauge do you prefer?
