Does anybody here remember Stryper? :lol: [/quote]
[QUOTE]
Styper rules!!!!
I saw them in '84 after I tossed out my Led Zep and VH. I caught a New Testament and also Robert Sweet's drum stick. Had it for years...

Nothin' like a little Yellow and Black attack to get one to play some serious Christian Air Guitar and Drums

:bee:

Yeah, they are the real deal. They stopped their show here in Tulsa to talk about respecting life and the aids crisis in Africa. We're pretty psyched about getting the opening slot for that show. I hear they're really down to earth and not about the whole rock star thing despite their success.

p.s. If you're near the Dallas area we will be at The Asylum this Friday, May 21st. We're called [url="http://www.recycledsouls.org"]Recycled Souls[/url]. I don't have any other info other than that though. I just ride in the back of the van and get out and play when they tell me to.

Katholikos

Panis Angelicus
Tantum ergo Sacramentum
O Salutaris Hostia
Hail Holy Queen
Come Holy Ghost, Creator Blest

... :D

I'm practicing my "et cum spiritu tuo" for June 6 and the first Tridentine Latin Mass I will have attended since the close of Vatican II.

Kalel isn't Catholic (yet), but his wife is and their new baby was baptised at St. Ben's recently. I think he was brought up in the Luthern church. I pray that he will soon start RCIA, he's shown an interest in it. It would be cool not to be, or at least feel like, the only Catholic on the Christian hardcore scene.

pax Christi,

Hmmm, I have lots of favs., but my hubby and I totally agree that if we were trapped on a desert island and could only take a handful of cds that Steven Curtis Chapman's Speechless would be one of them!

That said, do these two songs remind anyone else of Eucharistic Adoration/Mass? I totally want to write SCC and say, "Hey, you are soooooo Catholic and don't even realize it! Come HOME!!!!"

Ok, here's the lyrics....

Great Expectations by S.C. Chapman from Speechless


The morning finds me here at heaven's door
A place I've been so many times before
Familiar thoughts and phrases start to flow
And carry me to places that I know so well
But dare I go where I don't understand
And do I dare remember where I am
I stand before the great eternal throne
The one that God Himself is seated on
And I, I've been invited as a son
Oh I, I've been invited to come and...

Believe the unbelievable
Receive the inconceivable
And see beyond my wildest imagination
Lord, I come with great expectations.

So wake the hope that slumbers in my soul
Stir the fire inside and make it glow
I'm trusting in the love that has no end
The Savior of the world has called me friend
And I, I've been invited with the Son
Oh I, I've been invited to come and...

repeat chorus

We've been invited with the Son
And we've been invited to come and...

Believe the unbelievable
Receive the inconceivable
And see beyond our wildest imagination
Lord, we come with great expectations.

AND this one....

Speechless by S.C. Chapman/G. Moore from Speechless

Words fall like drops of rain
My lips are like clouds
I say so many things just trying to figure You out
As mercy opens my eyes my words are stolen away
At this breathtaking view of Your grace

Chorus:
I am speechless I'm astonished and amazed
I am silenced by Your wondrous grace
You have saved me You have raised me from the grave
I am speechless in Your presence now
I'm astounded as I consider how
You have shown us a love that leaves us speechless

What kind of love could this be
That would trade heaven's throne for a cross
And to think You still celebrate
Over finding just one that was lost
To know You rejoice over us the God of this whole universe
It's a story that's too great for words

Repeat Chorus

Oh, how great is the love
That the Father has lavished upon us
That we should be called the sons and the daughters of God

We stand in awe of Your grace
We stand in awe of Your mercy
We stand in awe of Your love
We are speechless
We stand in awe of Your cross
We stand in awe of Your power

We are speechless
We stand in awe of Your grace
We are speechless, astonished and amazed
We stand in awe of Your mercy
We are silenced by Your wondrous grace
We stand in awe of Your love
You have saved us, You have raised us from the grave
We are speechless

We stand in awe of Your cross
We are speechless in Your presence now
We stand in awe of Your power
We're astounded as we consider how
We are speechless
You have shown us a love that leaves us speechless

Oh yeah, and one more that my Hubby says reminds him of Adoration/Mass

Steven Curtis Chapman
Speechless (1999)
The Invitation

in the palace in the land of mercy
the king looked out from his throne
he saw the sick and the homeless and hungry
he saw me lost and without hope
and moved with compassion
he sent out his only son
with the invitation to come

this is your invitation
come just the way you are
come find what your soul has been longing for
come find your peace
come join the feast
come in this is your invitation

so i stood outside the gates and trembled
in my rags of unworthiness
afraid to even stand at a distance
in the presence of holiness
but just as i turned to go
the gates swung open wide
and the king and his only son
they invited me inside

so now will you come with me
to where the gates swing open wide
the king and his only son
are inviting us inside

this is our invitation
come sinner as you are
come find what your soul has been longing for
come find your peace
come join the feast
come in this is your invitation
this is our invitation
this is the invitation

Sooooo....whadday think? ;)
