  • Adoration for a New Springtime
    Adoration for the New Springtime was created to help lay parishioners (that is, normal, everyday people like you) experience the beauty and power of Eucharistic Adoration at their home parish, with their local prayer group or youth group, by providing a complete contemporary soundtrack that includes all of the "fixed" parts listed above in their proper order, plus several other songs written by some of today's most talented Catholic artists. To encourage participation of your whole group, a full-size Songsheet Master is included with the CD, and may be copied up to 50 times. There is no other worship aid on the market today that provides such a complete solution to starting Eucharistic Adoration at your home parish! Created and performed by Paul Hilts.

  • Modern Psalter
    Modern Psalter is a response to the Church's desire to more closely identify the Psalms, the ancient prayers of Israel, with the rest of the liturgy. It is a contemporary approach to the ancient beauty of the psalms, the same psalms that King David wrote... the same psalms that Jesus quoted and prayed... Our psalter is transmitted via podcast and with .pdf files so that you can have access to this psalter anywhere in the world! An ancient hymnal translated by modern technology. Songwriters Michael James Mette, Bryan Murdaugh and Joel Stein provide verbatim psalm responses in a contemporary setting.

    Gate of Heaven (A Collection of Catholic Hymnody)

    Gate of Heaven is a collection of original post-Conciliar Catholic hymnody in the Roman and Eastern Catholic tradition. The recorded music comprising Gate of Heaven presently consists of three CDs, Parts I, II and III. Although Gate of Heaven is undeniably contemporary in style and influence, it draws greatly from the Gregorian chant tradition, especially through its oftentimes linear, chant-like movement. The ancient modes oftentimes provide its melodic basis and harmonic structure. Mary Oberle Hubley is the composer. An Accompaniment Edition and Melody (pew) edition of the Gate of Heaven collection are available through the catalog, where hymncards of specific individual hymns may also be accessed.

  • United Catholic Artists
    United Catholic Artists publishes Praise The Lord! The Complete Collection of Seasonal Psalms. It is a collection of all 24 seasonal psalms written with exact, verbatim Lectionary text approved by USCCB and ICEL. Sheet music, audio CDs and a video version that features each psalm along with visuals and words along the bottom are available from the website.
