Darillyn Patterson - FOREVER MORE A PRIEST.

There is no band. This is a solo performance.

Many hearts and minds will be touched by the lyrics of these songs, which are Divinely inspired.

This CD is God's work. It was not something Darillyn planned to do. Inspired to follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit, she allowed herself to be used for God's purpose. As she puts it, "This has been a labor of love for the Lord."

Each person will be touched differently by the messages in these songs, yet all WILL be touched somehow

"When we had the Year of the Priest, I was inspired to write a song about the priesthood. It was my decision to write 12 verses for this song because of the 12 Apostles -- the first priests."

Think back to when the Lord called you
Think back to when the Lord called you
to be a priest for Him.
Perhaps you waited for awhile
before you would give in.

You might have thought, “This can’t be true.
I don’t have what it takes.
I’m just a sinful, selfish man.
There must be some mistake."

Some time went by, a year or two,
or maybe even more.
But then the call became so strong,
one you could not ignore.

Now that you have become a priest,
a shepherd of God's flock,
souls are entrusted to your care.
As Peter, who was "the rock".

You realize how great it is,
this life of sacrifice.
God grants the graces that you need
for this, your priestly life.

How truly glorious it is
to be an "other" Christ!
Without the priest the Church would die;
you're keeping it alive.

Without the priest we would not have
the Holy Eucharist.
It is the priest alone who can
absolve us of our sins.

Salvation of souls must always be
a priest's priority.
God uses you to help us be with Him
for all eternity.

Stay close in prayer with Christ, our Lord,
and Blessed Mother, too.
Trust them to keep you safe from harm;
Satan is hunting you!

Be perseverant as you try
to do what God requests.
Be faithful to Him in all you do,
and you’ll be truly blessed.

I ask all people of good will
to daily pray for you,
and offer up some sacrifice
as you so often do.

Praise God for making you a priest!
Yes, praise His Holy Name!
You are a priest forevermore,
and that you will remain.

Father, you are a priest forevermore,
and this you will remain. Amen!
