My Top 10 Praise And Worship Songs

From singing songs such as Awesome God or Lord I Lift Your Name On High in elementary and middle school at Mass, to meeting Matt Maher and completely fangirling, I think it's safe to say that I've had my fair share of Catholic songs. Here are my top 10 praise and worship songs I've learned and loved throughout the years!

10. On Eagle's Wings

Okay, so this one may not be the most catchy or have the strongest lyrics, but it was played at my Grandpa's funeral Mass, so it'll always have a place in my top 10.

9. Christ Is Risen

One of my best friends and I love this song, it's pretty much our song. I will never get tired of shouting, "Oh! Death! Where is your sting? Oh! Hell! Where is your victory?"

8. Build My Life

I just recently learned this song and oh my gosh, it has been on repeat all summer long.

7. Land of the Rising Sun

I learned this song when I went to the Life Teen Leadership Conference in 2015, and it has been such. a. jam. This song reminds me of the week when everything changed, and I love the dance moves my parish made to go with the chorus (the choreography has the whip, #tbt).

6. Simplicity

This song is so pure. It's perfect for adoration, or any time you wanna be hit right in the feels.

5. Build Your Kingdom Here

Listen only if you want this to be stuck in your head for the next month. This song is so upbeat, fun, and a great song to close Mass with.

4. Overwhelmed

Honestly all I can say is that this song is so... wait for it... overwhelming.

3. It Is Well

This song is fantastic, but I'll never be able to enjoy it quite as much as I did listening to Emily Wilson sing it with all of her heart and soul as if it was the last song she would ever sing.

2. Lord, I Need You

No matter how old this song may get or however many times I hear it, this song will always be a pillar for me. This is the simplest of prayers, and yet it speaks volumes.

1. Always

Always actually moved mountains. I was in an auditorium filled with 500 people, and all the girls stood up and sang the first half of the chorus over and over again. We sang with each other and in that moment everyone was united. Then the girls sat, guys stood up, and they sang the second half. It was incredibly moving. Always will always be my number 1. I'm also certain that if I ever decide to get a tattoo, I'm getting "Always" on my wrist to remind me of that time and that my God will come through, always.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
