Album Notes

This music is first and foremost a working example of St. Augustine’s words, “To sing is to pray twice”. What makes this music unique, are the vibrant vocal solos accompanied by fresh choral voices and inventive instrumental arrangements. Each track possesses its own ability to lift your mind and your heart. You will continue to experience new beginnings and new personal awakenings each time you listen to the songs on this album.

Nicole Nerli and Lisa Carleo provide high quality inspirational liturgical music each week at their parish in Paramus, New Jersey. Sunday after Sunday, worshipers are blessed with the beautiful voices of their choir members and the talent of professional musicians who often accompany them during special liturgies and performances.

Everyone in the recording studio was touched by the music and came away from the sessions with some very personal experiences. Listen to what Paul Moran had to say after he completed mixing and producing the tracks on this album. “I would like to dedicate all the work I did on this project to 3 very special people. Mom, I struggled to find the core of this song until I realized it was you. Your beauty, heart, and faith have always inspired me, “He Will Carry Me” is yours. To my grandmother: your compassion and abilities to forgive taught me so much. Your Life is my guide. Lastly, Vanessa, thank you for being there when I get home, putting things into perspective and for being my Best Friend, I love you.”

All of these songs truly express a conversation with God. And so in Thanksgiving and Praise this CD is dedicated to Him, the Lord of Eternity!
