about

Crucifixion

lyrics

And on that darkest day
when all the others had run,
not afraid to be seen
She stood with Mary [Magdalene] and John

She was the first to believe
and guard You when you were young
confident all the while
in who You were from day one

Numbered were the words that You had left
as You hung there in bitter, painful stress
You wanted to give us just one last gift:
"Behold your mother now", she is never far
the sea's own shining star

With tenderness she will light
the path that leads to her Son
so He can teach us the truth
and how to suffer as one

The medicine for our salvation,
not punishment for our damnation
He took the fall for cursed men to show
the depths that He would go
to break the fetter's hold
and welcome us back home

about

Peter Johnston RVA Richmond, Virginia

To put it simply, Peter Johnston RVA is Catholic indie rock; you
wouldn't hear this at mass, but it does try to prove that traditional Catholic thought and indie rock are not mutually exclusive. It began easily enough as a few home recordings but has slowly turned into a full on project that explores matters of human dignity and common good in society.
Sincerely yours,
Peter Johnston RVA
