Product Description:
These songs more or less wrote themselves as God inspired them. Often I would write the guitar parts and the words would flow into them like a river flowing into the ocean. When they were finished they often felt like I witnessed them being born instead of me having a great deal to do with them. I thank God, Jesus and Mary for the blessings of the songs and the music.

In The Hour Before Dawn,Father Peter Bowes,Sophia Records,Acoustic folk/rock sound with intense devotional lyrics and message.

Songs of Peace and Gentle Grattitude.......2004-04-03

This is Fr. Peter Bowes' third CD and it is just as beautiful and moving as the first two albums. Fr. Peter's message is a simple one; open your heart to God's Love and to the Light of Jesus and Mary. His style is a gentle, folky accoustic sound with some songs featuring the traditional rock/blues setup of electric and bass guitars, drums and sometimes traditional instruments like flute and cello. One can hear the influences of artists like Bob Dylan, Peter Paul and Mary, Simon and Garfunkel and other great folk musicians of past and present. Of course, Fr. Peter's deepest inspiration goes far beyond any musical artist. His greatest love is for the Divine Composer of this Universe, of this world and of our souls.
