# Praise Moments: The Boy Messiah

Jul 16, 2016 3:00:20 PM  |  by [Barb Szyszkiewicz](https://www.catholicmom.com/articles/author/barb-szyszkiewicz-ofs)

*Editor's Note: Today we kick off a new feature at CatholicMom.com, Praise Moments! We'll be sharing some of our favorite praise music as well as music news from contributors and friends of CatholicMom.com. Look for a new song each Saturday at noon Pacific!*

This week's Praise Moment is courtesy of Chris Stepien, whose guest article ["Should I Shave My Head or Write a Book?"](http://catholicmom.com/2016/07/13/shave-head-write-book/) was published at CatholicMom.com on July 13. Mr. Stepien suggested that we share a song that could inspire youth. "With the World Youth Day pilgrimage coming up, the song about the boy Messiah's pilgrimage could be a good theme for young people headed to Krakow," he observes. The song "The Boy Messiah" is the theme song for Mr. Stepien's novel, ***[Three Days: the Search for the Boy Messiah](http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/1937509923/catholicmom)***.
