MUSIC FOR HOLY MASS
Entrance hymn: #576 O God, our help in ages past ("St. Anne") (Listen)
- Today's Introit from the Missal: "Be my protector, O God, a mighty stronghold to save me..."
Gloria: Holy Angels Mass (BMP) or recited (Listen)
Psalm 1: R./ Blessed are they who hope in the Lord (BMP) (PDF)
Alleluia I for Ordinary Time (BMP)
Offertory hymn: #598 Sing with all the saints in glory ("Hymn to Joy") (Listen)
- Same tune as "Joyful, joyful, we adore thee", which will come up the following week. Normally one would sing "Sing with all the saints in glory" in Eastertide, but the second reading tells it all - "Christ is risen, is the firstfruits.."

Meditation hymn: #345 Gift of finest wheat ("Bicentennial") (vv. 1-3) (Listen)
- "They ate and had their fill..." (Communion Proper from the Missal). This hymn was commissioned in 1976 as the official hymn of the 41st Eucharistic Congress which took place in Philadelphia. In earlier hymnals, the tune was given as "Eucharistic Congress" and copyrighted by the Board of Governors, 41st Eucharist Congress. Current hymnals now list the tune as "Bicentennial" (after all, it was first sung during the year of our nation's bicentennial) and copyright assigned to the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. The text was written by Omer Westendorf, who is famous for many hymns that appeared in just about every edition of "People's Mass Book" from the 1960s to today.
Recessional hymn: #206 Holy God, we praise thy Name ("Grosser Gott")
- Do we really need a listen link for this classic?
