V EASTER at 8:00

In light of the election of Pope Leo XIV, last Sunday's postlude was Long live the Pope.  I really wish this would be in more hymnals.

Hymnody for this Sunday's 8:00 Mass will be of a seasonal nature for Easter.

MUSIC FOR HOLY MASS

Entrance hymn: #180 Christ the Lord is ris'n today ("Llanfair") (Listen)

- Not to be confused with "Jesus Christ is ris'n today", which we sang on Easter Sunday and the Sunday after that.

Gloria: Holy Angels Mass (BMP) (Listen) or recited

Psalm 145: R./ I will praise your Name for ever, my King and my God (BMP) (PDF)

Alleluia "O Filii et Filiae" (Mode II/arr. and verse music by BMP)

Offertory hymn: #710 Ye watchers and ye holy ones ("Lasst uns Erfreuen") (Listen)

- This is the same tune as another hymn in the Breaking Bread hymnal that should be familiar as well, "All creatures of our God and King".

Sanctus: #874 Heritage Mass (Owen Alstott)

Memorial Acclamation and Amen: Missa Cristo Risusciti (Luigi Picchi, adapted by BMP)

Agnus Dei: #879 Heritage Mass (Owen Alstott)

Responsory during Communion: Psalm 80, R./ I am the true vine, you are the brances, alleluia. (BMP) (PDF)

Meditation hymn: #191 Be joyful, Mary, heav'nly Queen ("Regina Caeli, Jubila")

Recessional hymn: #598 Sing with all the saints in glory ("Hymn to Joy")

- Same tune as the very much familiar "Joyful, joyful, we adore thee".
