Offertory hymn: Maroon 75 O sacred head, sore wounded
Sanctus:
- At the 7:30 Mass: from Missa Populare "Laus Tibi Christe", music by Federico Caudana
- - We did this Mass setting back in November.
- At all other Masses: from Six Palm Sunday Acclamations, music by Franz Schubert

Memorial Acclamation: When we eat this bread and drink this cup, we proclaim your death, O Lord, until you come again, adapted from excerpts of the Gloria from the "Laus Tibi Christe" Mass.
Amen: The same triple "Amen" that ends the Gloria from the "Laus Tibi Christe" Mass.
- We also sang the Memorial and Amen throughout November as well.
Agnus Dei: also from the "Laus Tibi Christe" Mass
- this is the same tune as the Kyrie that we've been using throughout Lent.
Communion anthem: God so loved the world, by Sir John Stainer (from The Crucifixion)
- God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoso believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved.
Recessional hymn: Worship 497 To Jesus Christ, our sov'reign King
