SUNDAY VI

II-16-14: MUSIC FOR HOLY MASS

Hymn numbers this weekend are found in the red Worship hymnal.

Ordinary of the Mass and Alleluia are the same as last weekend.

Entrance hymn: Sing praise to God who reigns above, #528 (Listen)

Psalm 119: Blessed are they who follow the law of the Lord, music by Royce Nickel


Offertory hymn: The living God my shepherd is, #612 (Listen)
- Not to be confused with the more commonly-sung The King of love my shepherd is, though both are based on Psalm 23.  The listen link given here is for the tune.  The text sung is yet another paraphrase of the same Psalm.

Communion anthem: God so loved the world, by Sir John Stainer
- 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, but that the world through him might be saved.

Meditation hymn: I sought the Lord, #593 (Listen)
- This is a different tune than the one we normally use in the Maroon hymnal, but easy to sing.

Recessional hymn: Sing praise to the Lord, #539 (Listen)

Peace,
