Recordings from 4/9/11 Mass

Next week is Palm Sunday, so this is mostly the end of our Lenten music.

I love "O Sacred Head."  What a beautiful hymn. The Blue Book lists it under "Good Friday" but everyone knows there's no instrumental music allowed on Good Friday, RIGHT?  Hehe.  I don't get to participate on Good Friday anyway, so this is our opportunity to sing it.

O Sacred Head Surrounded

Psalm - "With the Lord there is mercy and fullness of redemption."

I wondered why only the refrain of "Parce Domine" is printed in the blue book.  After performing it, I know why; those verses are a PAIN, and a congregation would necessarily make a mess of it.

Parce Domine

I'm sure the congregation will be happy when this Lenten response is over.

Communion Psalm

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
