Here is my parish music…
Procession in the Church: Palm Sunday Procession (Walker)
We started using this last year. To keep it simple for the congregation, we do the following:
– verse 1 as the refrain
– refrain is sung 4 times at start and between verses
– other ‘verses’ are sung by the cantor as verses
– verse 1 coda at end of final refrain
Psalm: My God, My God (Haugen)
Response to Passion: Glory in the Cross (Easter version) – verse 1 & refrain
POG: Passion Chorale – quiet music
Communion: Now We Remain (Haas)
Sending Forth: Jesus, Remember Me (Berthier)
At our parish:
E: Hosanna (Taize)
Psalm: My God, My God (Ed Bolduc)
PoG: Blest Are You Lord (Aniceto Nazareth)
C: Tree of Life (Aaron Thompson)
Hail Redeemer, King Divine (Brennan)
R: – (no recessional – silent transition into Holy Week)
Our Palm Sunday line-up: African community leading this week.
Ent: Hosanna – Carl Tuttle
No psalm, no one knew a setting
PoG: Take our Bread (Joe Wise)
Comm: The Old Rugged Cross – George Bennard (1873-1958)
(Not a song I’d ever contemplated for liturgy before coming to Ireland. But both the Irish and the Africans use it around Easter Week)
Recess: He is the King of Kings – Virgil Meares
I grew up with “The Old Rugged Cross” in our Presbyterian church. I would never have thought of it for liturgy.
Thanks for posting.
