I haven’t bothered with the Lord’s Prayer settings in the past, but one of my current aims is to get our parish singing it. The options are to learn the Lord’s Prayer of whatever mass setting is being sung, our perhaps something like the Australian chant setting that I understand quite a few parishioners vaguely remember. It will be a point of discussion, but I also need to convince people that this is actually meant to be sung.
Our Father’s are often almost as upbeat as the Gloria but this one is a restrained flowing piece with three recognizably similar motifs (Our Father… , Thy kingdom… , and As we forgive… ) acting as microverses and a micro bridge (Give us…) It is a thoughtful piece of composition.
In the music I have there is no music for after the embolus so assume none is intended.
Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Love all the parts of the Glendalough Mass. recently purchased it. A couple of groups use it a fair bit.
Any chance of MP3 of it all.
