Nice! Which Dona Nobis Pacem are you using? The traditional round or the Norbert version?
 
This weekend, I went to an Into the Wild retreat for Catholic men, and we had Mass every day. This morning before our Rosary procession to the outdoor church these men built, they played the taps. The music for the Mass was this:

Processional Hymn: My Country 'Tis of Thee AMERICA
Preparation of the Gifts: Faith of Our Fathers ST. CATHERINE
Communion Hymn: Christ, Be Our Light Farrell
Recessional Hymn: Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory/The Battle Hymn of the Republic

It was really beautiful.
 
My suggestions for next weekend:

Sunday, September 18, 2011 - Twenty-Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year A

Processional Hymn: #214 Holy, Holy, Holy NICAEA
Preparation of the Gifts: #508 Only This I Want Schutte
Communion Hymn: #325 Gift of Finest Wheat BICENTENNIAL
Recessional Hymn: #560 From All That Dwell Below the Skies DUKE STREET
 
I probably should have let CatholicZ09 do this one, but he hasn’t yet:

We are switching to Gather 3rd ed. when the new Liturgy starts in November so I’m going to buy the keyboard ed. and get started seeing what’s new. Love learning new stuff!

Our Gather hymnal is about 15 years old. I am going to have to look into options for adding the new translations, probably in the back, to extend their life for another decade.
 
My parish currently uses Catholic Community Hymnal (GIA). I am looking into Gather 3rd, for two reasons.
  1. CCH is about 3/4 the size of Gather 3rd and has more traditional hymns than I use.
  2. New Settings are there 😉
The way we are handling the text is by little leaflets that have the full text. 95% of the congregation can’t read music anyway, so why bother buying Assembly Editions every time I introduce a new Mass Setting?
 
Here is where I ended up:

Prayer of St. Francis
America the Beautiful
Take and Eat
Dona Nobis Pacem
God Bless America

I am going to use Let Their Be Peace on Earth also, come tomorrow.
This is what I used last weekend:

All Are Welcome
Prayer of St. Francis
Now We Remain
Let There Be Peace On Earth
 
Suggestions for next weekend:

Sunday, September 25, 2011 - Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year A

Processional Hymn: #552 All Creatures of Our God and King LASST UNS ERFREUEN
Preparation of the Gifts: #445 To You, O Lord Alstott
Communion Hymn: #596 Where My Father Lives Ridge
Recessional Hymn: #557 Praise the Lord, Ye Heavens Adore Him HYMN TO JOY

This is what my music director has:

Processional Hymn: #407 All Are Welcome Haugen
Preparation of the Gifts: #532 Hold Me in Life Huijbers
Communion Hymn: #535 We Remember Haugen
Recessional Hymn: #202 Now Thank We All Our God NUN DANKET

Hi, H –

Gather’s got some gems, and wonderful keyboard arrangements. Seem to find something “new” every time I open it up to putz around on my office keyboard.

Sang a wedding last night where the (young) bride requested a song I could only find in Gather: Wherever You Go (Haas). Beautiful!

Best,
A

Hi A,
Love Wherever you go by Haas. We are excited to return to Gather after our 10 year hiatus with JourneySongs. It will be nice to see what’s new.
BTW, I absolutely love your selections! I’d love to sit in and play/sing with your amazing choir.
peace,

Thank you! Sorry to ask, but why do you think your music director wouldn’t use the Sibelius at your parish? Such a “familiar” tune, even to those who don’t think they know it, and so many prayerful songs set to it…
