6th Sunday in Ordinary Time (C • 2025)
Greetings All—
Happy Snowmageddon! Since we cannot have rehearsal (I swear Wednesday walks around with a target on its back…) please take a little time Wednesday evening from the comfort of your home to familiarize yourself with Sunday’s ordo.
Please —I repeat: please—take a moment to scan through some of the lenten stuff, especially the first thing which will be our Lenten Gospel Acclamation this year.
Since this is a bit of an exceptional circumstance, and I’ve now figured out how to record myself and the organ in a pleasing way, I’ve prepared a quick “mini rehearsal” for you. This is just a quick whirlwind run-through of the ordo for Sunday, as well as a quick word about the Lenten Gospel acclamation.
Entrance Antiphon Hymn: to the tune VIVIFICA ME (melody only, see below)
Entrance Antiphon: Source & Summit (see below)
Psalm: 1, Blessèd are they who hope in the Lord. (Playlist, add-free mp3’s below)
Offertory Antiphon: Source & Summit (see below)
Offertory Hymn: Be Thou My Vision to the tune SLANE
Communion Antiphon: Fr. Weber #1038 (see below)
Choral Anthem: The Beatitudes (After O’Donnell; see below)
Communion Hymn: Blest Are the Humble Souls Who See to the tune O WALY WALY (melody only)
Recessional Hymn: Praise to the Lord, the Almight, the King of Creation! to the tune LOBE DEN HERREN
Entrance Antiphon Hymn Melody:
Please Note: the practice track of the introit is from last year and the verse formula is different.
Choral Anthem: The Beatitudes (after O’Donnell’s Psalm 139)
*NB: this is the same chordal formula as Quicumque vult / Athanasian Creed.
Lenten Lookahead:
The Lotti Miserere track (above) is organ-only, but there are time stamps to hear your part at a louder volume. I intend to make a proper PT of this, time permitting.
