Music for Sunday 11 September 2011

This has been an unusually difficult week for which to choose hymns, given that the tenth anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York fall on the day.  Providentially, the priest at Jika Jika has decided to keep the Exaltation of the Holy Cross this week, which provides a few themes to move along.  There are a number of other initiatives around for the anniversary, including a page of resources on Text Week and Awareness Sunday publishes a variety of materials for liturgical use.

Readings for this week can be found here, following the Roman options, and the psalm will be sung to this setting.

The service setting will be Philip Matthias's Christ Church Mass, with a Taize setting replacing the Gloria at All Saints.

Hymns are as follows:

Introit: Lift high the Cross [351]
Sequence: In the cross of Christ I glory [349]
Offertory: God, we've known such grief and anger [tune: Cross of Jesus, 136]
Communion: And now, O Father, mindful of the love [519]
