About Liturgical Music For The Revised Common Lectionary
Product Description A planning guide for church musicians and clergy for selecting hymns, songs, and anthems, for the three-year liturgical cycle following the Revised Common Lectionary. Hymns and songs keyed to the appropriate liturgical occasion for Sundays in the Revised Common Lectionary for the three-year cycle. This is the first book of the three-book series (Years A, B, and C) Includes selections from The Hymnal 1982, Lift Every Voice and Sing, Wonder, Love, and Praise, Voices Found, and My Heart Sings Out. Tunes are cross referenced to choir and instrumental descant resources from Church Publishing. Each selection is coded for its appropriate use at the entrance, before the Gospel, at the offering of gifts, communion, or at the end of liturgy. Selections are listed by their relationship to the texts appointed for the day with indications which texts are direct quotes or paraphrases of the appointed scripture. First lines of hymns and songs include their page number and book location.

ISBN: 978-0-89869-614-1 INTRODUCTION AN INTRODUCTION TO THE HYMNS The hymns listed in this liturgical guide are intended to be a starting placefor those who plan Eucharistic worship following the Revised Common Lectionary.These suggestions are not a substitute for careful local planning but a surveyof the possibilities from which choices can be made. They provide a skeletonthat will need to be fleshed out according to the needs and capabilities of eachworshiping community. For example, in the "green seasons" between Epiphany andAsh Wednesday and between Trinity Sunday and Advent, it may be appropriate in agiven situation to use a general "Praise of God" hymn at the Entrance or a "HolyCommunion" hymn at that point in the service rather than one of suggestionsgiven here. Although this listing has been compiled from the authorized hymnal of theEpiscopal Church and its supplements published by Church Publishing, Inc., ithas been created with the hope that it will also be useful in a largerecumenical context. In that connection, it must be acknowledged that thequarter-century since the adoption of The Hymnal 1982 has been a very fruitfulone, both for the creation of new texts and tunes and for the compilation of newhymnals. As CPI's own publication of Michael Hudson's Songs for the Cycle (2004)attests, numerous writers have published collections of texts related tolectionary readings since the creation of H82. Some of these have beenincorporated into the supplements indexed here, but there are many more to beexplored. Also beyond what can be included here lies a wealth of settings thatnumerous composers have created for texts old and new. One of the best ways to become acquainted with the broader ecumenical contextfrom which the CPI supplements have been created is through The Hymn Society inthe United States and Canada. A quick glance at the "Author and ComposerCollections" section of their Book Service listings in any printed issue of TheHymn (or the online version at www.thehymnsociety.org/books) will show how manypossibilities there are. In addition to these texts and tunes that have come outof North American and European contexts, there is an abundance of materialcoming from Africa, Asia, and the other Americas.
