Music For
The Feast of Corpus Christi

Dear Fellow Parishioners,

This week we celebrate the Feast of Corpus Christi. The music for Mass this week should be familiar to you with the possible exception of the second communion song, ‘Song of Remembrance’ that the choir has sung in the past, but which is not in our missal, Breaking Bread. Here is a link if you want to hear it with all its harmony parts: https://youtu.be/YZUAB34d0k4. The words to this song and all the rest for this Sunday at the 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM Masses can be found in this attachment.

As you might imagine, the songs I’m sharing with you this week all focus on the Body and Blood of Christ.

First are two Latin hymns:

‘Tantum Ergo Sacramentum’
(unattributed, but sounds like Kitty Cleveland)

‘Panis Angelicus’ (Franck) sung by Elina Garanča

Next we have two with the same very unimaginative title, but with beautiful lyrics and music:

‘Communion Song’ by Laura Kaczor

‘Communion Song’ by Ben David Trigg
https://youtu.be/tSpV3j7R3dw

Another pair of songs with that share a title, but have very different melodies:

‘In Remembrance of Me’ sung by the Treblemakers

‘In Remembrance of Me’ by Cheri Keaggy
https://youtu.be/WReXhV7MpI0

Sorry, no toe-tappers today, but the last two have a country feel to them:

‘Table of Grace’ by Phillips, Craig & Dean

‘We Hunger and Thirst’ by Sovereign Grace
https://youtu.be/jq9i98gBL0A

I hope you enjoy them all. Have a great week! God bless.
