This weekend at all Masses we will have the opportunity to sing a new setting of the Gloria. It is from A New Mass for Congregations by Carroll Andrews and it is #319 in our Gather hymnals. Once we learn it as a parish community, it will be a shorter and more direct version than some of the settings used in the past. It is my hope then, that after taking a few weeks to learn it, we will truly be able to pray the prayer together in song at Mass.
There is a generic audio recording available by clicking here and a video below. As with all things, the music will have its own life within our own community based on our parishioners, our instruments, and our church building and acoustics.
