Sunday 22, 2011

Unless a grain of wheat – Bernadette Farrell
(Old) Lourdes Gloria – Jean Paul Lécot
Ps 60: My soul is thirsting – Bernadette Farrell
Summer Alleluia – Nick Baty
Come to the altar of God – Nick Baty
New Assisi Acclamations – Nick Baty
Agnus Graemus – Nick Baty
All that is hidden – Bernadette Farrell
Will you come and follow me – John Bell

As I listened to the homily today, I wondered if I'd made the right musical choices. The Gospel was not about carrying a personal cross, in the way a sick person might have to – illness can be a heavy burden to bear but it's not a choice. The message was about choosing to carry a cross for the sake of Christ. And listening to the reading from Jeremiah, I do wish I'd thought about Löwenthal's And you pursue me – it would have been perfect.
