NLM: What "Mass Setting" Should Your Parish Use?

Jeffrey Tucker of the New Liturgical Movement has a fabulous post on Latin Chant Mass settings using the Kyriale. He then links to a site entitled the Saint Antoine Daniel Latin Kyriale Gregorian Chant website.

Don't miss Mr. Tucker's explanation for why this site is so important and how your music director can use it for Mass settings during Advent and beyond. Fr. Zuhlsdorf also has some great comments on the Kyriale and on the Saint Antoine Daniel website.

To Thee all the Angels, the Heavens and all the Powers,		Tibi omnes Angeli; tibi Caeli et universae Potestates;
To Thee the Cherubim and Seraphim cry out without ceasing:		Tibi Cherubim et Seraphim incessabili voce proclamant:
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts!		Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dominus Deus Sabaoth.
Full are the Heavens and the earth of the majesty of Thy glory.		Pleni suntcaeli et terra maiestatis gloriae tuae.

the white-robed army of Martyrs, praise Thee.		Te Martyrum candidatus laudat exercitus.
Thee, the Holy Church throughout the world doth confess:		Te per orbem terrarum sancta confitetur Ecclesia,
The Father of infinite Majesty;		Patrem immensae maiestatis:
Thy adorable, true and only Son;		Venerandum tuum verum et unicum Filium;
Also the Holy Ghost, the Comforter.		Sanctum quoque Paraclitum Spiritum.
Thou, O Christ, are the King of glory!		Tu Rex gloriae, Christe.

Thou, having taken it upon Thyself to deliver man, didst not disdain the Virgin's womb.		Tu ad liberandum suscepturus hominem, non horruisti Virginis uterum.
Thou, having overcome the sting of death, hast opened to believers the Kingdom of Heaven.		Tu, devicto mortis aculeo, aperuisti credentibus regna caelorum.

Thou, we believe, art the Judge to come.		Iudex crederis esse venturus.

Note:
This longer title of this partially indulgenced prayer, which dates to at
least A.D. 502, is "Te Deum Laudamus." This prayer is a part of the
Divine Office, prayed at the end of Matins, and is also sung in thanksgiving to
God for some special blessing (e.g. the election of a pope, the consecration
of a bishop, the canonization of a saint, the profession of a religious,
the publication of a treaty of peace, a royal coronation, etc.) -- usually
after Mass or Divine Office, or as a separate religious ceremony.

The Te Deum is also called the "Ambrosian Hymn" and its authorship
has been attributed by various writers to St. Ambrose, St. Augustine, St. Hilarius,
St. Abundius, St. Sisebutus, and St. Nicetus. An 8th century legend attributes
it to both St. Ambrose and St. Augustine: they, according to the story, both
sang it spontaneously on the night the latter was baptized (A.D. 387).

Catholic Review Online: City Council passes bill focused on pro-life pregnancy centers

George Matysek, Jr. reports that the Baltimore City Council passed a controversial bill focused on Pro-Life Pregnancy centers operating within Baltimore City. The bill could well prove to be a template for legislation in other locales. Archbishop Edwin F. O'Brien had made his views known regarding this unprecedented move:

What do these pregnancy resource centers do that could possibly explain such unwarranted scrutiny by our City Council? Among the free help they offer are pregnancy tests, sonograms, maternity and baby clothes, confidential counseling and parenting classes. Assisting these centers in their good work are the people of the Gabriel Network, which supplements the invaluable life-affirming resources provided by pregnancy resource centers by connecting women in need with “angel friends.” These volunteers stay with women in crisis throughout their pregnancies and beyond, helping them find housing, taking them to prenatal appointments, assisting them in obtaining scholarships to finish school and helping them find the resources they need for themselves and their children. In fact, I have heard stories of “angel friends” still in contact and friendship with their former clients 10 years later. These pregnancy resource centers and angel friends do the work of the Good Samaritan, the work necessary to building a culture of life, and the work required of us to accompany our commitment as a pro-life Church.

Sadly, the discriminatory bill targeting these pro-life pregnancy centers – which was sent to the full Council on a 3-1 Committee vote – may threaten these centers’ ability to provide the competent, compassionate and free care they so lovingly provide. Not surprisingly to those who have encountered the Christ-like love shared with clients at these centers, not a single real client who had visited a pregnancy center in Baltimore City testified at the hearing last week in favor of the bill, though there was a pregnancy center client who testified against it.

The Baltimore Sun had a detailed report earlier today.
