A major publishing event











The publication of the Grail Psalter in the late 1950s was an event of great significance for English-
speaking Catholics.


It is no exaggeration to say that until then the psalter was largely a closed book. The Grail opened it up and gave us a way of using the psalms in a way that respects their true nature, as songs. Its adoption for both the Lectionary and the Liturgy of the Hours has enriched the spiritual life of several generations of worshippers. Words and phrases from the Psalms are on the lips and in the memories of everyone who has grown up in the Church since Vatican II.
For several years the Grail Psalter has been undergoing a revision, in the light of contemporary principles of Scripture scholarship, matters of authentic translation, and the requirements of Liturgiam Authenticam, the 2001 Instruction enunciating principles for the translation of liturgical texts. This revision has been undertaken by the monks of Conception Abbey, Missouri, under the direction of Abbot Gregory J. Polan, OSB, and ensures that the Grail psalms will play an important part in the liturgy for years to come.
(Note. This version has not yet ben approved for liturgical use in the UK.)

A sample text is found below, Psalm 63 (62 in the UK Lectionary) one of the most familiar psalms.

The Revised Grail Psalms received a recognitio from the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments in the spring of 2010 and was published by GIA Publications, Inc. of Chicago, Illinois on January 3, 2011.

GIA are the worldwide agents for this version. In a press release of 1 December, GIA said that it is ‘privileged to be the agent of this important translation and is gratified that this translation - many years in the making - will finally be available to musicians, liturgists, and worshippers around the world.’ Decani Music, GIA’s UK distributor, is very pleased to be associated with this major publication.

There will be two editions:
1. The complete text of the Revised Grail Psalms, similar to previous editions of the Grail quality paperback, G-­7882, £8.60
2. A pointed edition, or Singing Version, G-­7984, £8.60

Amen to the Body of Christ

Amen to the Body of Christ


Price: £1.75

Quantity:

This addresses one of the most urgent needs of the liturgy, processional songs for Communion. All have a refrain (one is an ostinato) and verses with SATB parts. The texts of Delores Dufner are of her usual high quality, and the music is by the fine Canadian composer Michel Guimont. The titles: Alleluia, risen Christ; Amen to the Body of Christ; Bread of life, cup of blessing; Brightness of beauty; For countless blessings; God’s banquet; In the breaking of bread; Jesus, ever-flowing fountain.Sundays 17-21 of Year B feature John chapter 6 over five weeks; these songs would be ideal then.

In this hectic world, we often forsake our prayer lives for the demanding pressures of day-to-day living. My Morning Prayer was conceived out of the desire to find alternate ways for people to spend time in prayer. Ideal for commuters, this two-CD set contains seven separate settings of morning prayer, one for each day of the week. Each service lasts for approximately twenty minutes and includes a morning hymn, two psalms with psalm prayers, a scripture passage, a canticle, intercessions, the Lord's Prayer, a concluding prayer, and a blessing. The canticle, intercessions, Lord's Prayer, and blessing are repeated each day, while the hymns and psalms are unique to each day.

This CD might be used in small group settings or by anyone who finds it challenging to pray in a meaningful way on a regular basis. Just pick a day, and pray! You will find many familiar titles, providing an opportunity to memorize the services after repeated use.

Seasonal Songs for Gathering, Interceding,and Communion
Tony Alonso and Gabe Huck

By Heart is an ambitious project that aims to join the liturgical rites of gathering, intercession, and communion with music of the seasons in such a way that participation becomes second nature. Simple arrangements of familiar songs like 'O Come, O Come Emmanuel' and John Bell’s 'Take, O Take Me As I Am' are wedded to new texts and demonstrate how 'music and ritual can be so woven together that they become a single reality'. The full score offers detailed information about the background of this project and how to use it to the full.
