Sing Unto the Lord: A Liturgical Hymnal. Anglican Music Publishing, 2023. 942 pp. $29.95 (hardcover).In my earlier article, I discussed the various criteria for picking an Anglican hymnal.[1] I did so as a starting point for writing a review of Sing Unto the Lord (SUL). As noted in the earlier article, this 2023 hymnal is offered as an alternative to the existing 20th century Episcopal (ECUSA) hymnals — The Hymnal (1940) and The Hymnal (1982) — as well as two 21st century Anglican hymnals: Book of Common Praise (2017) and Hymnal of the Heart (2023).[2] With the 2017 Book of Common Praise, the Reformed Episcopal Church (REC) sought to update Hymnal 1940 (H40) for REC or other Anglican parishes using traditional language — whether the 1928 prayer book, Rite I of the 1979 prayer book, or the “Traditional Language” edition of the ACNA prayer book. The BCP17 is published by Anglican House Publishers, which also publishes the ACNA prayer book. Since 2019, the publisher has also offered Magnify the Lord (MTL) intended for non-REC parishes; except for the name, it is identical to BCP17.Meanwhile, SUL is more of a successor to Hymnal 1982 (H82), but with the 2019 ACNA modern liturgy replacing Rite II. For both MTL and SUL, key liturgical texts determine the words for most of the hymnal’s service music. As a successor to H82, SUL is best suited for contemporary language parishes, or perhaps parishes that use both.This is the first of a two-part review of Sing Unto the Lord, focusing on its service music. In both parts, my review considers what is similar to and different from these earlier hymnals, to help an ACNA parish evaluating SUL as an alternative to one or more of these hymnals.About Sing Unto the LordSing Unto the Lord is a

Fixed and variable prayers of the Rite I Eucharist and Offices. ↑Matthew S.C. Olver, “New Rites: Expansive, Inclusive, or Stifling?” Covenant, November 14, 2018, ↑J.W. West, “And with your spirit,” August 1, 2008, ↑In January 1978, the New York Times reported the consecration of the four founding bishops of the “Anglican Church of North America.” However, the group soon broke apart, forming the three earliest jurisdictions of the (perennially fractured) “Continuing” Anglican movement. See J.W. West, “Celebrating 30 years of schism,” January 28, 2008, ↑The publication is labelled The Book of Common Prayer (2019) Traditional Language Edition 2022, but for simplicity’s sake, here I refer to it as the “2022” or “TLE” prayer book. ↑The setting shared by these four hymnals dates to 1927 and The Choral Service (New York: H.W. Gray, 1927) In it, Winfred Douglas shifted from the Sarum setting to a more ancient Roman setting, and this pattern has been followed ever since. See “S 112 Lift up your hearts Sursum corda,” Hymnal 1982 Companion, vol. 2 (New York: Church Hymnal Corporation, 1994), 91-94. ↑H82 and SUtL share exactly one setting of the Trisagion, the one by Russian composer Alexander Arkhangelsky (1846-1924). It is the only setting I’ve ever heard sung, when my family sang it seasonally at a Continuing church in Palo Alto. ↑The Benedictus qui venit was dropped in the 1552 Book of Common Prayer with its more Reformed emphasis. It was also omitted from the 1559, 1662 and subsequent prayer books, until the 1962 Canadian prayer book where (as in the 1979 America prayer book) it became an optional addition. ↑Consistent with the 1662 but inconsistent with 21st century worship, the Benedictus qui venit is omitted from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer: International Edition. ↑Not shown are six Greek language Kyrie settings in

Settings for the ACNA’s 2019 Book of Common Prayer, as well as a balance of modern settings for Morning and Evening Prayer.For the Traditional Language Edition, the story is somewhat disappointing, with a small choice of Mass settings, and no Morning Prayer canticles. Still, it is adequate for a mixed-use parish. Alternately, the TLE service could be supported by a booklet or mass handout rather than the hymnal when a third Mass setting or Morning Prayer canticles are needed. However, I suspect that for most parishes, the main factor in choosing a new hymnal will be its portfolio of hymns for the entire church year. Please stay tuned for the final review installment.NotesJoel W. West, “Anglican Hymnals in the 21st Century,” North American Anglican, July 19, 2024, ↑The first three are comprehensive hymnals, while Hymnal of the Heart is intentionally simplified. ↑The Book of Common Praise 2017 was a hymnal officially sponsored and developed by a committee of the Reformed Episcopal Church, as a replacement for the 1943 REC hymnal of the same name; neither should be confused with a 1938 Canadian hymnal entitled The Book of Common Praise, Being the Hymn Book of the Church of England in Canada. The BCP17 and MTL editions of the hymnal have been adopted by some but not all REC parishes, as well as a few ACNA and even Continuing parishes. Here I use “MTL” to refer to both editions, to reduce confusion between the BCP 2017 hymnal and the 2019 BCP liturgy. ↑The Hymnal (1916) has a 56-page section labelled “The Morning and Evening Canticles and Occasional Anthems.” However, unlike its 1940 replacement, it does not include any Mass settings. ↑Elizabeth Morris Downey, “A Survey of Service Music in The Hymnal 1982,” Hymnal 1982 Companion, vol. 1 (New York: Church Hymnal Corporation,

With a professional cathedral or elite choirs such as those in the English college chapels, the emphasis was on variety, often meaning a new Mass or Office setting every week (perhaps in a rotation of several dozen settings). Conversely, for congregational singing (or with a small choir), the goal is to master a small number of settings through repeated use. For congregation members without formal music training, learning through repetition is the only way they can participate in singing the Mass.Since the publication of H40, the typical pattern for Episcopal (and now Anglican) churches seems to be to rotate two or three settings during the liturgical year, for penitential, festal and ordinary seasons. Even with such a rotation, many parishes will use the same arrangement year-round for the more difficult pieces, typically the Creed and the Lord’s Prayer. The American hymnals — H40, H82, MTL and now SUL — thus include enough Mass settings for such rotation. These are not enough settings for the English practice of having the choir perform a rotation of 10 or more Mass settings

Cross-referenced to specific hymn paraphrases of the text that are printed in the main body of the hymnal. ↑In the 1549-1662 English BCP, before the variable Psalm, MP began with all 11 verses of Psalm 95, a psalm whose Latin incipit is Venite, exultemus Domino. The American-invented “Venite” (published in the 1789-1979 BCP) is a composite of Psalm 95:1-7 and Psalm 96:9,13 — although both 1928 and 1979 offer a choice between this composite or the full Psalm 95. The 2019 BCP compromise is to recite Psalm 95:1-7, but to make verses 8-11 (unfamiliar to many American ears) optional outside of Lent. ↑H82 has six settings of the Venite and three of Psalm 95 — none carried over from H40. ↑For example, for the 2019 Jubilate, only 4 words are different between the modern and traditional language: “you lands” (vs. “ye”), “has made us (vs. “hath”). ↑Prayers We Have in Common, p. 20. ↑Phos Hilaron is a 3rd or 4th century Greek Orthodox hymn, and the 2019 prayer book has reinstated the opening phrase used in Victorian England (“O gladsome light”) in place of the idiosyncratic 1979 one (“O gracious light”). ↑Here I am not counting Preces, Responses and Suffrages, both because hymnals group them differently, and because some hymnals do a better job than others of writing down was already common practice. ↑The Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis of H40 are updates of settings published in Charles Winfred Douglas, The Canticles at Evensong (New York: H.W. Gray, 1915), 39-41 and 50-51.

Psalm settings of Tallis and Byrd — and others argue it predates the Reformation[13] — the compact musical notation (of chords without specific words) appears to date to the 18th century.[14] It is not used for Mass settings, but instead for the other worship canticles and (in some cases) the Psalms.[15]More the 18,000 Anglican chant settings are known to exist. So far, the Anglican Chant Index has indexed 226 chant books from 1690 through 2023, including more than 100 from 19th century England.[16] Such chant plays a prominent role in the Daily Office settings of the three 20th century American hymnals (H16,H40,H82) as well as MTL. While the notation is compact, it requires knowing for each verse when to shift to the new notes — through notations in the text a process known as “pointing.” Because the pointing varies from verse to verse, some believe that Anglican Chant is difficult to learn, particularly with new texts such as the Psalms. However, when one text is regularly used with the same tune, I have found this is usually no more difficult than learning any other text-tune combination.[17] H40 includes a half page explaining how to sing Anglican Chant, while MTL provides a complete four-page tutorial that would be useful for any choir or congregation. SUL solves this problem by eliminating the use of Anglican Chant notation, and instead grouping words in under the appropriate notes; this also eliminates the need for pointing.Simplified Anglican Chant has two chords per half verse, and with a different pattern for odd and even verses. Unlike Anglican Chant, no explicit pointing is needed, because the chord always changes on the last word of each half verse.The simplified approach was promoted in the mid-20th century Episcopal Church as an easier way of chanting the psalms.

Variously known as the Greatest Story Ever Told, The Book of Books and many other names, the Bible is reputed to be the biggest bestseller of all time. Translated into thousands of world languages and studied, worshiped and revered in the four corners of the earth, the Bible remains Christianity's canonical text and is considered the Word of God. The King James Version (KJV) is a translation commissioned by the Church of England in 1604 and the work continued till 1611. However, it wasn't the first translation into English from the original Hebrew, and some portions in Aramaic. Two earlier English translations had been approved by the Anglican Church, but this third version was commissioned in response to some perceived mistakes and flaws in earlier translations which were found to be unsatisfactory by the Puritans. King James VI ascended the English throne at the age of thirteen months after his mother Mary Queen of Scots was forced to abdicate in his favor. With his reign, the three kingdoms of England, Scotland and Ireland came under the Crown. The Jacobean Age was famous for the flowering of literary and artistic movements. Shakespeare, Marlowe, John Donne and a host of poets, playwrights and writers contributed to the rich literary environment. The KJV was ordered so that it would reflect the Episcopal structure of the Anglican Church and the ordained stature of English clergy. More than 47 translators worked on it. The Old Testament was directly translated from the original Hebrew and Aramaic, while the New Testament was from a Greek version. A Catechism was added to The Book of Common Prayer. The KJV soon gained popularity and supplanted all other versions over a very short period. The version we have today has remained almost unchanged since the 19th century and is exclusively used everywhere in the Protestant world. It has had a huge impact on English literature over the four hundred odd years of its life and its literary and lyrical qualities have been praised by people of all religions. Apart from being a sacred text, it has immense cultural and literary value. Thousands of phrases, idioms and usages from the KJV have found their way into everyday communication in English. It has added to the richness and depth of the language across the centuries and inspired millions of writers, artists, poets and musicians to create beautiful and enduring works. Truly a magnificent and memorable read for people of any age or faith.. Anglican Gradual Sacramentary. Anglican Priests for Life. Anglicans for Life. Anglican Homilies.

1990, Elizabeth Downey explained:[M]any ways of singing psalms are being tried… Simplified Anglican chant is one way which has met with wide success; it does not require the use of a pointed text, and relies upon a simple melodic formula with accompaniment. …The very simplicity which is such an asset at the beginning may, after a period of time, seem less adequate for praying the psalms. A long-term plan for gradually introducing other chants should be developed; a congregation might move from the simplified form to the more structured, pointed Anglican chant, or to responsorial plainsong…[18]In previous hymnals, stand-alone simplified chants were provided by the “Appendix” of H82 (nine) and in the printed MTL (12).[19] However, these chants were not matched to any specific text. For SUL, all the simplified chants are assigned to specific texts.Beyond these three categories, SUL also classifies some music as Simplified Gregorian Chant; although not a term with a standardized definition, it is as good a term as any. It’s a unison plainchant sung like any other monophonic chant: however, it is written out more like Anglican chant, but with the passing notes at the beginning and the long reciting tone in the middle. Both H40 and MTL have a number of examples of this approach, including a familiar Venite.[20]In addition to these four categories — plainchant (“Gregorian Chant”), Anglican Chant, Simplified Anglican Chant, and Simplified Gregorian Chant — SUL uses a few other terms to label its service music. The most frequent is “Modern Arrangement”, but it also includes “Contemporary Folk”. For 12 pieces of music indexed in the service music but printed in the body of the hymnal, nine of these cross-referenced pieces are labeled “Metrical Hymn”, i.e. use modified texts that conform to the strophic pattern of a hymn. Unlike earlier hymnals,
