Pastor Weedon, browsing through the 1613 Magdeburg service book, found three antiphons he particularly enjoyed (free liturgical texts). He translated them here, here and here, and then pondered in his heart what it would be like to have them in English to sing. I capitulated, naturally. Here are three antiphons for use at the daily […]

Here are the introits for the six Sundays in Lent. Note on the text: Laetare features an antiphon drawn from Isaiah 66:10-11.
