Grrr.<br /><br />I am completely spoiled by having a faithful pastor at home!Elephantschildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14610471467736150461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-49977915210021224132009-04-19T14:46:00.000-05:002009-04-19T14:46:00.000-05:00Now all the vault - what a great hymn!

Yes, the Venite before the Risen One and the Te Deum - "when thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, Thou didst open the kingdom of heaven to all believers!"

We used Matins from the LSB, sang the Venite but for the Te Deum we used the setting in TLH (my parish uses both). I loved every word of it. <br /><br />For the ten years I was a Catholic I never once heard the Athanasian Creed prayed nor the Te Deum sung. I doubt if the younger Catholics in the pews even know what they are anymore.<br /><br />Sad.<br /><br />ChristineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
