Scot Crandal Psalm Guidelines from the USCCB "61. After the first reading comes the responsorial Psalm, which is an integral part of the Liturgy of the Word and holds great liturgical and pastoral importance, because it fosters meditation on the word of God. The responsorial Psalm should correspond to each reading and should, as a rule, be taken from the Lectionary."

• It is preferable for the psalm to be sung, verbatim from the lectionary • Common psalms may be sung to foster greater participation • If necessary, verses may be recited in a way to foster meditation on the word • If absolutely necessary, the entire psalm may be recited Gospel Acclamation Guidelines

"62. After the reading that immediately precedes the Gospel, the Alleluia or another chant laid down by the rubrics is sung, as the liturgical time requires. An acclamation of this kind constitutes a rite or act in itself, by which the gathering of the faithful welcomes and greets the Lord who is about to speak to them in the Gospel and profess their faith by means of the chant. It is sung by everybody, standing, and is led by the choir or a cantor, being repeated as the case requires. The verse, on the other hand, is sung either by the choir or by a cantor."
