  • Introitus: the Entrance Chant of the Mass in the Roman Rite
    Introitus: The Entrance Chant of the mass in the Roman Rite The Introit (introitus in Latin) is the proper chant which begins the Roman rite Mass. There is a unique introit with its own proper text for each Sunday and feast day of the Roman liturgy. The introit is essentially an antiphon or refrain sung by a choir, with psalm verses sung by one or more cantors or by the entire choir. Like all Gregorian chant, the introit is in Latin, sung in unison, and with texts from the Bible, predominantly from the Psalter. The introits are found in the chant book with all the Mass propers, the Graduale Romanum, which was published in 1974 for the liturgy as reformed by the Second Vatican Council. (Nearly all the introit chants are in the same place as before the reform.) Some other chant genres (e.g. the gradual) are formulaic, but the introits are not. Rather, each introit antiphon is a very unique composition with its own character. Tradition has claimed that Pope St. Gregory the Great (d.604) ordered and arranged all the chant propers, and Gregorian chant takes its very name from the great pope. But it seems likely that the proper antiphons including the introit were selected and set a bit later in the seventh century under one of Gregory’s successors. They were sung for papal liturgies by the pope’s choir, which consisted of deacons and choirboys. The melodies then spread from Rome northward throughout Europe by musical missionaries who knew all the melodies for the entire church year by heart.

Part of our aim is that you be encouraged and helped to make use of the Psalms in your own worship, using them as a guide for prayer and Dietrich Bonhoeffer singing. To that end we have prepared this booklet with some suggested “Whenever the Psalter is abandoned, an incomparable treasure vanishes from resources and an explanation of metrical psalms. the Christian church. With its recovery will come unsuspected power.” Special thanks are due to Michael Garrett who put this booklet together. We Charles Spurgeon have incorporated some material previously prepared by James Grant as well. “Time was when the Psalms were not only rehearsed in all the churches from day to day, but they were so universally sung that the common people As God has seen fit to give us a book of prayers and songs, and since he has knew them, even if they did not know the letters in which they were written. so richly blessed its use in the past, surely we do well to make every use of it Time was when bishops would ordain no man to the ministry unless he knew today. May your knowledge of God, your daily experience of him be deeply “David” from end to end, and could repeat each psalm correctly; even Councils enhanced as you use his words to teach you to speak to him.

Book Title The word psalms comes from the Greek word psalmoi. It suggests the idea of a “praise song,” as does the Hebrew word tehillim. It is related to a Hebrew concept which means “the plucking of strings.” It means a song to be sung to the accompaniment of stringed instruments. The Psalms is a collection of worship songs sung to God by the people of Israel with musical accompaniment. The collection of these 150 psalms into one book served as the first hymnbook for God’s people, written and compiled to assist them in their worship of God. At first, because of the wide variety of these songs, this praise book was unnamed, but eventually the ancient Hebrews called it “The Book of Praises,” or simply “Praises.” This title reflects its main purpose──to assist believers in the proper worship of God.

  • “Saint Augustine Once Called the Psalter 'The Old Testament In
    “Saint Augustine once called the Psalter ‘the Old Testament in microcosm.’ All of the riches of the Scriptures filled in the mine of praise, prophecy, and poetry that is the Psalter. These riches, however, need to be brought to the light of day so they might adorn the life of the Christian. This powerful volume edited by Ray Van Neste and Richard Wells does just that. It brings the wealth of the Psalms to the life of the church: to be sung, read, and practiced. No doubt this is a volume that will be used in colleges and seminaries in courses on the Psalter.” Heath A. Thomas, associate professor of Old Testament and Hebrew and director of PhD Studies, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary “At a time when the psalms and most of the great hymns of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries are largely neglected in modern congregational worship, this book is a much needed wake-up call. Wells and Van Neste have edited a collection of excellent essays that remind us of the prominent place the psalms have had for Christians from New Testament times onward. The authors urge us to consider once again the spiritual benefits of focusing on the psalms and give practical guidance for their recovery in church life.” Graeme Goldsworthy, visiting lecturer in Hermeneutics, Moore Theological College, Sydney, Australia “This book is a welcome addition to the growing literature on the psalms. Its authors bring together many perspectives but are united in their conviction that the rediscovery of the Psalter encourages the ancient practice of living in the psalms, the reclamation of canoni- cal associations, the enrichment of coming into the presence of God with prayer and praise, and the renewal of congregational life.

  • THE USES of the PSALTER: Pt
    Bibliotheca Sacra 105 (Apr. 1948) 154-69. Copyright © 1996 by Dallas Theological Seminary. Cited with permission. Department of Semitics and Old Testament THE USES OF THE PSALTER: Pt. 1 BY CHARLES LEE FEINBERG, TH.D., PH.D. Important as other phases of the interpretation of the Psalter may be, and we should be the last to minimize the significance of any aspect, none is of greater importance than the use for which the Psalter was intended. Upon this field archaeology has shed much light and made notable con- tributions. The two scholars who have made the most intensive study of the manner in which the Psalter was utilized in the life of the Hebrew people, based upon their researches into the results of archaeological findings, are Hermann Gunkel and Sigmund Mowinckel, the former a German and the latter a Norwegian scholar. The lines of investigation that they suggest are carried out also by the English C. C. Keet and the American John P. Peters. From the conclusions of these scholars it is clear that the Psalter was collected for use in the Temple liturgy and meant to fill the need for every form of worship.1 Welch claims that the Psalter was no private collection of hymns, but an offi- cial one. However, though these hymns were intended in large measure for use in the Temple worship and its God- appointed rituals, they have been able to separate them- selves selves from their original setting- and usage, maintaining their place in the community's religious life after the de- struction struction of the Temple and the discontinuance of its services.2 So much has been written upon and argued for the litur- gical use and purposes of the Psalter that, it is to be feared, 1 W.

  • The Revised Grail Psalter Paul Inwood
    The Revised Grail Psalter Paul Inwood In 1963, William Collins first published the Psalms, an English translation of the French Jerusalem Bible Psalter . That psalter had originally been produced by a team that included the Jesuit liturgist-musician Joseph Gelineau, and Gelineau’s psalm settings had been composed at the same time, in the 1950s. The idea behind the French translation was to produce a psalter which, as well as being faithful to the meaning of the Hebrew text, also reproduced the rhythmic characteristics of the Hebrew, a kind of sprung rhythm. The English translators attempted to do the same thing, with considerable success. As a result, Gelineau’s “pulsed” tones, designed for use with the French version, can be easily used with the English translation. This small paperback has never been out of print since its first publication, though the cover has changed. The translation had been produced under the auspices of the Ladies of the Grail (for many years based in Pinner, Middlesex, and now in Winchester) ― hence the name “Grail Psalms”. The community not only participated in the translation work but have benefitted from royalty income from the translation over the years. Hot on the heels of that paperback came another one: the “Singing Version”, masterminded by Dom A. Gregory Murray, in which he made a few minor alterations to the text which he thought improved the flow. Published by Fontana Books (then the paperback division of Collins) in 1966, this book also included in an appendix the melodies of all the Gelineau tones, with indications in the main text for which tone was used with which psalm.
