I think they should have set the key to C rather than D flat to t0 help pianists.

The excellent text was originally published with the EIFIONYDD hymn tune (still available at OCP) and is part of a collection, “We Contemplate the Mystery” with specific texts for each liturgy in Lent. EIFIONYDD is a simple tune, but not well known, hence the setting with BEACH SPRING, which everyone knows.
