For Lent this year we will again use “Be With Me, Lord” as a seasonal psalm. We also decided to use “Oh God Why Are You Silent” all through Lent as an offertory. That said, not everything will be written by Marty Haugen.
Although we won’t change the mass parts until Easter Vigil, staying with the Mass of St Francis for now, we will use the Lenten Gospel Acclamation from Mason’s Mass of Glory and Praise.
