This is a prayer for peace by Jesse Manibusan and Sarah Hart that has been added to Breaking Bread for 2022. It also has Spanish lyrics translated by Ivan Diaz and Juan J. Sosa.
This is singable as well as peaceful. There is an interlude before the third verse if you want to use it.
The sheet music can be purchased at OCP where the text is in their preview.
If you listen as far as the interlude you get to hear BIAB deftly soloing over the chord progression.

Steve Angrisano has set a text by James Quinn SJ for the two verses and added a short refrain of his own. I can see this as a song for Gifts or Eucharist. There is a countermelody in the refrain that isn’t essential but sounds fine.
The sheet music can be purchased at OCP and the text is in their preview.
I managed to keep it restrained and tasteful for a change in BIAB.
This is a song of praise by Bob Moore that has been added to Breaking Bread for 2022. The text draws at least some of its inspiration from Psalm 34. The tune in the verse goes up to Eb so I’d be bringing it down to the key of C. There seems to be a preference for restful praise songs these days.
The sheet music can be purchased at OCP where the text is in their preview.
Sarah Hart wrote this song that is most suitable for the Preparation of the Gifts. It is long enough to cover the liturgical action well and is simply a beautiful hymn.
I don’t mind it being in Db as a guitarist, because the capo is going straight on, but beginning keyboard players might curse five flats.
Some of the lyrics are in OCP’s blog posting and the rest are in the preview of the sheet music. You can purchase the sheet music from OCP.
I had fun on BIAB with this one.
