Shepherd Hymn for Year for Priests
-
Our Schola is organizing the music for a Gregorian Novus Ordo Mass celebrating the end of the Year for Priests, to take place on the solemnity of SS. Peter and Paul. For the processional we would like to sing a traditional hymn in English that salutes our priests. We would therefor like to use a hymn with a "Shepherd" theme, such as "The King of Love My Shepherd Is". Any other suggestions for this hymn. Thanks much, Robert

How about SHEPHERD OF SOULS (text by James Montgomery and "anon.") to the tune ST AGNES (John B Dykes)? Find it online (should be public domain), or in THE HYMNAL 1940 or THE HYMNAL 1982 (Episcopal).
