ATTACHED is a simple Resp. Psalm for the Annunciation. Some will disagree with the accentuation of 1-2 of the words, but it can be changed easily.

By the way, is this a different response than the 2nd Sunday in Ordinary time Year A & B or is it the same?
R. (8a and 9a) Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will. Sacrifice or oblation you wished not, but ears open to obedience you gave me. Holocausts or sin-offerings you sought not; then said I, "Behold I come." R. Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will. "In the written scroll it is prescribed for me, To do your will, O my God, is my delight, and your law is within my heart!" R. Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will. I announced your justice in the vast assembly; I did not restrain my lips, as you, O Lord, know. R. Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will. Your justice I kept not hid within my heart; your faithfulness and your salvation I have spoken of; I have made no secret of your kindness and your truth in the vast assembly. R. Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Are you referring to the wording of the response "Here am I" vs "Here I am"? Evidently it was been changed from the former to the latter at some point.
