Are there existing chant settings or proper tones for the English-language prayers of the Good Friday liturgy? We have a singing deacon and a singing celebrant for the whole week!
Yes, they are in the appendix to the sacramentary. The deacon's invitations are sung to the simple preface tone, and the priest's prayers are sung to the simple collect tone.
