A quick question: At a Novus Ordo Mass, how would one use the Mode VIII Alleluia in conjunction with the Responsorial Psalm on Easter? Remember, this is the 3-verse Gospel Acclamation that follows the Epistle. Our Missalette in the pews uses the 'O Sons and Daughters' Alleluia tune. I would love to pull out the Mode VIII and put that in the programs I am creating. How should we sing the four-line verses that immediately follow? Definitely open to suggestions.
