    We have a monthly (weekday) Mass for men. I am looking for something distinctly masculine where barely a tenor would feel comfortable. Where's the manly crusader chant from the Holy Sepulcre? Well, seriously, we need a simple Mass and there are many many options. Please advise and Thanks!

    Who are the singers? A choir or the congregation? How many are there?

    Not a direct response, but wouldn't a Vespers or Compline (sorry.. Evening or Night Prayer) be a more appropriate prayer form for this sort of gathering?

    Calling Cardinal Bartolucci, Eminence Bartolucci?

    Seriously, go nosing about internet or collegiate libraries for some Eastern (Byzantine/Orthodox) charts for men that aren't in Cyrillic/Russian/Armenian/Greek texts. Don't be to sure that your local SPEBSQUA (Barbershop) organization doesn't have some decent hymn charts for LTBBs voicing as well.

    Oh, also:
    Christus Vincit

    It does not get more manly.

    Here is a hymn: "To Jesus Christ our Sovereign King".

    Anything that speaks of the Lord's Kingship.
