| Psalm | Father, into your hands (Martin Foster) |
| Gospel Acclamation | Christus factus est (Felice Anerio c. 1560-1614) |
| Veneration of the Cross | This is the wood of the cross (Missal tone) There is a green hill far away The Reproaches (T.L. de Victoria, 1548-1611) & plainchant Jesus, remember me (Taizé) |
| Communion | Ave Verum Corpus (William Byrd, c. 1540-1623) Soul of my Saviour |
Martin Foster’s psalm setting combines an ostinato refrain (alternating the words of the psalm response, and a hummed accompaniment to the cantor) with a cantor singing the psalm verses. We had cantors too in the Reproaches, two voices providing the chant verses in between repetitions of Victoria’s Popule Meus and Agios o Theos; and at the start of Jesus, remember me, a lone voice announcing the plaintive plea, before the whole assembly made it into collective prayer.
