Thanks and Praise Hymnal To Be Launched in St Patrick’s Cathedral

The Church of Ireland’s new hymnal supplement, ‘Thanks and Praise’, will be launched in St Patrick’s Cathedral, Dublin, on Friday September 11 at 6.30 pm. The new supplement contains some 200 hymns, songs and liturgical settings reflecting the best of church music to emerge since the compilation of the most recent edition of the Church Hymnal.

The selection, which is authorised by the General Synod, includes many hymns and songs, plus new settings for the Eucharist, short songs and chants – alleluias, kyries and blessings – a number of items in the Irish language, music from the world church and some completely new compositions and arrangements.

Two years in preparation, the selection has been overseen by a team of parish and cathedral musicians and clergy and has been tested in local parishes.

The Church is keen to welcome all those who participated in the project to the service and also to a reception afterwards. If you plan to attend, please email Mrs Janet Maxwell  (janet.maxwell@rcbdub.org) to confirm as this will help with planning.
