The beginning of September is when change Mass parts for Ordinary Time=- Autumn. It is usually staggered over a few weeks. Today we moved back to Mass of Creation which usually sees us through until the Baptism of the Lord. The GLoria was new last year but seemed to be sung well. Space permitting it would be interesting to put the verses on the leaflet to see if all would join in — perhaps just the last verse.
O praise the Lord seemed neither one thing or the other - there was neither harmonic nor melodic tension to make the repetition of the short phrase rewarding. Though the sung repetition of the words after each phrase of the verse was interesting it did not blossom into a longer refrain which may have been needed.
