Line-Up for 10 JUNE: EXTERNAL SOLEMNITY OF THE SACRED HEART (plus 08 June Sacred Heart Ordinary Form)

There has been some back-and-forth on this, but apparently the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart does warrant "External" treatment, that is, it can be celebrated on the Sunday. For a good explanation, see this article External Solemnities at New Liturgical Movement [LINK].

Of course, in the Ordinary Form, Sacred Heart is always the Friday after the Second Sunday after Pentecost, so 06:30 Mass on Friday 08 June will have chanted Propers and a hymn.

Sunday 10 June (music sheet order)
  • [Asperges Me]
  • MASS PROPERS: SACRED HEART [LINK
    • Introit: Cogitationes Cordis [Mass Propers]
  • Kyrie VIII De Angelis
  • Gloria VIII De Angelis
    • Gradual: Dulcis et Rectus [Mass Propers]
    • Alleluia: Tollite Jugum [Mass Propers]
  • Credo III 
    • Offertory: Improperium Exspectavit [Mass Propers]
  • HYMN: COR JESU AMANTISSIMUM [LINK
  • Sanctus VIII De Angelis
  • Agnus Dei VIII De Angelis
    • Communio: Unus Militum [Mass Propers]
  • Antiphona ad S. Michaelem Archangelem (no Alleluia)
Friday 08 June 06:30 Mass
  • SOLEMNITY OF THE SACRED HEART  (Ordinary Form) [LINK]
PREVIEW of Sunday 17 June
  • MASS PROPERS: FOURTH SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST [LINK]
  • HYMN: COR JESU AMANTISSIMUM [LINK]
    • June being the Month of the Sacred Heart, we will continue with this hymn for this week, and perphaps the next week although 24 June is the Solemnity of the Birth of John the Baptist, which preempts the Sunday and I may find some hymn more specific to the day.
