A new English-language setting of the Christmas Proclamation
December 22, 2009 by — 3 comments.
May be found here (PDF). It uses the English text approved for liturgical use by the USCCB, but unlike the setting supplied by them, this melody is adapted from that employed with the original Latin text.
