Composed by Gary Penkala. Text: Lectionary. Gospel Acclamation for SATB. Liturgy. Octavo. Published by CanticaNOVA Publications (C5.3055).

In our continuing effort to offer unique ways of enhancing your liturgy with music, we present this choral setting of a gospel verse. Although originally written for an ordination, it can also be used for some Sundays in Ordinary Time. The verse is built on an ostinato pattern sung by the basses, over which the counterpoint in the soprano, alto, and tenor parts unfold the text "I call you friends, says the Lord..." using the Victory melody. An obligato C-instrument (flute or violin) plays a high cantus firmus of the chant Ubi caritas in augmented notes. The congregation introduces and concludes this verse by singing the familiar "Alleluia" refrain to the hymn tune Victory.
