Holy, Holy, Holy (Let me hear you say)

"Holy, Holy, Holy (Let me hear you say)" brings a vibrant, interactive energy to the Sanctus. Written in solfa notation for four-part harmony, this setting takes the traditional words of the Eucharistic acclamation and infuses them with a lively, rhythmic drive. The addition of the phrase "Let me hear you say" acts as a joyful prompt, inviting the congregation and choir alike to lift their voices in the repeating "Hosanna" chorus.

In the choir loft, this piece shines during the Eucharistic Prayer. The repetition of "Hosanna" builds a wonderful momentum, creating a sense of genuine celebration right after the Preface. The final section, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord," grounds the lively rhythm back into the solemnity of the Mass, ending with a unified declaration of praise. It is a setting that encourages full, active participation from everyone in the pews.
