Introduction

Enclosed in this small booklet are a few examples of psalm antiphons and other worship resources

that have been used in Kramer Chapel on the campus of Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort

Wayne. Permission is granted to use these resources in congregations of The Lutheran Church—

Missouri Synod and beyond.

These resources can be sung by a variety of forces—choirs small or large, and even individual

voices—and do not require extensive musical training. Everything here can be found on the

Seminary’s website (https://www.ctsfw.edu/resources/worship), including the PDF files for the three

psalm antiphons that can be sung by the congregation. We encourage you to visit the site regularly

as we continue to add resources.

The examples of psalm antiphons are self-explanatory. The antiphon is sung by choir or cantor

before and after the psalm, at a minimum, using the suggested psalm tone from Lutheran Service

Book for the psalm verses. Suggestions are also provided in some cases for singing the antiphon at

one or more points within the psalm. In each case, following the repetition of the antiphon, it is the

choir or cantor who continues with the next verse of the psalm. Note that in several cases the

congregation can participate in singing the antiphon. PDF files for these psalms are available on the

worship resource webpage.

Lutheran Service Book has provided several different options for singing the Alleluia and Verse in

the Divine Service (just prior to the Gospel reading) that allows one to sing the “proper” Verses that

are appointed for each Sunday of the year. Three ways of doing this are noted here.

1. A simple method using the alleluia refrain in Setting Three (LSB 190) and Setting Four (LSB 205)

is explained in the LSB Accompaniment to the Liturgy volume used by church organists on pp.

187–201. Please note that permission is given to reproduce those pages for use by choir or cantor.

2. LSB 951 provides a simple Alleluia from the Taizé community. See pp. 20–21 in this resource for

two examples of how to utilize this refrain. The first follows the procedure outlined in LSB of

singing the entire Verse on one pitch. The second provides a double tone that works well

especially for longer Verses that can be divided into four sections.

3. LSB 952 is sometimes referred to as the Celtic Alleluia. No provision is provided in LSB for

singing the proper Verse with this refrain. However, on p. 22 of this resource (with the

accompaniment on p. 23) a simple formula is provided with the Verses for the Baptism of Our

Lord, the Transfiguration of Our Lord, and the Day of Pentecost. As one can see from these

examples, the melodic formula for the Verse can be altered to fit many texts, though it must be

done with care. This formula does not work, however, for extremely short Verses.

Please note that one can find the texts for all of the Verses for both the three- and one-year

lectionaries at the back of the liturgy accompaniment volume (pp. 187–201).

We have included several examples of simple hymn settings that can be sung in alternation with the

congregation. These settings could also be used for other hymns that use the same tune, though obviously one would have to write in the text from that hymn.

Finally, we invite you to join the seminary community by visiting us sometime. And when you can’t,

you can still experience the rich worship life in Kramer Chapel by watching our services online at https://www.ctsfw.edu/daily-chapel/.
