Hymns for the 13th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year C (26 June 2022) - Catholic lectionary

A selection of hymn and song suggestions, based on themes from the Roman Catholic lectionary for the thirteenth Sunday of Ordinary time, Year C.

Most are free-to-use (ie public domain or copyright-free) meaning the words can be copied and sung to at least one tune with no concerns about copyright or performance licensing.  Many such hymns are old/traditional - but where possible a variety of styles / genres are included.

A small selection of hymns which are, or may be, still copyright are also included where they are a particularly good for for the theme(s).

Suggestions about other free-to-use hymns that could be included are welcome: leave a message in the Comments box near the bottom of the page.

Seasonal note

When the the Solemnity of St Peter and Paul (29 June) is on a Sunday, its Mass is used instead.   Also, bishops in some countries choose to observe the feast on the nearest Sunday.



Readings

First: I Kings 19:16, 19-21 - Elijah calls Elisha to follow him - and allows Elisha to first farewell his family.

Psalm:  15 - It is you who are my portion and cup / Preserve me, God I take refuge in you / I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel / And so my heart rejoices / You will show me the path of life.

Second: Galatians 5:1, 13-18 - You were called to liberty, but take care to serve one another in works of love.  The whole commandment is summarised as "Love your neighbour as yourself".

  2. 'Summons' in tune to Kelving Grove would be a good one.
