Hymn Compositions for Consideration in New Hymnal
The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) upon the recommendation of the Episcopal Commission for Liturgy and the Sacraments (ECLS) has approved the publication of a new Hymnal to replace Catholic Book of Worship III published in 1994. The third edition of the Roman Missal and the adoption of the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) translation of the Scriptures in the Canadian edition of the Lectionary have rendered much of the material in the CBW III out of date.
A National Hymnal Committee has been appointed to work on the content and structure of the new Hymnal.
New hymn compositions and acclamations are being sought. All music being considered for the Hymnal must meet the criteria established by the Bishops of Canada with the assistance of the National Council for Liturgical Music (NCLM):
Submissions should preferably be made by e-mail in PDF Format to nlo@cccb.ca
If that is not possible, they may be mailed:
