Preface The Byzantine (Ruthenian) Catholic Church possesses as a rich inheritance a large collection of hymns to the Holy Trinity, to the Mother of God, and to the saints. These hymns are sung before and after services, and at pilgrimages and parish events. The melodies of these hymns were in turn used for settings of newly-composed hymns to other saints, and also for the Cherubic Hymn of the Divine Liturgy. Our 1978 Divine Liturgies book, edited by Father William Levkulic, included a basic collection of these hymns in Slavonic and English; later collections added hymns for the Great Fast and Holy Week, and hymns to the Mother of God. But to date, no comprehensive collection of our hymns with music, and including singable English translations, has been widely available. The commissions responsible for our 2006 service book, The Divine Liturgies of Our Holy Fathers John Chrysostom and Basil the Great, originally intended to produce an accompanying hymnal. The present collection is an attempt to bring that work to completion. A collaborative effort Although this volume was prepared by the Metropolitan Cantor Institute, the hymns themselves were published on the Internet as the work progressed, and made available to everyone in our church through the MCI website. Over fifty cantors contributed suggestions, corrections, and comments, and I would like to thank everyone who helped with this project. The organization of this collection The first half of this collection consists of hymns in parallel English and Slavonic (together with a few in Hungarian) from our traditional repertoire. These are divided into hymns to God, hymns to the Mother of God, and hymns for the liturgical year. Each hymn has been carefully examined, edited where necessary, and provided with music. The second half of the collection consists of hymns composed specifically for the Sundays and feast days of the liturgical year. Most of these are the work of the first director of the Metropolitan Cantor Institute, J. Michael Thompson, who based each hymn on the Scripture readings and liturgical texts associated with the Sunday or feast. This section also includes hymns by other distinguished cantors and choir directors in our church, such as Professor John Kahanick.

Sources The English texts in the first part of this volume are mainly taken from the collection of Father William Levkulic:

• The Divine Liturgy: A Book of Prayer (1978) • The Marian Hymnal (1984, with cantor Jerry Jumba) • Hymns of the Great Fast (not dated)

Each hymn has been checked against the original languages, as found in the Užhorod Pisennik (1913), the L’viv Pisnoslovets (1909), Duchovni Pisni (1969), and smaller collections of Christmas and Marian hymns. Note that some English versions are close translations of the original language versions, while others are free translations or even completely new texts. Where appropriate, a literal English translation (not for singing) is provided. In a few cases, hymns were omitted because of textual or theological problems; because they were framed in Latin rather than Eastern theology, or because they were little known and difficult to sing. For a complete list of hymns considered, see the following web page:

http://mci.archpitt.org/songs/Hymnal_Project.html In some cases, existing texts were altered to fix grammatical problems or bad English accents. A wide range of musical sources were consulted for the best match to the text, keeping in mind that some melodies are used for several different hymns, or even for liturgical pieces such as the Cherubic Hymn. In most cases, the “ordinary” and best-known melody commonly used in our church was chosen. Where several versions of a melody existed, the version that best suited the text and was most singable was selected. Use of “Western” melodies Many of the newly-composed hymns were set to existing traditional melodies, following a pattern widely used in our church in Europe. Some were initially set to well-known Western melodies, such as tunes for Christmas carols sung in our church, particularly in order to highlight the unity of the feasts that fall before and after Christmas and Theophany in our tradition. But the dependence on “traditional” melodies means that a large fraction of these hymns being set to a single melody, Pod tvoj pokrov (We hasten to your patronage).

In this draft hymnal, care has been taken not to rely too much on any one melody. Some well-known Christmas melodies, already sung in our church and included among the “traditional hymns” as Christmas carols, are used during the winter Pascha. Other melodies from the English singing tradition have also been used:

• Forest Green for feasts associated with the Incarnation • Kingsfold for feasts of apostles • Ellacombe for feasts of monastic saints

In many cases, cantors can choose to sing these to traditional Rusyn melodies such as Pod tvoj pokrov if desired. Sundays and feast days The second part of the collection includes a hymn (based on the day’s assigned Scripture readings or the liturgical texts of Vespers) for each Sunday of the liturgical year. There is also a hymn for for each major feast. (A major feast is one of Polyeleos rank or above.) The Hymnal Project page includes hymns for saints below Polyeleos rank; these will eventually be collected in a separate volume, but can be printed and used now if desired. The Great Fast, Holy Week, and Pascha In the past, hymns concerning the Passion of Christ were sung throughout the Great Fast, often in connection with daily Divine Liturgies, the Stations of the Cross, or other Lenten devotions. With the restoration of much of our own spiritual tradition for the Great Fast (concentrating on conversion of heart and prayer, fasting, almsgiving and watchfulness), it was not initially clear how these hymns should be employed. In this volume, we have selected those hymns most generally applicable during the Great Fast – hymns of repentance, and hymns that honor the Cross of our Lord without focusing entirely on the sufferings he endured. The hymn Preterpivyj (Having suffered) is included in this section, with a stipulation that while it can be sung after weekday services throughout the Great Fast, prostrations should not be made if it is sung after any service at which Holy Communion is distributed.

Other hymns closely connected with the Passion are assigned to Holy Week, coming after the hymns for Palm Sunday. In some cases, the Holy Week hymns have many more verses in Slavonic than have been put into English; these additional verses recount the entire story of the Passion, which is why when singing the English versions, we often hear only about the betrayal of Judas, and the rest of the events of Holy Week are omitted. After the Holy Week hymns, the hymnal includes additional hymns for Pascha (Easter). This has been a problem for our singing repertoire, and we continue to look for additions. (European hymns often include more Paschal hymns and hymns to “God the creator” than we have to date in English.) What is NOT in this hymnal In general, liturgical hymns from Vespers, Matins, and other services are not included in this volume, even though they were included in some previous collections. Some of these hymns are included now in the back of our Divine Liturgies book. Others, such as the Polyeleos (“Praise the name of the Lord”), “By the rivers of Babylon”, the Great Doxology, and the Magnificat (“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord”), have very specific usages in our liturgy to mark particular points in the liturgical cycle. Singing them as ad libitum music weakens their liturgical role. Choral versions In the course of assembling this hymnal, many cantors and choir directors have asked for 3-part or 4-part arrangements for singing by a choir or congregation. It is my intent to provide a book (mostly likely having a larger page size) with such arrangements once the Music Commission has conducted their review of the hymnal and made any changes they feel necessary. Other considerations In general, the title of each hymn consists of its first words (enough to be recognizable) or, for newly-composed hymns, the Sunday or feast to which the hymn applies. The final hymnal will include an index of first lines at the back. Tempo / metronome markings have not been included, since the appropriate tempo for a hymn can vary widely, based on a variety of factors including the acoustics of the space in which singing takes place.

Pronunciation of Slavonic

The Church Slavonic texts in the following pages are presented in a variation of the Latin alphabet used with English, rather than in the original Cyrillic alphabet. Certain additional symbols are added to indicate the correct pronunciation. The system used here is one commonly employed in our prayer books. In Church Slavonic, each letter has a uniform sound in whatever word it is found. The following letters vary in pronunciation from their equivalent in the English language:

VOWELS

A as in fAther (approx.)

E as in bEt

I as in bIt

O as in mOre

U as in mOOn

Y as in bUt

CONSONANTS

C as ts in wits

Č as ch in Church

CH as ch in loch

D’ as di in radiant

J as y in yet

L’ as lli in brilliant

Ň as ni in union

R is always trilled

Š as sh in show

T’ as ti in celestial

V’ as vi in Savior

Ž as s in pleasure

Note: d’, l’, ň, t’, and v’ indicate that the given consonant is followed by the sound as “y” as in yellow, as shown in the examples above. (D’ and T’ are sometimes written Ď and Ť.) Accented vowels are marked in order to assist in pronunciation, but may not be strongly accented when sung.

14. When your time had come, into heaven's realm you were taken by the Lord. You were glorified with angelic hosts, golden Vessel of the Word.

15. You were made the Queen, and received a crown; earth and heaven bow to you. From your loving heart grace and favor flowed to all those who honor you.

NATIVITY

Hungarian text and melody: traditional

92

Pronunciation of Hungarian From the time of its founding our church in the United States included Christians who spoke Hungarian (also called Magyar), Serbo-Croatian, and Romanian as well as Rusyn and Ukrainian. Of these other groups, the Hungarians were the most numerous, and several of our parishes sang the Liturgy and spiritual hymns in Hungarian until late in the 20th century. Therefore, some of the best-known spiritual songs in our Hungarian tradition are included here. The Hungarian or Magyar language has its own spelling and pronunciation rules which must be learned before singing in this language. If in doubt, please obtain the assistance of a native speaker before singing Hungarian in church!

VOWELS

Where two letters are given, the second is the same as the first but held longer.

a as in rAW

i, í as in sEE

o, ó as in OH (sometimes AW)

ö, ő like German ö

Boh predv’ičnyj narodilsja

NATIVITY

God eternal is born tonight.He came down from aboveTo save us with his loveAnd he rejoiced.

When Christ was born of the Virgin,A star stood where the Son,And Mother, the most pure,Were sheltered that night.

He was born in Bethlehem,Our Christ, Our Messiah,The Lord of creationwas born here for us.

You three wise men, whither go you?We go to Bethlehem,Bearing peaceful greetings,We shall then return.

The tidings came through an angel,Shepherds knew, then the KingsThe watchers of the skiesThen all creation.

Returning, a new way they chose;The malicious Herod,The evil wicked one,They wished to avoid.

Ring out the song: “Glory to God!”Honor to the son of God,Honor to our Lord,And homage to him.

Slavonic text and melody: Prof. George I. KacanEnglish: Fr. Michael Schudio

Have mercy on me, O my God(Selected verses from Psalm 50)

GREAT FAST

For I acknowledge my offense,my sin is before me.* (see music below)

Against you I sinned and have doneevil in your sight.

Cleanse me of my sins with hyssopthat I may be made pure.Wash me and I shall be whiterthan new-fallen snow.

Let me hear the sounds of gladness;then shall my bones rejoice.Turn away your face from my sins,blot out all my guilt.

Give me a clean heart, O my God;renew my spirit.*Cast me not out from your presence,fill me with your life.

Free me from blood guilt, O my God;you are my saving God.Then shall my tongue speak out in joyof your justice great.

O Lord, open my mouth and lips;your praise I shall proclaim.*A heart contrite with humblenessyou will not reject.

*

Slavonic text: traditional; English text, unknown translatorMelody: traditional

In some parishes, it is customary to sing this hymn three times at the end of weekday services during the Great Fast, with a prostration each time. (Note that after services at which Holy Communion has been received, no prostrations are made.)
