Description:

Arranged for cantor, SATB choir,  and assembly "We Must Glory In the Cross" was intended for use at the Liturgy of the Hours. However, it can also be employed during the season of Lent, in Holy Week, at the beginning of the Easter Triduum, and on Good Friday, as well as on the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross. The stanzas can be sung by a cantor and SATB choir,or  by a single cantor following the melody. Similarly, while the choral harmonies greatly add to the musical interest of the piece, the antiphon may be sung in unison each time by the assembly and cantor alone. 

For cantor or soloist.
