Hymnal for Catholic Students

In response to the question, What should every Catholic child learn as part of their developing worship experience? the publishers set out to create a liturgy program for children that will ultimately prepare them to become adult members of the faith community. Used with the leader's guide published by Liturgy Training Publications, Hymnal for Catholic Students will help parishes graduate young adults who are well prepared to step into the adult worshiping community. They will know the Mass, be acquainted with morning and evening prayer forms, know a significant repertoire of classical and folk-style hymnody common to a majority of adult Catholics, know what a psalm is, know the rhythm of the liturgical year, and know appropriate congregational responses. This entire hymnal has been recorded on a set of seven cassettes for teaching purposes. Some of the songs have also been recorded on two cassettes for listening, Let the Children Sing, volumes 1 & 2.
