MERBECKE John, d.1585 [ Marbeck, Marbecke]
Text incipit / Title (47)
A virgin and mother
Ave Dei patris filia
Be merciful, after thy power
Be you followers of God
Behold, thou art made whole
Burial Responses
Charge them which are rich
Christ Jesus is made of God
Communion, K, G, Cr, Sa, Ag, Our Father, Sursum Corda
Domine Jesu Christe
For Communion when there is a burial: Introit Like as the hart, K, Sa, Ag
God is not unrighteous
Godliness is great riches
Happy are those servants
He that hath my commandments
He that hath pity upon the poor
He which soweth little
I am the resurrection
I am well pleased that the Lord hath heard
I heard a voice from heaven
If any man will follow me
If God be on our side
If we have sown unto you spiritual things
If ye shall bide in me
If ye shall continue in my word
In the midst of life
Introit: Blessed is the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly
Know ye not ye are the temple
Lay not up for yourselves
Let him that is taught the word
Let your light so shine
Man that is born of a woman
Mass: Per arma justitiae, extracts a opening, b Pleni sunt caeli, c Benedictus qui venit
Matins (Our Father, Preces, V, T, Bs (2 settings), Responses)
Not everyone that saith unto me
Our Father
Praised be the Lord God of Israel
The hour cometh
The night is passed
The servant that knoweth his master's will
We brought nothing into this world
Whatsoever ye would that men should do
Who goeth a warfare at any time
Who shall lay anything to the charge
Whoso hath this world's good
Ye are dearly bought
Zache stood forth
