Part of the longer hymn Pange lingua by Venantius Fortunatus (c.540-c.600), the Crux fidelis features in the Adoration of the Cross during the solemn liturgical actions of Good Friday, and at Lauds during Passiontide. The reverence and awe of the words resonate in the poised strophes and silences of Ronald Corp's new setting for SATB, a memorable addition to the repertoire of music for times of penitence, and to the surprisingly small corpus of interpretations, including those by Lennox Berkeley, Adrian Willaert, John Dunstable, and King John IV of Portugal (attributed), of this text in particular.

Many congregations hold Good Friday as a sacred day of gathering in prayer, focusing on the cross in anticipation of the Resurrection. Chris de Silva’s “Faithful Cross” is a setting of a lengthy, ancient hymn (“Crux fidelis”) that celebrates the cross with rich symbolism and poetry. Two refrains are included for the assembly, and a simple chant for The Showing of the Holy Cross (“Behold the wood of the Cross...”) is also provided. “Faithful Cross” does not have to be restricted to use only on Good Friday, it can be part of the Palm Sunday liturgy and for feast days such as the Exaltation of the Holy Cross (September 14).

This contemporary Stations of the Cross, written by theologian and storyteller John Shea, is designed for a leader and congregation. While in keeping with the traditional devotion, it also contains aspects of liturgical drama. At each station a character presents a monologue that connects the passion of Christ with contemporary forms of suffering, followed by a brief reflection by the leader, a period of silence, and a short sung response‚Äîa total time of forty-five to fifty-five minutes for the whole service. Through their participation in the fourteen stations, the leader, speakers, and assembly enter more deeply into the passion of Christ and into the mystery of their own suffering. The 8.5 x 11 leader/accompaniment edition is three-hole punched to fit in a ceremonial binder, and contains the complete text of the service as well as accompaniment versions of Steve Warner‚ ‚Crux Fidelis‚ and Kevin Keil and Alan Hommerding‚ ‚Stations of the Cross.‚ The coordinating people's edition (WLP# 008240) contains the reflection responses and assembly versions of these same pieces.
