The table below lists available Psalm settings appointed for the Principal Service of the Revised Common Lectionary (RCL) three-year cycle used in Church of England Common Worship services. Settings are constantly being written to expand coverage of the whole cycle, but particularly of the period from Advent through to Pentecost. See also the numerical index.
Where possible, a congregational version is specified, usually responsorial. Entries in parentheses (thus) are better suited to presentation by choir or music-group.
