According to Brian Michael Page, there's a favorite hymns meme making the rounds. I'm going to dodge that one because 1) there are just too many good hymns and 2) when I mention some of them, I end up being told "Hey, that's not a hymn! that's a _______!"
So, as I've been cruising around the town on my daily constitutionals, I seem to have reverted to my prior habit, back in my able-bodied days, of singing "psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs" --- also known as Catholic praise choruses ---- at the bus stop. Or, nowadays, while tooling down the sidewalk on Maxima. Here's the ones I've caught myself singing in the streets:
Gloria, laus, et honor (the 12th century polyphonic one that sounds like sycopated dance music)
Laudate, laudate Dominum (by Walker?)
Laudamus Te (Jeffrey Honore)
Praise God in His holy Dwelling (Psalm 150, Vermulst)
I Know that my Redeemer lives (and on that last day I will rise again.... by Robert Fabing)
To Jesus Christ, Our Sovereign King
O filii et filiae.
Anyone have their own streetcorner praise favorites?
