The katapi Psalter. The Common Worship Psalter with pointing is based upon the RSCM Common Worship Psalter with chants. The chants are as numbered in the RSCM Chant Book. The MP3 files are as listed at Ton Meijer/s anglican chant website HERE. (this page prepared for katapi by paul ingram 2017.)

¶ When singing a psalm, the word 'blessed' is to be pronounced as two syllables: 'bless - ed'. Where spelled 'blest', the word is pronounced as one syllable.

¶ A double forward slash // marks the MP3-point in each psalm verse where, traditionally, a pause is observed.

¶ A single forward slash / marks a bar-line of the chant. A dot &MP3dot; indicates the MP3 point of the bar, and the chord changes after the dot. Chord changes in words of more than one syllable are indicated by a dash.

¶ For those traditions which omit the word 'Alleluia' during penitential seasons, we have provided an alternative: 'Praise the Lord'.

¶ A verse printed in bold should be sung in unison.

¶ Each psalm or group of psalms may end with

Glory to the Father and / to the / Son //
and / to the / Holy / Spirit;

as it was in the be/ginning is / now //
and shall be for / ever. / A- /men.

1 Christ our passover is / sacrificed / for us: //
therefore / let us / keep the / feast;

2 Not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of / malice and / wickedness: //
but with the unleavened bread of sin/ceri/ty and / truth. (1 Corinthians 5.7b, 8)

3 Christ being raised from the dead / dieth no / more: //
death hath no / more do/minion / over him.

4 For in that he died, he died unto / sin / once: //
but in that he liveth, he / liveth / unto / God.

5 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed / unto / sin: //
but alive unto God, through / Jesus / Christ our / Lord. (Romans 6.9-11)

6 Christ is / risen from the / dead: //
and become the / first-fruits of / them that / slept.

7 For since by / man came / death: //
by man came also the resur/rection / of the / dead.

8 For as in Adam / all / die: //
even so in Christ shall / all be / made a/live. (1 Corinthians 15.20-22)

Glory be to the Father, and / to the / Son: //
and / to the / Holy / Ghost;

as it was in the beginning, is now, and / ever / shall be: //
world without / end. / A/men.

1 Christ our passover has been / sacrificed / for us: //
so let us / cele/brate the / feast,

2 not with the old leaven of cor/ruption and / wickedness: //
but with the unleavened / bread of sin/cerity and / truth. (1 Corinthians 5.7b, 8)

3 Christ once raised from the dead / dies no / more: //
death has / no more do/minion / over him.

4 In dying he died to sin / once for / all: //
in / living he / lives to / God.

5 See yourselves therefore as / dead to / sin: //
and alive to God in / Jesus / Christ our / Lord. (Romans 6.9-11)

6 Christ has been raised / from the / dead: // [better: ..... / raised &MP3dot; from the / dead: // ]
the / first fruits of / those who / sleep.

7 For as by / man came / death: //
by man has come also the resur/rection / of the / dead;

8 for as in / Adam all / die: //
even so in Christ shall / all be / made a/live. (1 Corinthians 15.20-22)

Glory to the Father and / to the / Son //
and / to the / Holy / Spirit;

as it was in the be/ginning is / now //

1 Blessed be the Lord / God of / Israel //
for he hath / visited, &MP3dot; and re/deemed his /people;

2 And hath raised up a mighty sal/vation / for us //
in the / house of his / servant / David;

3 As he spake by the mouth of his / holy / Prophets //
which have been / since the / world be/gan;

4 That we should be saved / from our / enemies //
and from the / hands of / all that / hate us;

5 To perform the mercy promised / to our / forefathers //
and to re/member his / holy / covenant;

6 To per/form the oath which he sware to our / fore&MP3dot;father / Abraham //
that / he would / give / us,

7 That we being delivered out of the / hand of our / enemies //
might / serve him with/out / fear,

8 In holiness and / righteousness be/fore him //
all the / days of / our / life.

9 And thou, child, shalt be called the / Prophet / of the / Highest //
for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord / to pre/pare his / ways;

10 To give knowledge of salvation / unto his / people //
for the re/mission / of their / sins;

11 Through the tender mercy / of our / God //
whereby the dayspring / from on / high hath / visited us;

12 To give light to them that sit in darkness, and in the / shadow of / death //.
and to guide our feet / into the / way of / peace.

Glory be to the Father, and / to the / Son //
and / to the / Holy / Ghost;

as it was in the beginning, is now, and / ever / shall be //
world without / end. / A/men.

1 Blessed be the Lord the / God of / Israel, //
who has come to his / people and / set them / free.

2 He has raised up for us a / mighty / Saviour, //
born of the / house of his / servant / David.

3 Through his holy prophets God / promised of / old //
to save us from our enemies, from the / hands of / all that / hate us,

4 To show mercy / to our / ancestors, //
and to re/ member his / holy / covenant.

5 This was the oath God swore to our / father / Abraham: //
to set us / free &MP3dot; from the / hands of our / enemies,

6 Free to worship him / without / fear, //
holy and righteous in his sight / all the / days of our / life.

7 And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the / Most / High, //
for you will go before the / Lord &MP3dot; to pre/pare his / way,

8 To give his people knowledge / of sal/vation // [better: ..... / knowledge &MP3dot; of sal/vation // ]
by the for/giveness of / all their / sins.

9 In the tender compassion / of our / God //
the dawn from on / high shall / break up/on us,

10 To shine on those who dwell in darkness and the / shadow of / death, //
and to guide our feet / into the / way of / peace.

Glory to the Father and / to the / Son //
and / to the / Holy / Spirit;

as it was in the be/ginning is / now //
