After The Exaltation of the Cross come the final weeks of ordinary time, which end on the 34th Sunday when we celebrate the feast of Christ the King. In the third and final part of Year C (weeks 25 – 34), we continue in Luke’s Gospel from the parable of the unjust steward {Luke 16:1-13} to the final moments of Jesus on the cross {Luke 23:35-43}.
The responsorial psalms deepen our understanding of the Word as we continue in the cycle of the Lectionary.
Here are accessible, contemporary settings for the third and final part of Year C – each one includes a free melody line PDF and MP3 audio: (click links below)

Please support our Psalm Re-write Project
With the introduction of the new Lectionary in Advent 2024, the Catholic Church across England, Wales and Scotland now uses the Abbey Psalms & Canticles in the Mass, instead of the long-familiar Grail translation.
We are in the midst of the arduous task of revising or rewriting our entire catalogue of Responsorial Psalms to accord with this new translation.
If you, your school, or your parish have found value in this resource over the years, we would be grateful for any financial support you are able to give to help us fund this work, so that we can continue to offer these psalms settings as a gift to the Church.
