Note: See GIRM n. 86 and n. 88 regarding the song after Communion. The music document Sing To The
Lord: Music in Divine Worship (2007)says that the song after Communion should focus the assembly on
the mystery of the Holy Communion in which it participates, and it should never draw undue attention to
the choir or other musicians. The congregation may stand for the song after communion if the nature of
the music seems to call for it. Care should be taken that the Mass does not become unduly long at this
point in the celebration.
