Regina Caeli Laetare (“Be joyful, Mary, heavenly Queen”)
“Regina Caeli” was initially a Christmas hymn, but over the centuries it became an Easter hymn; at this point, both text and tune should only be used during Eastertide.

Stille Nacht (“Silent Night, Holy Night”)
This German text was composed by Fr. Josef Mohr, a Catholic priest who died in 1848. He should not be confused with a Jesuit priest, Fr. Josef Hermann Mohr (d. 1892), who published many German hymnals. The English translation (“Silent Night”) was composed by John Freeman Young.
