Hymns for the 3rd Sunday of Easter, Year C (4 May 2025) - Catholic lectionary

A selection of hymns and songs, based on themes from the Roman Catholic lectionary for the  3rd Sunday of Easter, Year C.

Most are free-to-use (ie public domain or copyright-free) meaning the words can be copied and sung to at least one tune with no concerns about copyright or performance licensing. Many of these hymns are old/traditional - but where possible a variety of styles / genres are included.  A small selection of hymns that are still copyright may be included, where they are particularly relevant to the theme.

Suggestions about other free-to-use hymns that could be included are welcome: leave a message in the Comments box near the bottom of the page.

In some years, this day falls on or close to the feast of St Joseph the Worker, and the beginning of the month of May, which is traditionally a time of devotion to Mary.
