    • Immaculate Mary, Salve Regina, and Holy God we Praise Thy Name to name a few. I know there are more out there but that's all I can think of for now.

    Please ignore ALL of my posts. I was naive during my time posting on this forum and didn’t know any better. I retract and deeply regret any and all uncharitable or erroneous statements I ever made here.

    Grosser Gott appears in a lot of Protestant hymnals.

    The only hymns of Catholic origin that Protestants do not use are the Marian hymns.

    I don't think that there is a single hymnal with 4-part setting that includes only Catholic hymns.

    Also interesting to note that a lot of old German hymns (the ones not based on secular songs) are actually based on pre-Reformation tunes.

    • They don't have a pipe organ, but I like these hymns.  All of their CDs are good, but that one is my favorite and many (most?) of their recordings have orchestra accompaniment.

    Holy God We Praise Thy Name is in the Episcopal, Lutheran, and Methodist hymnals.

    Nope.  Protestants sing that too, but in English.
