Top Catholic Songs – share, learn, promote

I found this of great interest in your article about the hymn O Jesus Christ, Remember:

"The Black List as it became known was an attempt by the Society to condemn as many of the popular Catholic hymnals of the day in favor of its own St. Gregory and Choir Book. Since the St. Basil’s Hymnal was by far the most dominant hymnal across the United States, it received the harshest criticism and was deemed objectionable, so far as its liturgical, literary and artistic value is concerned, should not be tolerated in any school or church."

I have hard copies of both St. Basil's Hymnal and the the St. Gregory Hymnal. I had no idea of the intrigue associated with them. 

Thanks for researching O Jesus Christ, Remember. The AURELIA tune by Samuel Wesley is very familiar to me, notably in the hymn The Church's One Foundation.
