Other settings of traditional texts, with instrumental accompaniment, include:
Panis Angelicus; Hail Mary; Help Me Lord (Domine non sum Dignus); Ave Verum.
For the annual Remembrance Sunday he has provided a setting of Eternal Rest, for solo voice with simple drumbeat accompaniment.
The lyrics of one hymn, ‘Help me Listen, Help me See’, have been included in the Archdiocesan publication for use in Spiritual Retreats.
