If you are like me there are a lot of hymns in the Office for which you do not know the melody.

I recently ran across a youtube page which has music for (almost) every hymn in the office:

Now these hymns are drawn from all over and they don't all perfectly match the words we have but once you know the tune you can sing the hymn using the words from the Breviary. I have already learned a couple new ones, just by singing along with the hymns on this page (just please don't ask me to demonstrate)!

"For he who sings praise, does not only praise, but also praises  joyously; he who sings praise, is not only singing, but also loving Him  whom he is singing about/to/for." St. Augustine of Hippo, Enarratio in Psalmum 72
