Kathy (if I make bold to call her that) has recently published the latest version of her Advent calendar of the daily introit metricalized at The Chant Cafe:

I will be using these with my Anglicans this Advent for the 'anthem at the Advent Candle Lighting', as in Advent and Lent we do not sing the Introit but alternate The Great Litany and The Decalogue in procession. For the last several years we have used selections from the O antiphons for these little spots before the liturgy, but I really miss the Introits and did not feel that we had the time to learn the Plainsong Gradual versions, so I decided to use Kathy's.
For Advent I (Ad te levavi) and II (Populus Sion) I set the words to the tune The King's Majesty (Hymnal 1940, #64, 1st tune, which in my experience is hardly ever sung for Palm Sunday). For Advent III (Gaudete) I used Wareham (Hymnal 1940, #119, a Transfiguration hymn "O wondrous type"), and for Advent IV (Rorate coeli) I used Duke Street (Hymnal 1940 and others, Jesus shall reign/O come, Creator Spirit, come et al). I also set Advent IV to The King's Majesty as my first choice, but then decided that with the rest of the music we are doing that day I wanted an easily-recognizable tune. (It will be preceded by I look from afar (the traditional one based on a fragment of Palestrina).
The King's Majesty is still under copyright so I won't post it here, but here are Advent III and Advent IV for anyone who might find them useful. (Edit: I just noticed that the Duke Street descant is by Lois Fyfe, whose Christ Church Descant Books my sopranos basically have memorized; if Lois objects, I will supply a version without the descant.)
