Thank you. Yes, the Breastplate is not sung nearly enough. Hadn't heard that Patrick probably didn't write it, though.
We get a rousing version on Trinity Sunday chez nous. We have an excellent acoustic space, talented organist and percussionist, and one hundred and fifty people singing their lungs out, led by one of the best mostly-amateur parish choirs in the US. It is quite magnificent.
We also use it at ordinations in our diocese; our cathedral is large and they really need all eight of those verses to come up the aisle, stately-like.
