Useful procrastination.

I have a bad, bad habit of not getting work done where the deadline is impending, even work that's not terribly time-consuming or, interestingly, work that I enjoy. This is why yesterday, when I should have been working on one of my two half-finished handbell compositions I want/need to take to AGEHR national in a bit under two weeks, I instead worked on and largely finished (other than a quarter of the piano part and the ATB harmonies) part three of my Mass of Ordinary Celebration, the lengthyish "Holy Holy." Good for me. I guess.

But here is a question: The melody in this mass part covers an entire octave of range, currently from middle D to high D. For easiest congregational singing, what ought I change it to, if anything?
