Agh! Where do I start?
The most typical pieces you’ll hear at Mass are the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, Agnus Dei: these are used in many places in our own diocese.
The most important pieces to learn in terms of being able to sing in solidarity with other Catholics are the Pater Noster (of course), the Credo, and the four Marian hymns which are noted below (especially the Salve Regina). These are frequently sung in large gatherings of Catholics for Mass or other events.
Some of the hymns have repeating melodies, making them easier to learn. Two fairly simple ones, and good ones to know, are Adoro te Devote and Veni Creator Spiritus.
