Some solo selections can be found in the “Solo Guitar Hymnal” (Melbay) by Jonathan Bass.

Solo Guitar Hymnal
Solo Guitar Hymnal

The music in this book has been compiled to correspond to each Sunday of the liturgical year and may be used as a supplementary source for church musicians. Gregorian Chant, Lutheran cantatas, hymns, and motets are used as the basis for original compositions and arrangements for solo classical guitar. In attempts to be as ecumenical as possible, the selections have been chosen based on multiple lectionaries. In many cases scripture references have been provided for more flexibility. Written in standard notation.
