In a normal situation where the tank can survive for 10 or 15 seconds without heals, you'll probably want to tier up major perfect major for anthem buffs and then start healing.

If it is a tough pull where a lot of damage is going to happen quickly or the tank is particularly squishy, then you will want to do something like major-bolster courage-major-bolster courage, etc. or even hit Cry of the Chorus to jump right into Anthem of the 3rd Age.

Anthem buffs are nice but they are something to do when you don't need to heal, not something that takes precedence over throwing out a heal.

**edit** Just noticed you said "hate" instead of "heals". You shouldn't need to worry about song of soothing unless your tank is bad. If you get aggro, hit your bubble (eliminates induction setback by damage) and use song of soothing at that point.

You shouldn't have any hate until after you cast some heals. You can use anthem of compassion to generate less threat before you cast heals and save song of soothing for a later part of the fight.
