Opening Song

Will you come and follow me

if I but call your name?

Will you go where you don’t know

and never be the same?

Will you let my love be shown,

will you let my name be known,

will you let my life be grown

in you and you in me?

Will you leave your self behind

if I but call your name?

Will you care for cruel and kind

and never be the same?

Will you risk the hostile stare

should your life attract or scare,

will you let me answer prayer

in you and you in me?

Lord, your summons echoes true

when you but call my name.

Let me turn and follow you

and never be the same.

In your company I’ll go

where your love and footsteps show.

Thus I’ll move and live and grow

in you and you in me.

Prayer of Spiritual Communion

My Jesus,

I believe that You are present

in this Holy Sacrament of the altar.

I love You above all things

and I passionately desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,

come spiritually into my soul

so that I may unite myself wholly to You

now and forever.
Amen. 

Based on a prayer of St Alphonsus Liguorit

Recessional Song

CHORUS:

Follow me, follow me,

leave your home and family,

leave your fishing nets and boats upon the shore.

Leave the seed that you have sown,

leave the crops that you’ve grown,

leave the people you have known and follow me.

1. The foxes have their holes

   and the swallows have their nests,

   but the Son of man has no place to lay down.

   I do not offer comfort, I do not offer wealth,

   but in me will all happiness be found.

2. If you would follow me,

   you must leave old ways behind.

   You must take my cross and follow on my path.

   You may be far from loved ones,

   you may be far from home

   but my Father will welcome you at last.

3. Although I go away

   you will never be alone,

   for the Spirit will be there to comfort you.

   Though all of you may scatter,

   each follow his own path,

   still the Spirit of love will lead you home.
