Offertory Song


1. Take my life and let it be

   consecrated, Lord, to thee.

   Take my moments and my days;

   let them flow in ceaseless praise.


2 Take my hands and let them move

   at the impulse of thy love.

   Take my feet and let them be

   swift and purposeful for thee.


3. Take my voice and let me sing

   always, only, for my King.

   Take my intellect and use

   every power as thou shalt choose,



4. Take my will and make it thine;

   it shall be no longer mine.

   Take my heart it is thine own;

   it shall be thy royal throne.


5. Take my love; my Lord, I pour

   at thy feet its treasure-store.

   Take myself, and I will be

   ever, only, all for thee.

Music and words:  W. A Mozart (1756-91) Text: Frances R. Havergal 

Holy Holy


Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of hosts.

Heaven and earth are full of your glory.

Hosanna, hosanna in the highest.

Hosanna in the highest.


Blessed is he who comes in

the name of the Lord.

Hosanna, hosanna in the highest.

Hosanna in the highest.

Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,

have mercy on us.


Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,

have mercy on us.


Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,

grant us peace.

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


Communion Song



1. From heaven You came, helpless babe

 Entered our world, Your glory veiled

 Not to be served but to serve     

 And give Your life that we live


CHORUS:

This is our God,  the Servant King;     

He calls us now to follow  Him     

To bring our lives as a daily offering

Of worship  to the Servant King.    


2. There in the garden of tears 

My heavy load He chose to bear;     

His heart with sorrow was torn,

Yet not my will, but Yours he said.


3. Come see His hands and his feet,

The scars that speak of sacrifice

Hands that flung stars into space

To cruel nails surrendered


4. So let us learn now to serve,

And in our lives enthrone Him

Each other's needs to prefer

For it is Christ we're serving


Words & Music: Graham Kendrick

Recessional Song


REFRAIN:

Do not be afraid, 

       for I have redeemed you.

I have called you by your name; 

      you are mine.


1. When you walk through the waters I'll be with you,

   You will never sink beneath the waves.



2. When the fire is burning all around you,

   You will never be consumed by the flames.



3. When the fear of loneliness is looming,

   Then remember I am at your side.



4. When you dwell in the exile of a stranger,

   Remember you are precious in my eyes.


5. You are mine, O my child; I am your father,

   And I love you with a perfect love.
