1. Guide me, O thou great redeemer,
Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but thou art mighty,
Hold me with thy powerful hand;
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven
Feed me till I want no more;
Feed me till I want no more.
2. Open now the crystal fountain
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through:
Strong deliverer, strong deliverer;
Be thou still my strength and shield;
Be thou still my strength and shield.
3. When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of death, and hell's destruction
Land me safe on Canaan's side:
Songs of praises, songs of praises,
I will ever give to thee;
I will ever give to thee. (*to repeat)

Psalm 109:1-4 r.4
RESPONSE: (Cantor, then all)
You are a priest for ever, a priest like Melchizedek of old.
The Lord’s revelation to my Master:
‘Sit on my right:
your foes I will put beneath your feet.’
R/ You are a priest for ever, a priest like Melchizedek of old.
The Lord will wield from Zion
your sceptre of power:
rule in the midst of all your foes.
R/ You are a priest for ever, a priest like Melchizedek of old.
A prince from the day of your birth
on the holy mountains;
from the womb before the dawn I begot you.
R/ You are a priest for ever, a priest like Melchizedek of old.
The Lord has sworn an oath he will not change.
‘You are a priest for ever,
a priest like Melchizedek of old.’
R/ You are a priest for ever, a priest like Melchizedek of old.

Verse: (Spoken)
I am the living bread which has come down from heaven, says the Lord. Anyone who eats this bread will live for ever.
Mass of St Bernadette | Music by Mike Stanley
"O Bread of Heaven, beneath this veil
Thou dost my very God conceal:
My Jesus, dearest treasure, hail!
I love Thee and, adoring, kneel;
Each loving soul by Thee is fed
With Thine own Self
in form of Bread.
O food of life,
Thou Who dost give
The pledge of immortality;
I live, no ‘tis not I that live;
God gives me life, God lives in me:
He feeds my soul, He guides my ways,
And every grief with joy repays.
O Bond of love that dost unite
The servant to his living Lord ;
Could I dare live and not requite
Such love - then death were meet reward:
I cannot live unless to prove
Some love for such unmeasured love.
Beloved Lord, in Heaven above
There, Jesus, Thou awaitest me,
To gaze on Thee with endless love;
Yes, thus I hope, thus shall it be:
For how can He deny me Heaven,
Who here on earth Himself hath given?"
Words and Music: HF Hemy

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
On the night before He died
He took the bread in His holy hands
blessed the bread and broke it
and gave it to His friends, as he said
Do this in memory of me,
this is my Body, given for you.
Do this in memory of me,
take it and eat it, Remember me:
Remember me.
On the night before He died
He took the cup that was filled with wine
gave thanks to His Father
and gave it to His friends, as he said
Do this in memory of me,
this is my Blood, poured out for you.
Do this in memory of me,
take it and drink it, Remember me:
Remember me.
So each time we eat this bread
and every time we drink this cup
we proclaim your death Lord Jesus
until you come again, for you said
Do this in memory of me,
this is my Body, given for you.
Do this in memory of me,
take it and eat it, Remember me:
Remember me.
Do this in memory of me,
this is my Blood, poured out for you.
Do this in memory of me,
take it and drink it, Remember me:
Remember me.
Remember me

1. I am the Bread of life.
You who come to me shall not hunger;
and who believe in me shall not thirst.
No-one can come to me unless the Father draw them.
REFRAIN:
And I will raise you up, and I will raise you up,
and I will raise you up on the last day.
2. The bread that I will give
is my flesh for the life of the world,
and if you eat of this bread, you shall live for ever,
you shall live for ever.
3. Unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of Man,
and drink of his blood, and drink of his blood,
you shall not have life within you.
FINAL REFRAIN:
And I will raise you up, and I will raise you up,
and I will raise you up on the last day...
I'll raise you up on the last day.
