VERSE 1:

Sing of the Lord's goodness,

Father of all wisdom,

come to him and bless his name.

Mercy he has shown us,

his love is for ever,

faithful to the end of days.

CHORUS

Come, then, all you nations,

sing of the Lord's goodness,

melodies of praise and thanks to God.

Ring out the Lord's glory,

praise him with your music,

worship him and bless his name.

VERSE 2

Power he has wielded,

honour is his garment,

risen from the snares of death.

His word he has spoken,

one bread he has broken,

new life he now gives to all.

CHORUS 2:

Come, then, all you nations,

sing of the Lord's goodness,

melodies of praise and thanks to God.

Ring out the Lord's glory,

VERSE 3: (breakdown)

Courage in our darkness,

comfort in our sorrow,

Spirit of our God most high;

solace for the weary,

pardon for the sinner,

splendor of the living God.

CHORUS 3:

Come, then, all you nations,

sing of your Lord's goodness,

melodies of praise and thanks to God.

Ring out the Lord's glory,

praise him with your music,

worship him and bless his name.

4 Praise him with your singing,

praise him with the trumpet,

praise God with the lute and harp;

praise him with the cymbals,

praise him with your dancing,

praise God till the end of days.

Come, then, all you nations,

sing of your Lord's goodness,

melodies of praise and thanks to God.

Ring out the Lord's glory,

praise him with your music,

worship him and bless his name.

Offertory Song

1. Speak O Lord, as we come to You

To receive the food of Your Holy Word.

Take Your truth, plant it deep in us;

Shape and fashion us in Your like - ness,

That the Light of Christ might be seen today

In our acts of love and our deeds of faith.

Speak O Lord, and fulfil in us

All Your purposes for Your glory.

2. Teach us Lord full obedience,

Holy reverence, true humility;

Test our thoughts and our attitudes

In the radiance of Your purity.

Cause our faith to rise; cause our eyes to see

Your majestic love and authority.

Words of pow'r that can never fail-

Let their truth prevail over unbelief.

3. Speak, O Lord, and renew our minds;

Help us grasp the heights of Your plans for us-

Truths unchanged from the dawn of time

That will echo down through eternity.

And by grace we'll stand on Your promises,

And by faith we'll walk as You walk with us.

Speak, O Lord, till Your church is built

And the earth is filled with Your glory.

Words and Music: Stuart Townsend

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

One cup of blessing which we bless
