1.
Alleluia! Sing to Jesus!
His the scepter, His the throne.
Alleluia! His the triumph,
His the victory alone.
Hark! the songs of peaceful Zion,
Thunder like a mighty flood.
Jesus out of every nation,
Has redeemed us by His blood.
2.
Alleluia! Not as orphans,
Are we left in sorrow now.
Alleluia! He is near us,
faith believes nor questions how.
Though the cloud from sight received Him,
When the forty days were over.
Shall our hearts forget His promise,
“I am with you ever more”?
3.
Alleluia! Bread of heaven,
Here on earth our food, our stay!
Alleluia! Here the sinful
turn to you from day to day.
Intercessor, friend of sinners,
Earth’s Redeemer, plead for us.
Where the song of all the sinless,
Sweep across the crystal sea.
(5PM) OFFERTORY 1: SEED, SCATTERED AND SOWN
Chorus:
Seed, scattered and sown.
Wheat, gathered and grown.
Bread, broken and shared as one,
The living bread of God.
Vine, fruit of the land.
Wine, work of our hands.
One cup that is shared by all,
The living cup, the living bread of God.
1.
Is not the bread we break,
A sharing in our Lord?
Is not the cup we bless,
The blood of Christ out-poured?
2.
The seed which falls on rock,
Will wither and will die.
The seed within good ground,
Will flower and have life
3.
As wheat upon the hills,
Was gathered and was grown.
So may the Church of God,
Be gathered into one
(5PM) OFFERTORY 2: ON THE PATEN
1.
On the paten with the Host,
I offer up my lowly heart.
All my life, my deeds, my thoughts,
Thine shall be as mine Thou art.
2.
In the chalice let me be,
A drop of water mingled there.
Lost O Jesus, in Thy love,
Thy great sacrifice I share.
3.
All today and every day,
O Jesus let me live in Thee.
So that I no longer live,
But that Thou may live through me.
HOLY, HOLY

Pleni sunt caeli et terra gloria tua,
Hosanna in excelsis.
Benedictus qui venit, in nomine Domini,
hosanna in excelsis

The day of resurrection!
Earth tell it out abroad;

From earth to heaven’s height.

The glorious Lord of Light.
2.
Our hearts be free from e-vil,
That we may see aright;
The Saviour resurrected,
In His eternal light,
And hear His message plain-ly,
Delivered calm and clear.
“Rejoice with me in tri-umph,
Be glad and do not fear.”
3.
Now let the heav’ns be joyful,
And earth her song begin;
Let the round world keep triumph,
And all that is there-in,
Let all things in creation,
Their notes of gladness blend.
For Christ the Lord has risen,
Our joy that has no end.

This bread which brings to mind each meal
Which men have shared in happiness;
Lord, give it power to make us free.

In my heart He's near

Your presence in one another.
Your life, poured out in love today,
Unites us all in you.
2.
Loving Lord, Creator God, open our eyes to see
The good that lives in each of us,
That called the world to be.
And when we fail to see the good,
When friendships falter and crumble,
Give us the courage to forgive that we may live in peace.
3.
Living Word, O Son of God, Your love shows us the way
That we may live in harmony, and from you never stray.
Wipe all oppression from our midst;
Give us a love for all people.
Your song of justice sing in us,
To live for peace today.

Chorus:
Thank you, Lord, for all You’ve done
Thing both great and small
And for Jesus Christ, Your Son,
Thank you most of all

You forgive us when we falter,
You bring healing when we sin
You redeem our life from bondage,
And renew us deep within

You have brought us out of darkness
To the kingdom of Your Son
In whom all things hold together
By whose cross we are made one

And the skies proclaim Your work,
Day to day takes up the story
Night to night declares Your Word

Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name

Rising again I bless Your name

When I am dry You fill my cup
You are my all in all
