Hymns

This is my prayer to thee, my Lord
strike, strike at the root of penury in my heart.

Give me the strength lightly to bear 
My joys and sorrows.

Give me the strength to make my love 
Fruitful in service.

Give me the strength never to disown the poor 
Or bend my knees before insolent might.

Give me the strength to raise my mind high 
Above daily trifles.

And give me the strength to surrender my strength 
To thy will with love.

This is my will, my one command,
That love should dwell among you all.
This is my will, that you should love
As I have shown that I love you.

No greater love can any have
Than that one die to save his friends.
You are my friends if you obey
What I command that you should do.

I call you now no longer slaves;
No slave knows all the master does.
I call you friends, for all I hear
My Father say, you hear from me.

You chose not me, but I chose you,
That you should go and bear much fruit.
I chose you out that you in me
Should bear much fruit that will abide.

All that you ask my Father dear
For my name's sake you shall receive.
This is my will, my one command,
That love should dwell in each, in all.

Chorus
Alleluia, Alleluia.
Alleluia, Alleluia.

This is the day that the lord has made let us rejoice, be glad in it.
Jesus will never die again, death has no power over him.

This is the day which the Lord has made, 
Let us be glad and rejoice: 
He is the maker of heaven and earth, 
Praise him with heart and with voice. 

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia. 

This is the day which the Lord has made, 
Sing of his bounty and love; 
Thank him this day for his wonderful gifts, 
Poured out on us from above. 

This is the day which the Lord has made, 
Cry out in praise of his name; 
We have assembled to ponder his word, 
May we his message proclaim. 

This is the day which the Lord has made, 
Rising, he conquered all strife; 
Having attended his banquet of love, 
Rise in the newness of life.

This is the day, this is the day.
That the Lord has made, that the Lord has made.
We will rejoice, we will rejoice,
And be glad in it, and be glad in it.
This is the day that the Lord has made.
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day, this is the day
That the Lord has made.

We are the sons, we are the sons,
Of the living God, of the living God.
We will rejoice, we will rejoice,
And be glad in Him, and be glad in Him.
We are the sons of the living God.
We will rejoice and be glad in Him.
We are the sons, we are the sons
Of the living God.

This world you have made is a beautiful place,
It tells the power of your love,
We rejoice in the beauty of your world,
From the seas to the heavens above!

The morning whispers of purity,
The evening of your peace,
The thunder booms your exuberance,
And the awesome power you release. 
Chorus

The tenderness of the new born child.
The gentleness of the rains,
Simplicity in a single cell,
Complexities in a brain. 
Chorus

Your stillness rests in a silent pool
infinity drifts in space ,
your grandeur straddles the mountain tops
and we see your face in each face. 
Chorus

Those who weep as they sow, 
Will rejoice at the harvest. 
Give your thanks to the Lord 
Who brings joy out of sorrow. 
He turns sorrow into joy. 

All your building is vain unless God is the builder, 
All your watching is vain unless God is the watchman.

You may rise before dawn, seek your bed after nightfall, 
And yet labour in vain, for the Lord gives the increase. 

In his love God makes rich by his present of children, 
Who, like arrows in flight, will be swift to protect you. 

What a blessing God gives in this quiver of arrows, 
When the enemy stands in the gate of the city.

Chorus:
Though the mountains may fall and the hills turn to dust,
yet the love of the Lord will stand
as a shelter for all who will call on His name.
Sing the praise and the glory of God.

Could the Lord ever leave you?
Could the Lord forget His love?
Though a mother forsake her child,
He will not abandon you
Chorus

Should you turn and forsake Him,
He will gently call your name.
Should you wander away from Him,
He will always take you back.
Chorus

Go to Him when you're weary,
He will give you eagle's wings.
You will run never tire,
For your God will be your strength.
Chorus

As he swore to your Fathers,
when the flood destroyed the land.
He will never forsake you,
He will swear to you again.
Chorus

The skies are telling the glory of god (x2)

I will recount, Lord, Thy wonderful deeds (x2)
Chorus

Chorus
Till the end of my days, O Lord,
I Will Bless Your name, Sing Your praise,
Give You Thanks, all my days


You have made me little less than a God,
And have lavished my heart with your love.
With dignity and honour You’ve clothed me,
given me rule over all. 
Chorus
 
You have blessed me with good things and plenty,
and surrounded my table with friends.
Their love and their laughter enrich me;
together we sing Your praise. . 
Chorus

Your sun and Your moon give me light,
And Your stars show the way through the night.
Your rivers and streams have refreshed me. I will sing
Your praise. 
Chorus

How great is Your love, O Father,
That You sent us Your Savior Son. His death and His
rising will heal us, and draw us all unto You. . 
Chorus

Time is too short, even though we have forever 
To sing our praises to the King of kings. 

We look at the earth and it speaks your name. 
We look to the hills and they sing your praise. 
We look to the stars and they shout with joy: 
"He is Lord, Lord of all creation". 

We look to the cross and it tells your fame, 
Death and resurrection we proclaim; 
At the end of time you will come again 
As the Lord, Lord of our salvation. 

Listen to the Word, it will give you light 
Gather round the board, eat the bread of life 
Be like Jesus Christ who a slave became 
But was made Lord of every nation.

To follow the Lord and find freedom,
To love as he loved and bring peace,
To spend our lifetime for his kingdom,
To want it to grow and increase.

To search for the truth never ceasing.
To look for a star in the night.
To knock at the door never tiring.
To wait eagerly for his light.

To walk hand in hand with each other,
To share with the burdened their pain,
To comfort the people who suffer,
To help those in need for no gain.

To sense how oppressed are the poorest,
To struggle for justice and right,
To stand for the truth and be honest.
To die to oneself in the fight.

To God in gladness sing, How great his name.
Give thanks to him for his marvellous deeds.
Alleluia Alleluia.

He came among his people, he dwelt among the poor,
He chose of all the weakest, the humblest to be friends.

Like rain that falls from heaven and makes the earth bring forth,
His word our hearts refreshes, his law our life transforms.

No longer are we servants, his friends each one he calls,
He brings us to his table to share the bread and wine.

The light that shines in darkness, the victory over death,
He enters into glory, like him we too shall arise.

The flame of love his Spirit, the universe pervades,
Through him a new creation, begins and never ends.

To Jesus' Heart, all burning
With fervent love for all,
My heart with fondest yearning
Shall raise its joyful call.

Chorus. 
While ages course along,
Blest be with loudest song,
The sacred heart of Jesus
By every heart and tongue.
The sacred heart of Jesus
By every heart and tongue.

O heart, for me on fire
With love no-one can speak
My yet untold desire
God gives me for thy sake.

When life away is flying,
and earth's false glare is done;
still, Sacred heart, in dying
I'll say I'm all thine own.

To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, 
The only God, our saviour,
Be honour and glory forever and ever. 
To the king of all ages, forever and ever Amen

Oremus
SANCTA Maria, regina caelorum, mater Domini nostri Iesu Christi, 
et mundi domina, quae nullum derelinquis, et nullum despicis: respice me, 
domina, clementer oculo pietatis, 
et impetra mihi apud tuum dilectum Filium cunctorum veniam peccatorum: 
ut qui nunc tuam sanctam et immaculatam conceptionem devoto affectu recolo, 
aeternae in futurum beatitudinis, bravium capiam, ipso, quem virgo peperisti, 
donante Domino nostro Iesu Christo: qui cum Patre et Sancto Spiritu vivit et regnat, 
in Trinitate perfecta, Deus, in saecula saeculorum. Amen.

Tu es pastor ovium, princeps Apostolorum,
tibi traditae sunt claves regni coelorum.

Tu es Petrus 
Et super hanc petram aedificabo ecclesiam meam. 
Tibi dabo claves regni caelorum. 

Tu septiformis munere,
digitus paternae dexterae,
tu rite promissum Patris,
sermone ditans guttura.

Accende lumen sensibus,
infunde amorem cordibus,
infirma nostri corporis
virtute firmans perpeti.

Hostem repellas longius
pacemque dones protinus;
ductore sic te praevio
vitemus omne noxium.

Per te sciamus da Patrem
noscamus atque Filium,
te utriusque Spiritum
credamus omni tempore.

Deo Patri sit gloria
et Filio, qui a mortuis;
surrexit, ac Paraclito
in saeculorum saecula.

Amen.

Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.

Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor.
Exsultemus, et in ipso jucundemur.
Timeamus, et amemus Deum vivum.
Et ex corde diligamus nos sincero.
Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.

Simul ergo cum in unum congregamur:
Ne nos mente dividamur, caveamus.
Cessent iurgia maligna, cessent lites.
Et in medio nostri sit Christus Deus.
Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.

Simul quoque cum beatis videamus,
Glorianter vultum tuum, Christe Deus:
Gaudium quod est immensum, atque probum,
Saecula per infinita saeculorum. Amen.

United in one body with Jesus Christ the Lord, 
We bring to You our offering 
Of bread and wine, O God. 

We are the wheat of Christ: 
If we be ground in the mill of life, 
May we be found pure bread. 

We are the grape of Christ; 
If we be crushed in the wine-press of suffering, 
May we be found pure wine.

Unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul
Unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul
Oh my God, I trust in Thee,
Let me not be ashamed
Let not mine enemies triumph over me

Yea, let none that wait on Thee be ashamed
Yea, let none that wait on Thee be ashamed
Oh my God, I trust in Thee
Let me not be ashamed
Let not mine enemies triumph over me

Show me Thy ways, Thy ways Oh Lord
teach me Thy paths, Thy paths Oh Lord
Oh my God, I trust in Thee,
Let me not be ashamed
Let not mine enemies triumph over me

Remember not the sins of my youth
Remember not the sins of my youth
Oh my God, I trust in Thee
Let me not be ashamed
Let not mine enemies triumph over me

Unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul
Unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul
Oh my God, I trust in Thee
Let me not be ashamed
Let not mine enemies triumph over me

Oh my God, I trust in Thee
Let me not be ashamed
Let not mine enemies triumph over me

Veni Creator Spiritus, mentes tuorum visita,
imple superna gratia, quae tu creasti, pectora.

Qui diceris Paraclitus, altissimi donum Dei,
fons vivus, ignis, caritas, et spiritalis unctio.

Tu septiformis munere, digitus paternae dexterae,
tu rite promissum Patris, sermone ditans guttura.

Accende lumen sensibus, infunde amorem cordibus,
infirma nostri corporis virtute firmans perpeti.

Hostem repellas longius pacemque dones protinus;
ductore sic te praevio vitemus omne noxium.

Per te sciamus da Patrem noscamus atque Filium,
te utriusque Spiritum credamus omni tempore.

surrexit, ac Paraclito in saeculorum saecula.

Virgo Dei Genitrix, quem totus non capit orbis:
In tua se clausit viscera factus homo.

Vera fides Geniti purgavit crimina mundi:
Et tibi virginitas inviolata manet.

Te matrem pietatis, opem te clamitat orbis:
Subvenias famulis, 0 benedicta, tuis.

Gloria magna Patri, compar tibi gloria, Nato:
Spiritui Sancto gloria magna Deo. Amen.

Wake up, O Christian, rise! 
Away with lesser things; 
Give heart and soul and mind and strength 
To serve the King of kings. 

Awake, keep awake, 
For the Bridegroom is now near; 
We welcome his Parousia 
With lamps and hearts aglow. 

Wake up, O Christian, rise! 
His kingdom tarries long; 
Bring in the day of brotherhood 
And end the night of wrong. 

Wake up, O Christian, rise! 
How long the Church must wait. 
Her strength unequal to her task. 
Rise up and make her great.
