Hymns

Alleluia, alleluia, give thanks to the risen Lord.
Alleluia, alleluia, give praise to his Name.

Jesus is Lord of all the earth.
He is the King of creation.

Spread the good news o'er all the earth:
Jesus has died and has risen.

We have been crucified with Christ.
Now we shall live for ever.

God has proclaimed his gracious gift:
Life eternal for all who believe.

Come, let us praise the living God,
Joyfully sing to our Saviour.

Alma Redemptoris Mater, 
quae pervia caeli Porta manes, 
et stella maris, succurre cadenti, Surgere qui curat, populo: 

tu quae genuisti, Natura mirante, 
tuum sanctum Genitorem
Virgo prius ac posterius, Gabrielis ab 
ore
Sumens illud Ave, peccatorum miserere.

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we'd first begun.

And the Father will dance as on a day of joy.
He will exult over you and renew you by His love.
And the Father will dance as on a day of joy.
He will exult over you and renew you by His love.

1. Shout for joy, all you His people.
Sing aloud and exult with All your hearts,
for Yahweh your God is in your midst.

2. You have no more evil to fear.
You have no more evil to fear.
Do not let your hands fall limp
for Yahweh your God is in your midst.

3. And when the time comes, I will rescue the lame,
and when the time comes I will gather the strays,
And when the time comes, I will be your guide.
I will gather you in and give you renown
among all peoples.

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Refrain
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?

Refrain

Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ Whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.

Refrain

See Him in a manger laid,
Whom the choirs of angels praise;
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid,
While our hearts in love we raise.

Refrain

Apostle of Jesus, a martyr-saint of old
The cousin of our Savior, of Whom thy love hath told;
A writer of the scriptures, with tongue of fire aflame,
The worker great of wonders, in Jesus Holy Name

St. Jude, though oft forgotten, thou shalt remembered be,
We hail thee now in glory, and have recourse to thee;
For help for the despairing, when hopeless seems the task,
And from the Heart of Jesus, thru thee we favors ask



Apostle of the Indian land, 
St. Francis/ St. Thomas guide us by the hand. 
The faith Thou didst to India give, 
Help us in turn to preach and live, 
The faith Thou didst to India give, 
Help us in turn to preach and live 
Help us in turn to preach and live. 

Despising all the world's vain show 
And all that riches can bestow 
Thou chosest as the path of God, 
The thorny way our Saviour trod. 
Thou chosest as the path of God, 
The thorny way our Saviour trod 
The thorny way our Saviour trod.

As the deer that pants for water so my soul longs after You
You alone are my hearts desire and I long to worship You.

You alone are my strength, my shield
To you alone does my spirit yield.
You alone are my hearts desire
and I long to worship You.

I want you more than gold or silver, only You can satisfy
You alone are the true joy giver and the apple of my eye.

You're my friend and You are my brother even though You are my King
I love you more than any other and much more than anything.

As we gather may Your Spirit work within us,
As we gather may we glorify Your name
Knowing well that as our hearts being to worship
We'll be blest because we came (x2)

Eastertide
I saw living water flowing from the Temple,
Blood and water flowing from His open side,
Bringing us the life of God and His salvation
And the people sang in joyful praise:
Allelu, alleluia!

We are people born of water and the Spirit,
We are people come to celebrate God's love,
We have come to heart the Word,
We have come to share the bread,
We have come to sing our praises to God above.

We are sons and daughters of the resurrection,
Halleluiah is the song we sing with joy,
All the praises we proclaim,
Go to God in Jesus' name
Through His cross He has become our great Amen.

We are folk who show concern for one another.
Yes, we know that God has given gifts to share.
Whether rich or whether poor,
Down and out or blest with more,
We are gathered here to tell you how much we care.

As we prepare to celebrate the birth of our Lord
Let us always remember why He came
And as we present our gifts to
our friends and all our loved ones
Let us offer Him the holy gift of praise

Chorus
Allelu, Alleluia , Allelu, Aleluia
Allelu, Alleluia, Praise the Lord (x2)

As we offer Him our praise
Let us sacrifice our lives
So that all the world may know of His love
For His birth at Bethlehem
Was a gift from God to man
Thank you Father for Your perfect gift of Love

Chorus
Allelu, Alleluia , Allelu, Aleluia
Allelu, Alleluia, Praise the Lord (x2)

At the cross her station keeping,
Stood the mournful Mother weeping,
Close to Jesus to the last.

Through her heart, his sorrow sharing,
All his bitter anguish bearing,
Now at length the sword has passed.

Oh, how sad and sore distressed
Was that Mother highly blest
Of the sole begotten One!

Christ above in torment hangs;
She beneath beholds the pangs
Of her dying, glorious Son.

Is there one who would not weep,
'Whelmed in miseries so deep,
Christ's dear Mother to behold?

Can the human heart refrain
From partaking in her pain,
In that Mother's pain untold?

Bruised, derided, cursed, defiled,
She beheld her tender Child,
All with bloody scourges rent.

For the sins of his own nation,
Saw him hang in desolation
Till his spirit forth he sent.

O sweet Mother! fount of love,
Touch my spirit from above,
Make my heart with yours accord.

Make me feel as you have felt;
Make my soul to glow and melt
With the love of Christ, my Lord.

Holy Mother, pierce me through,
In my heart each wound renew
Of my Savior crucified.

Let me share with you his pain,
Who for all our sins was slain,
Who for me in torments died.

Let me mingle tears with thee,
Mourning him who mourned for me,
All the days that I may live:

By the cross with you to stay,
There with you to weep and pray,
This I ask of you to give.

At the name of Jesus
Every knee shall bow,
Every tongue confess him
King of glory now:
'Tis the Father's pleasure
We should call him Lord,
Who from the beginning
Was the mighty Word.

At his voice creation
Sprang at once to sight,
All the angels faces
All the hosts of light,
Thrones and Dominations,
Stars upon their way,
All the heavenly orders,
In their great array.

Humbled for a season,
To receive a name
From the lips of sinners
Unto whom he came,
Faithfully he bore it
Spotless to the last,
Brought it back victorious,
When from death he passed:

Bore it up triumphant
With its human light,
Through all ranks of creatures,
To the central height,
To the throne of Godhead,
To the Father's breast;
Filled it with the glory
Of that perfect rest.

Name him, brothers, name him,
With love as strong as death,
But with awe and wonder
And with bated breath:
He is God the Saviour,
He is Christ the Lord,
Ever to be worshipped,
Trusted, and adored.

In your hearts enthrone him;
There let him subdue
All that is not holy,
All that is not true:
Crown him as your captain
In temptation's hour;
Let his will enfold you
In its light and power.

Brothers, this Lord Jesus
Shall return again,
With his Father's glory,
With his angel train;
For all wreaths of empire
Meet upon his brow,
And our hearts confess him
King of glory now.

At this time of giving gladly now we bring
Gifts that have been given by our God and King.

Here is our bread of pain, work of human hands
This is the bread of joy, we will share in love.

See, Lord, this joyous wine harvested from earth,
This is our wine of love, ready for the feast.

At your feet we fall, mighty risen Lord,
As we come before Your throne to worship You.
By Your Spirit's power You now draw our hearts,
And we hear Your voice in triumph ringing clear.

I am He that liveth, that liveth and was dead,
Behold I am alive forever more.

There we see You stand, mighty risen Lord,
Clothed in garments pure and holy, shining bright.
Eyes of flashing fire, feet like burnished bronze,
And the sound of many waters is Your voice.

Like the shining sun in its noonday strength,
We now see the glory of Your wondrous face.
Once that face was marred, but now You're glorified,
And Your words like a two-edged sword have mighty power.

Attende Domine, et miserere,
Quia peccavimus tibi.

Refrain:
Attende Domine, et miserere,
Quia peccavimus tibi.

Ad te Rex summe,
Omnium Redemptor,
Oculos nostros
Sublevamus flentes:
Exaudi, Christe,
Supplicantum preces.
Refrain

Dextera Patris,
Lapis angularis,
Via salutis,
Janua caelestis,
Ablue nostri
Maculas delicti.
Refrain

Rogamus, Deus,
Tuam majestatem:
Auribus sacris
Gemitus exaudi:
Crimina nostra
Placidus indulge.
Refrain

As I kneel before you, As I bow my head in prayer,
Take this day, make it yours and fill me with your love.

chorus:
Ave Maria, Gratia plena,
Dominus tecum, Benedicta tu.

All I have I give you, every dream and wish are yours,
Mother of Christ, mother of mine, present them to my Lord.
(Repeat chorus)

As I kneel before you, and I see your smiling face,
Every thought, every word is lost in your embrace.
(Repeat chorus)

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum, Benedicta tu 
In mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus.

Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
Nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.

Ave verum Corpus natum, de Maria Virgine:
Vere passum, immolatum in cruce pro homine:
Cuius latus perforatum fluxit aqua et sanguine:
Esto nobis praegustatum mortis in examine.

O Iesu dulcis! O Iesu pie! O Iesu Fili Mariae. Amen

Ave, Maris Stella, Dei Mater alma,
Atque semper virgo, Felix coeli porta.

Sumens illud Ave, Gabrielis ore,
Funda nos in pace, Mutans Evae nomen.

Solve vincia reis, Profer lumen caecis,
Mala nostra pelle, Bona cuncta posce.

Monstra te esse Matrem, Sumat per te preces
Qui pro nobis natus, Tulit esse tuus.

Virgo singularis, Inter omnes mitis,
Nos culpis solutos, Mites fac et castos.

Ave, Regina caelorum, Ave, Domina Angelorum:
Salve, radix, salve, porta, Ex qua mundo lux est orta:

Gaude, Virgo gloriosa, Super omnes speciosa,
Vale, o valde decora, Et pro nobis Christum exora.

V. Dignare me laudare te, Virgo sacrata.
R. Da mihi virtutem contra hostes tuos.

Awake from your slumber! Arise from your sleep!
A new day is dawning for all those who weep.
The people in darkness have seen a great light.
The Lord of our longing has conquered the night.

Let us build the city of God.
May our tears be turned into dancing!
For the Lord, our light and our Love,
has turned the night into day!

We are sons of the morning; we are daughters of day.
The One who has loved us has brightened our way.
The Lord of all kindness has called us to be
A light for his people to set their hearts free.

God is light; in him there is no darkness.
Let us walk in his light, his children one and all.
O comfort my people make gentle your words,
proclaim to my city the day of her birth.

O city of gladness, now lift up your voice!
Proclaim the good tidings that all may rejoice!

Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay
The little lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing the baby awakes
But little lord Jesus no crying he makes.
I love you lord Jesus; look down from the sky
And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Be near me lord Jesus i ask you to stay
Close by me for ever, and love me, i pray.
Bless all the dear children in your tender care,
And fit us for heaven, to live with you there.
