Hymns

Oh, the love of my Lord is the essence
Of all that I love here on earth
All the beauty I see He has given to me
And His giving is gentle as silence.

Every day, every hour, every moment
Have been blessed by the strength of His love
At the turn of each tide, He is there at my side,
And His touch is as gentle as silence.

There've been times when I've turned from his presence
And I've walked other paths, other ways
But I've called on His name in the dark of my shame
And His mercy was gentle as silence.

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suffering and shame,
And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.

Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above,
To bear it to dark Calvary.

In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see;
For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.

On the paten with the host
I offer you my lonely heart
All my life, my deeds, my thoughts
Thine shall be as mine thou art.

In the chalice let me be
A drop of water mingled there
Lost, O Jesus, in thy love
Thy great sacrifice I share

All today and every day
O Jesus, let me live in thee;
So that I no longer live
But that thou mayst live through me.

On this day of joy, on this day of hope
We come to you in Love, O Lord (2)

With this bread and wine, we come
To this Eucharistic feast
On this day of joy on this day of hope
We come to you in love.

Bread to be your body Lord
Wine to be your saving blood
On this day of joy on this day of hope
We come to you in love.

On this day, O beautiful Mother,
On this day we give thee our love.
Near thee, Madonna, fondly we hover,
Trusting thy gentle care to prove.

On this day we ask to share,
Dearest Mother, thy sweet care;
Aid us, ere our feet astray
Wander from thy guiding way.

Queen of Angels, deign to hear
Lisping children's humble prayer;
Young hearts gain, O Virgin pure,
Sweetly to thyself allure.

Rose of Sharon, lovely flower.
Beauteous bud of Eden's bower;
Cherished lily of the vale,
Virgin Mother, Queen we hail.

In vain the flowers of love we bring,
In vain sweet music's note we sing,
If contrite heart and lovely prayer,
Guide not our gifts to thy bright sphere.

Fast our days of life we run,
Soon the night of death will come;
Tower of strength in that dread hour,
Come with all thy gentle power.

On this house your blessing, Lord, 
On this house your graces bestow. 
On this house your blessing, Lord, 
May it come and never go. 
Bringing peace and joy and happiness, 
Bringing love that knows no end. 
On this house your blessing Lord. 
On this house your blessings send. 
On this house your loving, Lord, 
May it overflow each day. 

On this house your loving, Lord, 
May it come and with us stay. 
Drawing us in love and unity, 
By the love received from you. 
May it come each day anew. 

On this house your giving, Lord,
 May it turn and ever flow. 
On this house your giving, Lord, 
On this house your wealth bestow. 
Filling all our hopes and wishes, Lord, 
In the way you know is best. 
On this house your giving, Lord, 
May it come and with us rest. 

On this house your calling, Lord 
May it come to us each day. 
On this house your calling, Lord. 
May it come each day anew. 
Filling us with nobler yearnings, Lord, 
Calling us to live in You. 
On this house your calling, Lord, 
May it come each day anew

On we go to Jerusalem
The city if the house of God
Pilgrim people, we seek the Lord:
The Lord of the house of Rock.

Age on age proclaims his praises
Each declares him Lord of all.
Countless millions sing his glory
Answering his pilgrim call.

Peace he promised to our fathers
In the ancient desert land.
Peace he offers in abundance
To his faithful pilgrim band.

All we have is offered in him
As we come to sing his praise.
Blessed is the Lord of heaven.
Mighty God of all our days.

Come into the Holy City;
See the table now being spread;
In this place so large and furnished,
Eat of this passover bread.

Jesus set a clear example,
washing his disciple's feet.
If the Lord went out in service,
We must now his work complete.

Jesus said, "Love one another.
This indeed is my command".
And he told of Love's great measure,
From the cross with outstretched arms.

Once in royal David's city
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her Baby
In a manger for His bed:
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little Child.

He came down to earth from heaven,
Who is God and Lord of all,
And His shelter was a stable,
And His cradle was a stall;
With the poor, and mean, and lowly,
Lived on earth our Savior holy.

And through all His wondrous childhood
He would honor and obey,
Love and watch the lowly maiden,
In whose gentle arms He lay:
Christian children all must be
Mild, obedient, good as He.

For he is our childhood's pattern;
Day by day, like us He grew;
He was little, weak and helpless,
Tears and smiles like us He knew;
And He feeleth for our sadness,
And He shareth in our gladness.

And our eyes at last shall see Him,
Through His own redeeming love;
For that Child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above,
And He leads His children on
To the place where He is gone.

Not in that poor lowly stable,
With the oxen standing by,
We shall see Him; but in heaven,
Set at God's right hand on high;
Where like stars His children crowned
All in white shall wait around.

Open my eyes, Lord
Help me to see your face
Open my eyes, Lord
Help me to see.

Open my ears, Lord
Help me to hear your voice
Open my ears, Lord
Help me to hear.

Open my heart, Lord
Help me to love like you
Open my heart, Lord
Help me to love.

Open my lips, Lord
Help us to praise your name
Open my lips, Lord
Help us to praise.

Help me to live Lord,
Deep in your sacred heart,
Help me to live Lord,
Deep in your heart.

Open our eyes, Lord, We want to see Jesus,
To reach out and touch Him, and say that we love Him.

Open our ears, Lord, and help us to listen
Open our eyes, Lord, we want to see Jesus.

Open our lips, Lord, and help us to praise all your marvels
To scatter the good seed and speak up for justice.

Open our hands, Lord, to reach out to others,
Open our minds, Lord, to lean from your spirit.

Open Our Hearts: Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah 
Open our hearts to hear your word, hallelu, hallelujah. 

Lord, bend my heart to do your will, hallelu, hallelujah. 
Open my eyes to see your law, hallelu, hallelujah. 

Open Wide: Hallelujah, hallelujah! 
Open wide your hearts to him, 
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. 

Oremus pro Pontifice nostro Benedicte;
Dominus conservet eum, et vivificet eum,
Et beatum faciat eum in terra,
Et non tradat eum in animam inimicorum ejus.

V/- Tu es Petrus
R/- Et super hanc petram aedificabo Ecclesiam meam 

Or 

V/- Constituit eum Dominum domus suae
R/- Et principem omnis possessionis suae.

Deus, omnium fidelium pastor et rector, famulum tuum N., quem pastorem Ecclesiae tuae praeesse voluisti, propitius respice: da ei, quaesumus, verbo et exemplo, quibus praeest, proficere: ut ad vitam, una cum grege sibi credito, perveniat sempiternam. Per Christum, Dominum nostrum.

R/- Amen.

Our gifts of bread and wine, 
Which once were
wheat and grape 
Will be your flesh and blood.

Receive, O holy Father, 
Almighty eternal God,
this spotless sacrificial offering 
Which our people make to you.

We offer it for our failings, 
Our countless sins and offences, 
May it rise before you as a fragrance
for our own and the whole world’s salvation.

Our hearts were made for you, Lord
Our hearts were made for you.
They’ll never find, never find, never find rest
Until they find their rest in you.

When you call me I will answer,
When you seek me you will find,
I will lead you back from exile
And reveal to you my mind.

I will take you from the nations
And will bring you to your land.
From your idols I will cleanse you
And you’ll cherish my command.

I will put my law within you,
I will write it on your heart;
I will be your God and Saviour,
You, my people set apart.

Our joy, O Lord, is in you {2}
You gather us around your table. {2}
You make us one at heart, in peace and love.

Our light you are and our life.{2}
You guide your people to the Kingdom. {2}
You share with us, O Lord, your peace and love.

This day of yours, Lord, we hail. {2}
We long to hear your words of comfort, {2}
and evermore to live, in peace and love.

Panis Angelicus fit panis hominum;
Dat panis coelicus figuris terminum:
O res mirabilis! manducat Dominum
Pauper, servus, et humilis.

Te trina Deitas unaque poscimus,
Sic nos tu visita, sicut te colimus;
Per tuas semitas duc nos quo tendimus,
Ad lucem quam inhabitas.
Amen.

Parce Domine, parce populo tuo:
ne in aeternum irascaris nobis.

Parce Domine, parce populo tuo:
ne in aeternum irascaris nobis.

Parce Domine, parce populo tuo:
ne in aeternum irascaris nobis.
Jesus of Nazareth

Arent you also one of his disciples.

If this man were not an evil doer, we would not have handed him over

It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death.

Not this man, but Barabas

Hail King of the Jews(2)

Crucify him(2)

We have a law and by that law he ought to die because he has made himself the son of God

If you release this man, you are not Ceaser's friend

Everyone who makes himself a king sets himself against Ceaser

Away with him(2)
Crucify him(2)

We have no king but Ceaser

Do not write the king of the Jews but this man said 
‘I am the King of the Jews’

Let us not tear it but let us cast lots for it too
See whose it shall be
Peace and joy be with you now and forever
Peace and joy be with you now and evermore.
Peace I give to you, to all of you, my friends, 
Love is my command, the love that never ends. 
Keep between yourselves the bond of charity, 
Live as one united family.

Peace I leave with you, my friends,
Peace the world cannot give.
Peace I leave with you, my friends,
So that your joy be ever full.

The Father's love I came to give,
To be the hope for all who live.
Take this gift and be at peace;
The Spirit of our love I bring.

By this love which you should have,
All will know you are my friends.
Take my words of life to heart,
And you will live with hope and joy.

All I have I give to you;
I share with you the Father's love.
I came so that you may have life,
And have it to the full.

If you love me, keep my Word,
And our home we'll make with you.

Peace is flowing like a river,
Flowing out through you and me,
Spreading out into the desert,
Setting all the captives free.

Chorus:
Let it flow through me,
Let it flow through me,
Let the mighty peace of God
Flow out through me.(x2)

Love is flowing like a river ...

Joy is flowing like a river ...

Faith is flowing like a river...

Hope is flowing like a river ...

His healing's flowing like a river ...

Praise and honour to you, Lord Jesus Christ (x2) 

Harden not your hearts but hear his voice. 

Praise God, Praise God,
Let his love remind us of the power of his name
Praise God, Praise God,
All creation sings its song of praise
 
I will praise you God & King
Each and every day
My mouth shall never cease to sing
And I shall bless your name forever
 
Lord you’re highly to be praised
Your greatness over whelms
Age on age will praise your work
And I will bliss your name forever.
 
The splendor of you majesty
Is joyfully retold
The fame of your abundant good
And justice we will sing forever
 
The Lord is kind and merciful
His anger slow to rise
The Lord is good to all his work
His graciousness remains forever
 
Let the faithful bless you Lord
And all your work give thanks
Let them sing the glory of
Your kingdom and your might forever
 
We shall share with all the world
Your splendor and your might
Your kingdom is the kingdom for
All ages and will last forever
 
The Lord is faithful in his words
And holy in his works
He raises up the holy and
He lifts the falling up forever.
