Offertory | We Bring Our Gifts to Your Altar

We bring our gifts to Your altar, O Lord God of hosts
We lay them at the foot of Your throne
We bring our gifts to Your altar, O Lord God of hosts
We offer them to praise You alone
We bring our gifts to Your altar, O Lord

We bring our hearts to Your altar, O Lord God of hosts
Unite them with the heart of Your Son
For He offered His life as a ransom for sin
By His death the victory is won
We bring our hearts to Your altar, O Lord

Prepare our hearts to receive You, O Lord God of hosts
Cleanse us and wash away our sins
We sing Your praise with the angels and saints at Your throne
For this is where Heaven enters in
Prepare our hearts to receive You, O Lord

We bring our gifts to Your altar, O Lord God of hosts
May our sacrifice be pleasing to Your sight
Fruit of the earth and work of human hands
Which will become for us the Bread of Life
We bring our gifts to Your altar, O Lord

We bring our gifts to Your altar, O Lord

Communion # 1 | Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, sanctify me
Body of Christ, save me
Water from the side of Christ, wash me
Passion of Christ, give me strength

Hear me, Jesus
Hide me in Thy wounds
that I may never leave Thy side
From all the evil that surrounds me,
defend me
And when the call of death arrives,
bid me come to Thee that I may praise Thee
with Thy saints, forever

Repeat all

Communion #2 | O Saving Lamb

O Saving Victim, open wide
The gate of Heav’n to us below
Our foes press on from ev’ry side
Your aid supply, your strength bestow

To Your great name be endless praise
Immortal God-head, One in Three
O grant us endless length of days
In our true native land with Thee

O Saving Lamb,
please take my hand
O Love Divine,
be all of mine

O Saving Lamb,
please take my hand
O Love Divine,
be all of mine
for all of time

Recessional | A Rightful Place

Let us live our lives
so that all might see
that our hearts are restless
’til they rest in Thee

Let us build Your kingdom
in truth and grace
so that all might know
they have a rightful place

Beauty ever ancient and new
Breaking through our deafness so we hear You
Shattering the darkness of night
A new dawn is rising to bring Your light
to all the world

Let us live our lives
so that all might see
that our hearts are restless
’til they rest in Thee

Let us build Your kingdom
in truth and grace
so that all might know
they have a rightful place

Repeat refrain
