Gathering | There’s a Wideness in God’s Mercy

Verse 1 & 2
There is a wideness in God’s mercy
Like the wideness of the sea
There’s a kindness in God’s justice
Which is more than liberty
There is plentiful redemption
In the blood that has been shed
There is joy for all the members
In the sorrows of the Head

There is welcome for the sinner
And a promised grace made good
There is mercy with the Savior
There is healing in Christ’s blood
There is grace enough for thousands
Of new worlds as great as this
There is room for fresh creations
In that upper home of bliss

Refrain
So be merciful
Just as our God is merciful
Be merciful
Just as our God is merciful to us
Let there be a wideness in our mercy
Let there be a kindness in our hearts
O___may our lives be merciful

Repeat Refrain

delivered me from my fear.
Look to God that you might shine
with the radiance of God’s joy.

R./ Taste and see the goodness of the Lord,
the goodness of the Lord.

The Lord has eyes for justice,
ears to hear your cry.
God knows your broken heart.

Take refuge in your God.

the goodness of the Lord.

Responsorial Psalm | Cantor: Onie

[mp3 recording to follow]

R./ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

Have mercy on me, O God, in your goodness;
in the greatness of your compassion wipe out my offense.
Thoroughly wash me from my guilt
and of my sin cleanse me.

R./ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

For you are not pleased with sacrifices;
should I offer a burnt offering, you would not accept it.
My sacrifice, O God, is a contrite spirit;
a heart contrite and humbled, O God, you will not spurn.

R./ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

Be bountiful, O LORD, to Zion in your kindness
by rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem;
Then shall you be pleased with due sacrifices,
burnt offerings and holocausts.

R./ It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice.

Preparation of the Gifts | Love Never Fails

If I speak with the tongues of the earth
if the angels fill my mouth
yet do not have love
I am but a sound

If I prophesy___and understand all things
If mountains shake by my faith
without love, I am nothing at all

Love is patient
love is kind
love rejoices in the truth

It bears all things
believes all things
it hopes all things
endures all things
Love never fails

If I give away everything I own
give my body to be burned
yet do not have love
I gain nothing more

Prophecies will cease
Tongues will be silent
knowledge will be no more
the partial will pass away

Love is patient
love is kind
love rejoices in the truth

It bears all things
believes all things
it hopes all things
endures all things
Love never fails

When I was a child
I talked, thought and lived like a child
But now that I have grown
I have put these things aside

My knowledge is imperfect now
then I’ll know as I am known
that faith, hope, and love remain
and the greatest of these is love

Love is patient
love is kind
love rejoices in the truth

It bears all things
believes all things
it hopes all things
endures all things
Love never fails

Preparation of the Gifts | We Walk By Faith

We walk by faith
and not by sight
No gracious words we hear
From Christ who spoke as none e’er spoke
but we believe Him near

We may not touch
the hands and side
Nor follow where He trod
Yet in the promise we rejoice
and cry, we cry

“My Lord and God”
“You are my Lord and God”
“You are my Lord and God”
“You will always be the Lord of all of me”

Help then, O Lord
our unbelief
And may our faith abound
To call on You when You are near
and seek where You are found

Then when our life
of faith is done
In realms of clearer light
We may behold You as You are
in full and endless sight

“My Lord and God”
“You are my Lord and God”
“You are my Lord and God”
“You will always be the Lord of all of me”

I believe You were born of a Virgin’s womb
I believe You’re the Way, the Life, and the Truth
I believe that You did so that we might live
I believe! I believe!

I believe that You rose through the Father’s love
I believe in the Spirit You breathed on us
Lord, I know though I doubt You will stand by me
Help my unbelief!

“My Lord and God”
“You are my Lord and God”
“You are my Lord and God”
“You will always be the Lord of all of me”
