Gathering | Here I Am, Lord

I, the Lord of sea and sky
I have heard my people cry
All who dwell in deepest sin
My hand will save

I, who made the stars of night
I will make their darkness bright
Who will bear My light to them
Whom shall I send

Here I am, Lord
Is it I, Lord
I have heard You calling in the night
I will go, Lord
if You lead me
I will hold Your people in my heart

I, the Lord of snow and rain
I have borne my people’s pain
I have wept for them, they turn away

I will break their hearts of stone
Give them hearts for love alone
I will speak My word to them
Whom shall I send

Here I am, Lord
Is it I, Lord
I have heard You calling in the night
I will go, Lord
if You lead me
I will hold Your people in my heart

Responsorial Psalm | Ps. 138 Lord, Your Love Is Eternal

Lord, your love is eternal; do not forsake the work of your hands.

R./ Lord, your love is eternal; do not forsake the work of your hands.

I will give thanks to you, O LORD, with all my heart,
for you have heard the words of my mouth;
in the presence of the angels I will sing your praise;
I will worship at your holy temple.

R./ Lord, your love is eternal; do not forsake the work of your hands.

I will give thanks to your name,
because of your kindness and your truth:
When I called, you answered me;
you built up strength within me.

R./ Lord, your love is eternal; do not forsake the work of your hands.

The LORD is exalted, yet the lowly he sees,
and the proud he knows from afar.
Your kindness, O LORD, endures forever;
forsake not the work of your hands.

R./ Lord, your love is eternal; do not forsake the work of your hands.

Communion | Pescador de Hombres

Tu has venido a la orilla
no has buscado ni a sabios ni a ricos
tan solo quieres que yo te siga

Senor, me has mirado a los ojos
sonriendo has dicho mi nombre
en la arena he dejado mi barca
junto a ti buscare otro mar

Tu sabes bien lo que tengo
en mi barca no hay oro ni espadas
tan solo quiera seguir amando

Senor, me has mirado a los ojos
sonriendo has dicho mi nombre
en la arena he dejado mi barca
junto a ti buscare otro mar

Tu necesitas mis manos
mi cansancio que a otros descanse
amor que quiera seguir amando

Senor, me has mirado a los ojos
sonriendo has dicho mi nombre
en la arena he dejado mi barca
junto a ti buscare otro mar

Closing | Follow Me

If you lose your life for the sake of My name
if you leave behind all fortune and fame
then My heart shall be your home
ev’ry child shall be your own
One grain falls to the ground
and a thousand are sown
Follow Me
Follow Me

I’ve called you by name
I’ve called you My friend
From now on, you’ll be fishers of men
Cast out all fear
put out in the deep
Take up your cross and follow Me

I’ve called you by name
I’ve called you My friend
From now on, you’ll be fishers of men
Cast out all fear
put out in the deep
Take up your cross and follow Me

Gathering | Gather Your People

Gather Your people, O Lord
Gather Your people, O Lord
One Bread, one Body
One Spirit of love
Gather Your people, O Lord

Preparation | All We Like Sheep

All we like sheep
have gone astray
Each of us turning our own sep’rate way
We have all sinned
and fallen short of Your glory

But Your glory is what we desire to see
And in Your presence is where
we long to be

O Lord, show us Your mercy and grace
Take us to Your holy place
Forgive our sin
and heal our land
We long to live___in Your presence once again

Communion/Closing | Heart of My God

Above my joys, beneath my sorrows
Lives a peace greater than my need
Before the dawn, beyond tomorrow
Love has been and evermore shall be

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Oh, the wonderful, merciful heart of my God
Oh, the wide, wide hope of my Savior
Oh, the wonderful, merciful heart of my God

Above my sin, beyond my wandering
Lies a grace more than I believe
And in weakest faith, beyond my seeing
Love has been and evermore shall be

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Oh, the wonderful, merciful heart of my God
Oh, the wide, wide hope of my Savior
Oh, the wonderful, merciful heart of my God
