Gathering | 10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)

Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul

it’s a new day dawning
it’s time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass
and whatever lies before me
let me be singing
when the evening comes

Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I’ll worship Your Holy name

Repeat

Responsorial Psalm | Ps. 146 Praise the Lord, My Soul

Praise the Lord, my soul!
Praise the Lord, my soul!

R./ Praise the Lord, my soul!
Praise the Lord, my soul!

The God of Jacob keeps faith forever,
secures justice for the oppressed,
gives food to the hungry.
The LORD sets captives free.

R./ Praise the Lord, my soul!
Praise the Lord, my soul!

The LORD gives sight to the blind;
the LORD raises up those who were bowed down.
The LORD loves the just;
the LORD protects strangers.

The fatherless and the widow the LORD sustains,
but the way of the wicked he thwarts.
The LORD shall reign forever;
your God, O Zion, through all generations.
Alleluia.

Praise the Lord, my soul!

Preparation of the Gifts | Healer

You hold my every moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease
I trust in You, I trust in You

I believe You’re my healer
I believe You are all I need
And I believe You’re my portion
I believe You’re more than enough for me
Jesus, You’re all I need

Repeat

Communion | Goodness of God

I love You, Lord
For Your mercy never fails me
All my days, I’ve been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In the darkest night
You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a Father
I’ve known You as a Friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God

And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me

Repeat

And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God

‘Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God

Closing | A Rightful Place

Let us live our lives so that all might see
that our hearts are restless till 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 till they rest in thee
Let us build your kingdom in truth and grace
so that all might know they have a rightful place
so that all might know they have a rightful place
so that all might know they have a rightful place
