Gathering | Our God Is Here
Here in this time
here in this place
here we are standing face to face
Here in our hearts
here in our lives
our God is here
Here for the broken
here for the strong
here in this temple we belong
Here in our hearts
here in our lives
our God is here
And we cry, “Holy! Holy! Holy are You!”
We cry, “Holy! Holy! Holy and true!”
Amen, we do believe our God is here
Our God is here
Responsorial Psalm | Ps. 90 If Today You Hear His Voice
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
R./ If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
You turn man back to dust,
saying, “Return, O children of men.”
For a thousand years in your sight are as yesterday,
now that it is past, or as a watch of the night.
R./ If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
You make an end of them in their sleep;
the next morning they are like the changing grass,
Which at dawn springs up anew,
but by evening wilts and fades.
R./ If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain wisdom of heart.
Return, O LORD! How long?
Have pity on your servants!
R./ If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
Fill us at daybreak with your kindness,
that we may shout for joy and gladness all our days.
And may the gracious care of the LORD our God be ours;
prosper the work of our hands for us!
Prosper the work of our hands!
R./ If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

Communion | You Are My All In All
You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious fool
Lord, to give up, I’d be a fool
You are my all in all
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame
Rising again, I bless Your name
When I fall down, You pick me up
When I am dry, You fill my cup
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Repeat then modulate
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Worthy is Your name
Worthy is Your name
Reflection | Lord, Make Me An Instrument
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace
Where there is hatred, let me sow Your love
Where there is injury, let me bring pardon
And wherever there is doubt, bring faith
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace
Where there’s despairing, let me bear Your hope
Where there is darkness, may I be light
And wherever sorrow is, always joy
O Divine Master, grant that I may seek
Not to be consoled, but to console
Not to be understood, but to understand
Not to be loved, but to love
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace
For it is in giving we receive
And in forgiving, we are forgiven
And in dying we are raised to new life
Oh, wherever there is need, let Your love be
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace
Closing | Glory and Praise to Our God
Glory and praise to our God
who alone gives light to our days
Many are the blessings he bears
to those who trust in His ways
We, the daughters and sons of Him
who built the valleys and plains
praise the wonders our God has done
in ev’ry heart that sings
Glory and praise to our God
who alone gives light to our days
Many are the blessings he bears
to those who trust in His ways
