Gathering | I Am the Way
Do not let your hearts be troubled
You have faith in God
Have faith also in me
In my Father’s house
There are many dwelling places
If there were not
Would I have told you so
And where I am going
You know the way
Thomas said, “How can we know the way”
“I am the Way,
And I am the Truth
And I am the Life,”
Says the Lord
Says the Lord
Do you not believe
that I am in the Father
And that the Father is dwelling in Me
The words that I speak to you
I do not speak on my oawn
But the Father is speaking through me
“Amen, I say to you
If you believe in Me
What you ask in my name I will do”
“I am the Way,
And I am the Truth
And I am the Life,”
Says the Lord
Says the Lord
Responsorial Psalm | Ps. 23 The Lord Is My Shepherd
(Start at 4:39)
The Lord is my shepherd
There is nothing I shall want
R./ The Lord is my shepherd
There is nothing I shall want
He lets me rest
In open fields so green
He leads me to the quiet streams
He gives me strength and guides me in His ways
He renews His promises each day
R./ The Lord is my shepherd
There is nothing I shall want
Repeat
He is my guide
My shepherd and my king
And in my fear, He offers peace
Though I walk through the valley
I will not be afraid
You will protect me; I’ll be saved
R./ The Lord is my shepherd
There is nothing I shall want
Repeat
You set a table before me
My cup overflows
Goodness and love will follow me
Ev’ry where I go
R./ The Lord is my shepherd
There is nothing I shall want
Repeat
I shall not want
I shall not want
Preparation of the Gifts | I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say
I heard the voice of Jesus say
“Come unto Me and rest;
Lay down, O weary one, lay down
your head upon My breast”
I came to Jesus as I was
So weary, worn, and sad
I found Him in a resting place
And He has made me glad
I heard the voice of Jesus say
“Behold, I freely give
the living water; thirsty one;
Stoop down, and drink, and live”
I came to Jesus, and I drank
of that life giving stream
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived
And now I live in Him
I will rest,
I will rest in,
I will rest in You
I heard the voice of Jesus say
“I am this dark world’s light;
Look unto Me, your morn shall rise
and all your day be bright”
I looked to Jesus, and I found
in Him my star, my sun
And in that light of life, I’ll walk
’til traveling days are done
I will rest,
I will rest in,
I will rest in You

Closing | Go In Peace
There will be no more darkness
There is no more night, no more night
There will be no more sadness
Only joy and light, joy and light
Lift your eyes beyond the hills
And see the dawn
There is beautiful mercy
In the arms of the Holy One.
Go in peace, God be with you,
Go in peace, be at rest
With the saints and the angels
Now you are free
Go in peace.
Go in peace, God be with you,
Go in peace, be at rest
With the saints and the angels
Now you are free
Go in peace.
