Gathering | Awake, O Sleeper
In the darkest times of life
when our lights refuse to shine
You are there
You are there
When our hearts become like stone
when we live without hope
You are there
You are there
Don’t let your hearts be troubled
Don’t let your hearts be troubled
Refrain
Awake, O sleeper
Arise from slumber
Christ is calling your name

Responsorial Psalm | Ps. 63 My Soul Is Thirsting
My soul is thirsting…
My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God.
R./ My soul is thirsting…
My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God.
O God, you are my God whom I seek;
for you my flesh pines and my soul thirsts
like the earth, parched, lifeless
and without water.
R./ My soul is thirsting…
My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God.
Thus have I gazed toward you in the sanctuary
to see your power and your glory,
For your kindness is a greater good than life;
my lips shall glorify you.
R./ My soul is thirsting…
My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God.
Thus will I bless you while I live;
lifting up my hands, I will call upon your name.
As with the riches of a banquet shall my soul be satisfied,
and with exultant lips my mouth shall praise you.
R./ My soul is thirsting…
My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God.
I will remember you upon my couch,
and through the night-watches I will meditate on you:
You are my help,
and in the shadow of your wings I shout for joy.
R./ My soul is thirsting…
My soul is thirsting for you, O Lord my God.
