Alleluia: 178 Halle halle Halle
refrain is slighty different & words of the verse, but I imagine the verse is sung with the same melody
http://www.youtube.com/watch?
this video has the same refrain as our Laudate, but the words & melody of the verses are different. Interesting to listen to for the instrumentals & percussion, though and the male 2nd voices. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXaKJs1rP1M
Halle halle Halle –luia ( 3 times) Halle-luia halle-luia
Jesus our Good Shepherd-We follow Him ( 3 times)
He is Risen- Halle-luia
Halle halle ( 3 times) Halleluia halle-luia
-----------------------------Offertory: 423 O lord you are the centre of my life:
This is a beautiful mp3 of the song. The verses are really too high for female singers - the male soloist sounds amazing (hi Simon & the boys!).

Center of My Life
Refrain:
O Lord, you are the center of my life
I will always praise you
I will always serve you
I will always keep you in my sight
1. Keep me safe O God, I take refuge in you.
I say to the Lord "You are my God,
My happiness lies in you alone,
My happiness lies in you alone." (refrain)
2. I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel,
Who even at night directs my heart.
I keep the Lord ever in my sight
Since He is at my right I shall stand firm. (refrain)
3. And so my heart rejoices, my soul is glad
Even in safety shall my body rest
For you will not leave my soul among the dead,
Nor let your beloved know decay. (refrain)
4. You will show me the path of life,
The fullness of joy in your presence,
At your right hand, at your right hand
Happiness forever. (refrain)

559 Holy Holy: 561 acclamation: (Familiar one by Bernadette Farell)
Holy, holy, holy lord God of power,
Lord God of might, Lord God of pow'r and might
Heaven and earth are full of your glory
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest
Blessed, blessed, blessed,
blessed is he who comes in the name
Who comes in the Lord's own name!
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest

Thus may we Godward move,
Finding God in others, sisters all, and brothers: (repeat Refrain)

Rules our hearts now as then,
For He came to save us by the truth He gave us. (repeat Refrain)

Coming down, love to bring,
Pattern for our duty, showing God in beauty. (repeat Refrain)

Final hymn: 787 Sing it in the valleys
this is from Mike Anderson's website (songwriter):
pdf music sheet (with lyrics) http://www.mikeanderson.net/Sing%20it%20in%20the%20valleys.pdf
mp3 http://www.mikeanderson.net/Sing%20it%20in%20the%20valleys%20-%20my%20version.mp3
We can't really do a rock-heavy version, but we can make it interesting with some percussion (shakers, tambourine during the chorus) & with lively guitar & bass. Check this one out too:
