http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ac3exGWA2Qw

The King of Glory comes, the nation rejoices
Open the gates before Him, lift up your voices.

Who is the King of Glory? How shall we call Him?
He is Emmanuel, the promised of ages.

In all of Galilee, in city and village
He goes among His people, curing their illness.

Sing then of David's Son, our Saviour and Brother
In all of Galilee was never another.

He gave his life for us, the pledge of salvation,
He took upon himself the sins of the nation.

He conquered sin and death; He truly has risen.
And He will share with us His heavenly vision.



Penitential rite/Lighting of the Candle: Advent Candle Song  (tune of Frere Jacques/Are you sleeping)
Are you sleeping: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1VrABqUHio


(children sing first, then repeated by adults)
Advent candle (Advent candle)
Burning slow (Burning slow)
Advent weeks of waiting (Advent weeks of waiting)
one to go (one to go)

Shepherds listening (Shepherds listening)
in the night (in the night)
will they hear the angels (will they hear the angels)
sing tonight (sing tonight)



Resp. Psalm 337  The Almighty works marvels (Magnificat) - we will sing refrain then verses by cantor (not sung ostinato)
 http://www.ocp.org/compositions/2489
Refrain:
The Almighty works marvels for me,
Holy his name, Holy his name. (repeat first time)

l. My soul glorifies the Lord.
My spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.
He looks on his servant in her lowliness;
henceforth all ages will call me blessed.

2. His mercy is from age to age;
on those who fear him, on those who fear him.
He puts forth his arm in strength
and scatters the proud-hearted;
he casts the mighty down, and raises the lowly.

3. He protects Israel, rememb'ring his mercy,
as he promised to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever
Alleluia.

Communion
83 The Benedictus
http://www.ocp.org/compositions/15554 (link might not work)
(tune of 338  My soul proclaims) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15AccZAcdpk

1. Blest be the Lord, the God of Israel,
Who brings the dawn
and darkest night dispels,
Who raises up a mighty Savior
from the earth,
Of David's line, a son of royal birth.

2. The prophets tell a story just begun
Of vanquished foe
and glorious vict'ry won,
Of promise made to all
who keep the law as guide:
God's faithful love and mercy will abide.

3. This is the oath once sworn to Abraham:
All shall be free to dwell upon the land,
Free now to praise,
unharmed by the oppressor's rod,
Holy and righteous in the sight of God.

4. And you, my child,
this day you shall be called
The promised one, the prophet of our God,
For you will go before the Lord
to clear the way,
And shepherd all into the light of day.

5. The tender love
God promised from our birth
Is soon to dawn upon this shadowed earth,
To shine on those whose sorrows
seem to never cease,
To guide our feet into the path of peace.

And to tell the world that God's kingdom is near,

in all whose cry is unheard.
