Entrance: 793 If God is for us
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdmgC7_SCGk (Original)

ANTIPHON
If God is for us, who can be against,
If the Spirit of God has set us free.
If God is for us, who can be against,
If the Spirit of God has set us free.

1...I know that nothing in this world
Can ever take us from His love.

2... Nothing can take us from His love
Poured out in Jesus the Lord.

3... And nothing present or to come
Can ever take us from His love.

4... I know that neither death nor life
Can ever take us from His love.

BY John Foley, S.J.

Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy Lord 
Holy Lord, Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heav’n and earth are full of your glory.

When we eat this bread and drink this cup
When we eat this bread and drink this cup
We proclaim your death, O Lord 
We proclaim your death, O Lord 
We proclaim your Death until you come again.

Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world.
Have mercy on us.

Refrain:
Like a child rests in its mother's arms, so will I rest in you,
Like a child rests in its mother's arms, so will I rest in you.

My God, I am not proud
I do not look for things too great.

My God, I trust in you
You care for me, you give me peace.

O Israel, trust in God
Now and always, trust in God.


814 Blest Are They
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDLow3rQFPo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4jCsshMK3E (original)

Blest are they, the poor in spirit,
theirs is the kingdom of God.
Blest are they, full of sorrow,
they shall be consoled.

Chorus
Rejoice and be glad!
Blessed are you, holy are you!
Rejoice and be glad!
Yours is the kingdom of God!

Blest are they, the lowly ones
they shall inherit the earth.
Blest are they, who hunger and thirst,
they shall have their fill.

Blest are they who show mercy,
mercy shall be theirs.
Blest are they, the pure of heart,
they shall see God!

Blest are they who seek peace;
they are the children of God.
Blest are they who suffer in faith,
the glory of God is theirs.

Blest are you who suffer hate,
all because of me.
Rejoice and be glad,
yours is the kingdom;
shine for all to see.


Final:  970 Be Thou my vision
Robin Mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EYYbwEqDlg

(flute only)
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art.
Thou my best thought in the day and the night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light. (enter guitar strongly)

Be Thou my wisdom, be Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one. (enter violin)

Be Thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
Be Thou my armour, and be Thou my might;
Thou my soul’s shelter, and Thou my high tower:
Raise Thou me heav’nward, O Power of my power.

(a capella)
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance through all of my days;
Thou and Thou only, the first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my treasure Thou art!  (all instruments)

High King of Heaven, when battle is done,
Grant Heaven’s joys to me, O bright heaven’s sun!
Christ of my own heart, whatever befall,
still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
