kept the folded grave clothes where Thy body lay.
Refrain:
Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son,
Endless is the vict'ry, thou o'er death hast won.
2. Lo! Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
Lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
let the Church with gladness, hymns of triumph sing;
for her Lord now liveth, death hath lost its sting. (Refrain)

life is naught without thee; aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors, through Thy deathless love:

This is my body broken for you
bringing you wholeness, making you free
Take it and eat it and when you do
Do it in love for me.
This is my blood poured out for you
bringing forgiveness, making you free
Take it and eat it and when you do
do it in love for me.
Back to my Father soon I shall go
Do not forget me, then you will see
I am still with you, and you will know
you're very close to me.
Filled with my Spirit, how you will grow
You are my branches, I am the tree
If you are faithful, others will know
you are alive in me.
Love one another - I have loved you
and I have shown you how to be free
serve one another, and when you do
do it in love for me.
954 Blest be the Lord
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JhlClYN_sA
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYFH-71Wy5Y
Chorus:
Blest be the Lord; blest be the Lord,
The God of mercy, the God who saves.
I shall not fear the dark of night,
Nor the arrow that flies by day.
He will release me from the nets of all my foes,
He will protect me from their wicked hands,
Beneath the shadow of His wings I will rejoice,
To find a dwelling place secure.
I need not shrink before the terrors of the night,
Nor stand alone before the light of day.
No harm shall come to me,
No arrow strike me down,
No evil settle in my soul.
Although a thousand strong have fallen at my side,
I'll not be shaken with the Lord at hand.
His faithful love is all the armour that I need
To wage my battle with the foe.
For the Veneration of the Picture:

He is King, He is King.
He has risen from the dead
And He is King.
Ev’ry knee shall bow,
Ev’ry tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is King.
He is love, He is love.
He has risen from the dead
And He is love.
Ev’ry knee shall bow,
Ev’ry tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is love.
871 Lord, You have come to the seashore
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHIKyh9foEs
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APKvYvGPEmU
Lord, You have come to the seashore
Neither searching for the rich nor the wise
desiring only that I should follow.
Refrain:
O Lord, with Your eyes set upon me,
gently smiling, You have spoken my name;
All I longed for I have found by the water.
At your side, I will seek other shores.
Lord, see my goods, my possessions;
in my boat you find no power, no wealth
Will you accept then my nets and labour? (Refrain)
Lord, take my hands and direct them
Help me spend myself in seeking the lost
returning love for the love you gave me. (Refrain)
Lord, as I drift on the waters
be the resting place of my restful heart
my life's companion, my friend and refuge (Refrain)
Sweet Heart of Jesus
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MdYg62EtD0
Sweet heart of Jesus, fount of love and mercy,
today we come, thy blessing to implore;
O touch our hearts, so cold and so ungrateful,
and make them, Lord, thine own for evermore.
Refrain:
Sweet heart of Jesus, we implore,
O make us love thee more and more.
Sweet heart of Jesus, make us know and love thee,
unfold to us the treasures of thy grace;
that so our hearts, from things of earth uplifted,
may long alone to gaze upon thy face.
Sweet heart of Jesus, make us pure and gentle,
And teach us how to do thy blessed will;
to follow close the print of thy dear footsteps,
and when we fall - sweet heart, oh, love us still.
Sweet heart of Jesus, bless all hearts that love thee,
and may thine own heart ever blessed be,
bless us, dear Lord, and bless the friends we cherish,
and keep us true to Mary and to thee.

http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=Yb8xYHkhu4Q
http://www.mycatholicvoice.com/media/KVZl0b (fragment only)
We walk by faith, and not by sight;
no gracious words we hear
of Him who spoke as none e'er spoke;
but we believe Him near.
We may not touch his hands and side,
nor follow where he trod;
yet in his promise we rejoice;
and cry, "My Lord and God!"
Help then, O Lord, our unbelief;
and may our faith abound,
to call on you when you are near,
and seek where you are found:
that, when our life of faith is done,
in realms of clearer light
we may behold you as you are,
with full and endless sight.
We walk by faith, and not by sight;
no gracious words we hear
of Him who spoke as none e'er spoke;
but we believe Him near.

803 Love is His word

Love is His word, Love is His way,
Feasting with kin, fasting alone,
Living and dying, rising again
Love only love is His way.
Refrain:
Richer than gold
Is the love of my Lord.
Better than splendour and wealth.
Love is His way, love is His mark,
Sharing His last Passover feast.
Christ at the table, host to the Twelve
Love, only love, is His mark.
Love is his mark, love is His sign,
Bread for our strength,
wine for our joy,
This is my body, this is my blood
Love, only love is His sign.
Love is His law, Love is His word,
Love of the Lord, Father, and Word,
Love of the Spirit, God ever one,
Love, only love, is His word.

Love is His name, love is His law,
Hear His command, all who are His,
Love one another, I have loved you
Love, only love, is His law.
216 By the Waters of Babylon
(in between verse readings)
By the waters, the waters of Babylon,
we sat down and wept,
and wept for thee Zion
we remember thee, remember thee,
remember thee, Zion
On the willows, the willows of Babylon,
we hung up our harps our harps
for thee Zion
how can we sing, can we sing,
sing of thee, Zion,
There our captors, our captors from Babylon,
tried to make us sing, of thee Zion
but we could not sing,
we could not sing, we could not sing,
we could not sing Zion.
(repeat from beginning, but as a round song.
Girls sing first, boys/men will follow)
924 Servant Song
Brother, sister, let me serve you
Let me be as Christ to you;
Pray that I may have the grace
To let you be my servant, too.
We are pilgrims on a journey
We are trav'llers on the road;
We are here to help each other
Walk the mile and bear the load
I will weep when you are weeping;
When you laugh I'll laugh with you.
I will share your joy and sorrow
Till we've seen this journey through.
When we sing to God in heaven
We shall find such harmony,
Born of all we've known together
Of Christ's love and agony.
Brother, sister, let me serve you
Let me be as Christ to you;
Pray that I may have the grace
To let you be my servant, too.
627 This is my body
(not exactly correct versions according to our sheet music, but better than nothing...)
This is my body broken for you
bringing you wholeness, making you free
Take it and eat it and when you do
Do it in love for me.
This is my blood poured out for you
bringing forgiveness, making you free
Take it and drink it, and when you do
do it in love for me.
Love one another - I have loved you
and I have shown you how to be free
serve one another, and when you do
do it in love for me.

if you have love one for another.
A new commandment I give unto you,
That you love one another as I have loved you,
That you love one another as I have loved you.

GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE: (10 a.m.)
Entrance: How deep the Father's love for us
Readings: 225 Were You There
Veneration of the Cross - by the Ghanian Choir
---------------
Entrance: How deep the Father's love for us
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory.
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers.
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished.
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished.
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom.
But I will boast inJesus Christ
His death and resurrection.
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer.
But this I know with all my heart

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.

How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed. (refrain)

'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home. (refrain)

His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures. (refrain)

PASSION SUNDAY:
Could everyone please arrive at 10 am and be aware there will be some parking restrictions.

We will have a quick rehearsal in the church and then go outside for the Palm procession.

Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Hark all the tribes 'hosanna' cry
Thine humble beast pursues his road
With palms and scattered garments strowed
Ride on, ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die!
O Christ, Thy triumphs now begin
O'er captive death and conquered sin
Ride on, ride on, in majesty!
The winged squadrons of the sky
Look down with sad and wondering eyes
To see the approaching Sacrifice.
Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh
The Father on His sapphire throne
Expects His own anointed Son.
Ride on, ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die!
Bow Thy meek head to mortal pain
Then take, O God, Thy power, and reign.

752 My Song is love unknown
My song is love unknown,
My Saviour’s love to me;
Love to the loveless shown,
That they might lovely be.
O who am I, that for my sake
My Lord should take, frail flesh and die?
He came from His blest throne
Salvation to bestow;
But men made strange, and none
The longed for Christ would know:
But O! my Friend, my Friend indeed,
Who at my need His life did spend.
Sometimes they strew His way,
and His sweet praises sing;
Resounding all the day
Hosannas to their King:
Then “Crucify!” is all their breath, and for His death they thirst and cry.
Why, what hath my Lord done?
What makes this rage and spite?
He made the lame to run,
He gave the blind their sight,
Sweet injuries! Yet they at these
Themselves displease, and ’gainst Him rise.
They rise and needs will have
My dear Lord made away;
A murderer they saved,
The Prince of life they slay,
Yet cheerful He to suffering goes,
That He His foes from thence might free.
In life, no house, no home
My Lord on earth might have;
In death no friendly tomb
But what a stranger gave.
What may I say? Heav’n was His home;
But mine the tomb wherein He lay.
Here might I stay and sing,
No story so divine;
Never was love, dear King!
Never was grief like Thine.
This is my Friend, in Whose sweet praise
I all my days could gladly spend.
