Gifts of bread and wine, gifts we’ve offered
Fruits of labour, fruits of love.
Taken offered, sanctified.
Blessed and broken, words of one who died.
Take my body, take my saving blood
Gifts of bread and wine, Christ our Lord.
                         
Christ our saviour, living presence here,
As he promised while on earth.
I am with you for all time,
I am with you in this bread and wine.
                           
Take my body, take my saving blood
Gifts of bread and wine, Christ our Lord.
Through the father, with the spirit,
One in union with the Son.
For God's people joined in prayer,
Faith is strengthened by the food we share.
Take my body, take my saving blood
Gifts of bread and wine, Christ our Lord.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3hkmFu1JCM

Cantor:
If you would follow me,
follow where life will lead:
Do not look for me among the dead,
For I am hidden in pain, risen in love;
There is no harvest without sowing of grain.

Refrain (all:)
All that is hidden will be made clear.
All that is dark now will be revealed.
What you have heard in the dark
proclaim in the light;
What you hear in whispers
proclaim from the housetops.

Cantor:
If you would honor me,
Honor the least of these:
You will not find me dressed in finery.
My Word cries out to be heard;
breaks through the world:
My Word is on your lips and lives in your heart.
Refrain)

Choir:
If you would speak of me,
live all your life in me.
my ways are not the ways that you would choose;

as heaven from earth:
If you believe in me my voice will be heard.

Choir:
If you would rise with me,
rise through your destiny:
do not refuse the death which brings you life,
for as the grain in the earth
must die for rebirth,
So I have planted your life deep within mine.

Your words are spirit and life, O Lord:

reviving the weary spirit.
God’s rule can be trusted: bringing us wisdom,
bringing God’s wisdom to birth.

2. God’s precepts keep us; their purpose is right.
They gladden the hearts of people.
God’s command is so clear it brings us new vision;
bringing God’s light to our eyes.

3. Living by God’s truth is holy and sure;
God’s presence is everlasting.
God’s truth is eternal, bringing us justice;
bringing God’s justice to earth.

4. God’s word is precious, desired more than gold;
worth more than we dare imagine
and, sweeter than honey, this word will feed us,
bringing fulfilment and joy.


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

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

Entrance  821  The Kingdom of God 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ol0vIgrdN5s

The kingdom of God is justice and joy;
For Jesus restores what sin would destroy
God's power and glory in Jesus we know
And here and hereafter the kingdom shall grow

The kingdom of God is mercy and grace
The captives are freed, the sinners find place
The outcast are welcomed God's banquet to share
And hope is awakened in place of despair

The kingdom of God is challenge and choice:
Believe the good news, repent and rejoice!
His love for us sinners brought Christ to his cross:
Our crisis of judgement for gain or for loss

God's kingdom is come, the gift and the goal;
In Jesus begun, in heaven made whole,
The heirs of the kingdom shall answer his call;
And all things cry 'Glory!' to God all in all.

through the action of thy priest.
Take us, too, Lord, and transform us,
be thy grace in us increased.

May our soul be pure and spotless

like the grape that forms the wine,
as we, too, become partakers
in this sacrifice divine.

pleading here for us anew.
Grant salvation to all present,
and our faith and love renew.

We plough the fields and scatter

But it is fed and watered
By God's almighty hand:
He sends the snow in winter,
The warmth to swell the grain,
The breezes and the sunshine,
And soft, refreshing rain.

Refrain:
All good gifts around us
Are sent from heaven above;
Then thank the Lord,
O thank the Lord,
For all his love.

He only is the maker
Of all things near and far;
He paints the wayside flower,
He lights the evening star;
The winds and waves obey him,
By him the birds are fed;
Much more to us, his children,
He gives our daily bread.

We thank thee then, O Father,
For all things bright and good,
The seed time and the harvest,
Our life, our health, our food.
Accept the gifts we offer
For all thy love imparts,
And what thou most desirest,
Our humble, thankful hearts.

Will you accept then my nets and labour?

Refrain:
In the Land there is a hunger,
in the land there is a need,
not for the taste of water,
not for the taste of bread.
In the Land there is a hunger,
in the land there is a need,
for the sound of the word of God
upon ev'ry word we feed

Hear, O Lord, my cry.
Day and night I call.
My soul is thirsting
for you my God. (refrain)

Your word, O Lord,
is spirit and life.
You have the words, Lord,
of everlasting life. (refrain)

Only in God
is my soul at rest.
He is my rock and my salvation. (refrain)

731  For the fruits of all creation
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMOaEI0bJmU

For the fruit of all creation, thanks be to God;
for these gifts to every nation, thanks be to God;
for the ploughing, sowing, reaping,
silent growth while we are sleeping,
future needs in earth's safekeeping, thanks be to God.

In the just reward of labour, God's will is done;
In the help we give our neighbour, God's will is done;
In our world-wide task of caring,
for the hungry and despairing,
in the harvests we are sharing, God's will is done.

For the harvests of the Spirit, thanks be to God;
For the good we all inherit, thanks be to God;
For the wonders that astound us,
for the truths that still confound us,
most of all that love has found us, thanks be to God.
