Offertory: 198 Ashes
http://www.spiritandsong.com/compositions/1392

1. We rise again from ashes,
from the good we’ve failed to do.
We rise again from ashes,
to create ourselves anew.
If all our world is ashes,
then must our lives be true,
an offering of ashes, an offering to you.

2. We offer you our failures,
we offer you attempts,
the gifts not fully given,
the dreams not fully dreamt.
Give our stumblings direction,
give our visions wider view,
an offering of ashes, an offering to you.

3. Then rise again from ashes,
let healing come to pain,
though spring has turned to winter,
and sunshine turned to rain.
The rain we’ll use for growing,
and create the world anew
from an offering of ashes, an offering to you.

4. Thanks be to the Father,
who made us like himself.
Thanks be to his Son,
who saved us by his death.
Thanks be to the Spirit
who creates the world anew
from an offering of ashes, an offering to you.

Holy Holy: Mass of light
http://youtu.be/BzuVF1rwamA (go to 5:30)

Holy, Holy, Holy,
Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth are
full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.

Blessed is he who comes in the
name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna in the highest

Memorial Acclamation: We proclaim - (Mass of Light) (go to 6:20)
http://youtu.be/BzuVF1rwamA

We proclaim your Death, O Lord,
and profess your Resurrection
until you come
until you come again.

Lamb of God (Mass of Light)
http://youtu.be/BzuVF1rwamA (go to 8:30)

Lamb of God, you take away the sins
of the world, have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sins
of the world, have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sins
of the world, grant us peace.

Communion:
206 Forty Days and Forty Nights
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSbwFBXf1yI

Forty days and forty nights
Thou wast fasting in the wild;
Forty days and forty nights
Tempted, and yet unbeguiled.

Sunbeams scorching all the day;
Chilly dew-drops nightly shed;
Prowling beasts about Thy way;
Stones Thy pillow; earth Thy bed.

Let us thy endurance share
And from earthly greed abstain,
With thee watching unto prayer,
With thee strong to suffer pain.

Then if evil on us press,
Flesh or spirit to assail,
Victor in the wilderness,
Help us not to swerve or fail

So shall peace divine be ours;
Holier gladness ours shall be;
come to us angelic powers,
Such as ministered to Thee.

Keep, O keep us, Saviour dear,
Ever constant by Thy side;
That with Thee we may appear
At the eternal Eastertide.

Final: 180  Led by the Spirit  (Bob Hurd)

1. Led by the Spirit of our God, we go to fast and pray
With Christ into the wilderness; we join his paschal way.
"Rend not your garments, rend your hearts. Turn back your lives to me."
Thus says our kind and gracious God, whose reign is liberty.

2. Led by the Spirit, we confront temptation face to face,
And know full well we must rely on God's redeeming grace.
On bread alone we cannot live, but nourished by the Word
We seek the will of God to do: this is our drink and food.

3. Led by the Spirit, now draw near the waters of rebirth
With hearts that long to worship God in spirit and in truth.
"Whoever drinks the drink I give shall never thirst again."
Thus says the Lord who died for us, our Savior, kindred friend.

4. Led by the Spirit, now sing praise to God the Trinity:
The Source of Life, the living Word made flesh to set us free,
The Spirit blowing where it will to make us friends of God:
This mystery far beyond our reach, yet near in healing love.
