Go The Mass Is Ended

GO THE MASS IS ENDED

By: Marie Lydia Pereira

                        I

Go, the Mass is ended, children of the Lord.

Take his Word to others.

As you’ve heard it spoken to you

Go the Mass is ended, go and tell the world

The Lord is good, the Lord is kind,

And He loves everyone.

                        II
Go, the Mass is ended, take his love to all

Gladden all who meet you

Fill their hearts with hope and courage.

Go the Mass is ended, fill the world with love,

And gave to all what you’ve received

The peace and joy of Christ.

                       III

Go, the Mass is ended, strengthened in the Lord,

Lighten ev’ry burden,

Spread the joy of Christ around you

Go, the Mass is ended, take his peace to all.

This day is yours to change the world

To make God known and loved.

GOD FORGAVE MY SIN

By:  Carol Owens

God forgave my sin in Jesus’ name.

I’ve been born again in Jesus name.

And in Jesus name I come to you

To share his love as he told me to.

Freely, freely give. Go in my name and

because you believe, others will know that I live.

All pow’r is giv’n in Jesus’ name,

In earth and heav’n in Jesus’ name.

To share his pow’r as he told me to.

God gives us life in Jesus’ name

He lives in us in Jesus’ name

And in Jesus’ name I come to you

To share his peace as he told me to.

Gifts of Bread and Wine

GIFTS OF BREAD AND WINE

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 in this bread and wine.

One in union with the Son.

For God’s people, joined in prayer.

Faith is strengthened by the food we share.

Christ Be Beside Me

CHRIST BE BESIDE ME

Traditional Gaelic melody

Christ be behind me, King of my heart.

Christ be within me, Christ be below me,

Christ be above me, never to part.

Christ on my right hand, Christ on my left hand,

Christ all around me, shield in the strife.

Christ in my sleeping, Christ in my sitting,

Christ in my rising, light of my life.

Christ be in all hearts, thinking about me.

Christ be on all tongues, telling of me.

Christ be the vision in eyes that see me,

in ears that hear me, Christ ever be.

City of God

CITY OF GOD

By: Dan Schutte, S.J.

Based on Isaiah 9:60; John 1

                        I

Awake from your slumber! Arise from your sleep!

A new day is downing, for all those who weep.

The people in darkness, have seen a great light.

The Lord of our longing has conquered the night.

Refrain:

Let us build the city of God. 

May our tears be turned into dancing!

For the Lord, our light and our love,

Has turned the night into day!

                                   II

We are sons of the morning; we daughters of day,

The One who has loved us, has brightened our way.

The Lord of all kindness has called us to be

A light for his people  to set their hearts free.  (Refrain)

                                   III

God is Light; in Him there is no darkness.

Let us walk in his light,  His children, one and all.

Solo:

O comfort my people; make gentle your words,

Proclaim to my city the day of her birth.   (Refrain)

                                   IV

O city of gladness, now lift up you voice!

Proclaim the good tidings, that all may rejoice!  (Refrain)
