Hymn for the Entrance Procession
Let Us Exalt His Name Together
Verse 1
At all times I will bless Him
His praise will be in my mouth
My soul makes its boast in the Lord
The humble man will hear Him
The afflicted will be glad
And join with me to magnify the LordChorus
Let us exalt His name together forever
I sought the Lord, He heard me
And delivered me from my fears
Let us exalt His name together forever
Oh, sing His praises magnify the LordVerse 2
The angel of the Lord encamps
'Round those who fear His name
To save them and deliver them from harm
Though lions roar with hunger
We lack of no good thing
No wonder then we praise Him with our songChorus
Let us exalt His name together forever
I sought the Lord, He heard me
And delivered me from my fears
Let us exalt His name together forever
Oh, sing His praises magnify the LordVerse 3
Come children now and hear me
If you would see long life
Just keep your lips from wickedness and lies
Do good and turn from evil
Seek peace instead of strife
Love righteousness and God will hear You cryFinal Chorus
Let us exalt His name together forever
I sought the Lord, He heard me
And delivered me from my fears
Let us exalt His name together forever
Oh, sing His praises magnify the Lord
Oh, sing His praises magnify the Lord

In Bread We Bring You, Lord
Verse 1
In bread we bring you, Lord,
our bodies' labour.
In wine we offer you
our spirits' grief.
We do not ask you, Lord,
who is my neighbour?
But stand united now,
one in belief.Oh we have gladly heard
your Word, your holy Word,
and now in answer, Lord,
our gifts we bring.Our selfish hearts make true,
our failing faith renew,
our lives belong to you,
our Lord and King.Verse 2
The bread we offer you
is blessed and broken,
and it becomes for us
our spirits' food.
Over the cup we bring
your Word is spoken;
make it your gift to us,
your healing blood.Take all that daily toil
plants in our heart's poor soil
take all we start and spoil,
each hopeful dream.The chances we have missed
the graces we resist,
Lord, in your Eucharist,
take and redeem.

Recessional Hymn
Jesus, Keep Me Near The Cross
Verse 1
Jesus, keep me near the cross;
There a precious fountain;
Free to all a healing stream
Flows from Calvary's mountain.Chorus
In the Cross, in the Cross,
Be my glory every,
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.Verse 2
Near the cross a trembling soul,
Love and mercy found me;
There the bright and morning star,
Shed its beams around me.Chorus
In the Cross, in the Cross,
Be my glory every,
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.Verse 3
Near the Cross, O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me;
Help me walk from day to day,
With its shadow o'er me.Chorus
In the Cross, in the Cross,
Be my glory every,
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.Verse 4
Near the Cross I'll watch and wait,
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand,
Just beyond the river.Chorus
In the Cross, in the Cross,
Be my glory every,
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.
