Entrance Hymn: Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise
Hail the day that sees him rise, Alleluia! to his throne beyond the skies. Alleluia! Christ, the Lamb for sinners given, Alleluia! enters now the highest heaven. Alleluia!
There for him high triumph waits; Alleluia! lift your heads, eternal gates. Alleluia! He has conquered death and sin; Alleluia! take the King of glory in. Alleluia!
Highest heaven its Lord receives; Alleluia! yet he loves the earth he leaves. Alleluia! Though returning to his throne, Alleluia! still he calls the world his own. Alleluia!
See he lifts his hands above. Alleluia! See he shows the wounds of love. Alleluia! Hark his gracious lips bestow, Alleluia! Blessings on his church below. Alleluia!

Communion Hymn: Eye Has Not Seen
(Refrain)Eye has not seen, ear has not heard what God has ready for those who love him; Spirit of love, come, give us the mind of Jesus, teach us the wisdom of God.
When pain and sorrow weigh us down, be near to us, O Lord, forgive the weakness of our faith, and bear us up within your peaceful word. (To refrain)
Our lives are but a single breath, we flower and we fade, yet all our days are in your hands, so we return in love what love has made. (To refrain)
To those who see with eyes of faith, the Lord is ever near, reflected in the faces of all the poor and lowly of the world. (To refrain)
Recessional Hymn: The Day of Resurrection
The day of resurrection! Earth, spread the news abroad; The Paschal feast of gladness, The Paschal feast of God. From death to life eternal, From earth to heaven’s height
Our Savior Christ has brought us the glorious Lord of light.
Our hearts be free from evil that we may see aright the Savior resurrected in his eternal light, and hear his message plainly, delivered calm and clear: “Rejoice with me in triumph, be glad and do not fear”.
His love is everlasting: his mercies never cease; the resurrected Savior, will all our joys increase. He’ll keep us in his favor, supplying holy grace, to all his pilgrim people who seek his heavenly place
