Song Sheet June 28th

Entrance: Lift High the Cross

(Refrain) Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim till all the world adore his sacred name!

Led on their way by this triumphant sign, the hosts of God in conquering ranks combine. (To Refrain)

Each New-Born Soldier Of The Crucified Bears On His Brow The Seal Of Him Who Died (To Refrain)

O Lord, once lifted on the glorious tree, As thou hast promised, draw the world to thee.(To Refrain)

Offertory: For the Healing of the Nation

For the healing of the nations, Lord, we pray with one accord. For a just and equal sharing of the things that earth affords. To a life of love and action help us rise and pledge our word.

Lead us now, Lord, into freedom, from despair your world release; that redeemed from war and hatred, all may come and go in peace. Show us how through care and goodness fear will die and hope increase.

You, creator God, have written your great name on humankind; For our growing in your likeness bring the life of Christ to mind: That by our response and service Earth its destiny may find.

Communion: We are Many Parts

(Refrain) We are many parts, we are all one body. And the gifts we have we are given to share.

May the Spirit of love, make us one indeed. One, the love that we share; one, our hope in despair, one, the cross that we bear.

God of all, we look to you, we would be your servants true, let us be your love to all the world. (To Refrain)

So my pain is pain for you, in your joy is my joy too, all is brought together in the Lord! (To Refrain)

All you seekers great and small, seek the greatest gift of all if you love then you will know the Lord! (To Refrain)

Recessional: Alleluia! Sing to Jesus

Alleluia! Sing to Jesus, His the scepter, his the throne Alleluia! His the triumph, His the victory alone Hark! The songs of peaceful Zion thunder like a mighty flood Jesus out of every nation hath redeemed us by his blood.

Alleluia! Not as orphans are we left in sorrow now Alleluia! He is near us, faith believes nor questions how Though the cloud from sight received him when the forty days were o'er Shall our hearts forget his promise, I am with you evermore?

Alleluia! Bread of angels, here on earth our food and stay Alleluia! Here the sinful flee to thee from day to day Intercessor, Friend of sinners, earth's Redeemer, plead for me Where the songs of all the sinless sweep across the crystal sea.

Alleluia! King eternal, thee the Lord of Lords we own Alleluia! Born of Mary, earth your footstool, heaven your throne You within the veil have entered, robed in flesh, our great High Priest Here on earth both Priest and Victim in the Eucharistic Feast...
