Our God Reigns
Verse 1
How lovely are the mountains at the feet of him,
Who brings good news, good news.
Announcing peace, proclaiming news of happiness:
Our God reigns; our God reigns!
Chorus
Our God reigns; our God reigns;
Our God reigns; our God reigns!

Jesus My Lord My God My All
Verse 1
Jesus, my Lord, my God, my All,
How can I love Thee as I ought?
And how revere this wondrous gift,
So far surpassing hope or thought?
Refrain
Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore;
Oh, make us love Thee more and more.
Oh, make us love Thee more and more.
Verse 2
Had I but Mary's sinless heart
To love Thee with, my dearest King,
Oh, with what bursts of fervent praise
Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing.
Communion
These Alone Are Enough
Verse 1
Take my heart, O Lord, take my hopes and dreams.
Take my mind with all its plans and schemes.
Give me nothing more than Your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
Verse 2
Take my thoughts, O Lord, and my memory.
Take my tears, my joys, my liberty.
Give me nothing more than Your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
Verse 3
I surrender, Lord, all I have and hold.
I return to You Your gifts untold.
Give me nothing more than Your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
Verse 4
When the darkness falls on my final days,
take the very breath that sang Your praise.
Give me nothing more than Your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
Verse 5
For You created me and shaped me
Gave me life within my mother's womb
For the wonder of who I am, I praise You
Safe in Your hands, all creation is made new

Salve Regina
Lyrics
Salve, Regina, mater misericordiae;
Vita, dulcedo et spes nostra salve.
Ad te clamamus, exsules filii Hevae.
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia ergo, advocata nostra,
illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.
Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Virgo Maria.
