Entrance

God of Mercy and Compassion

Verse 1
God of mercy and compassion,
Look with pity upon me.
Father, let me call Thee Father,
’Tis Thy child returns to Thee.

Refrain
Jesus, Lord, I ask for mercy;
Let me not implore in vain;
All my sins—I now detest them,
Never will I sin again.

Verse 2
By my sins I have deserved
Death and endless misery;
Hell, with all its pains and torments,
And for all eternity.

May This Lowly Bread And Wine

Refrain
May this lowly bread and wine
Be the sacrifice divine
Of our Saviour Jesus Christ
Of our Saviour Jesus Christ

All man’s labour can produce
You have given for our use
Take O Lord our offering
Take O Lord, our offering

On this gift of bread and wine
Of our sacrifice a sign
Father look with favour now
Father look, with favour now

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.

Ave Regina Caelorum

Lyrics
Ave, Regina caelorum,
Ave, Domina Angelorum:
Salve, radix, salve, porta
Ex qua mundo lux est orta:Gaude, Virgo gloriosa,
Super omnes speciosa,
Vale, o valde decora,
Et pro nobis Christum exora.
