Entrance 644 Alleluia, sing to Jesus

Alleluia! sing to Jesus! His the sceptre, 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 has 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, Thou on earth our food, our 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 Thy footstool, Heav’n Thy throne:
Thou within the veil hast entered, robed in flesh our great High Priest;
Thou on earth both priest and victim in the Eucharistic feast.

Gloria: Psallite

Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to people
of good will.
We praise you,
we bless you,
we adore you,
we glorify you,
we give you thanks for your great glory,
Lord God, heavenly King,
O God, almighty Father.

Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son,
Lord God, Lamb of God,
Son of the Father,
you take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us;
you take away the sins of the world,
receive our prayer;
you are seated at the right hand
of the Father,
have mercy on us.

For you alone are the Holy One,
you alone are the Lord,
you alone are the Most High,
Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit,
in the glory of God the Father.
Amen.


Gospel: 710 Celtic Alleluia

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

Offertory: 601 Praise to the Lord (offertory)
(same key as Laudate) https://youtu.be/U-3d2QZ2rPE

Praise to the Lord, the almighty, the King of creation;
O my soul, praise him, for he is your health and salvation;
All you who hear, now to his altar draw near,
Join in profound adoration.

Praise to the Lord, let us offer our gifts at his altar;
let not our sins and transgressions now cause us to falter.
Christ, the High Priest, bids us all join in his feast.
Gathered with him at the altar.

Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in us adore him!
All that has life and breath, come now in praises before him!
Let the Amen sound from his people again:
now as we worship before him.

Sanctus: 570 Gathering Mass

Holy, Holy, Holy Lord,
Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth, Heaven and earth
are full of your glory, Lord God of hosts.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.

Blessed, blessed is he who comes,
Blessed, blessed is he who comes,
Blessed is he, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest

Proclamation: When we eat (Missal tone)

When we eat this Bread and drink this Cup,
we proclaim your Death, O Lord,
until you come again.

Great Amen: Missal Tone

Agnus Dei: English Plainchant

Communion 1: 761 He is Lord, he is Lord 
(I'll try to split out the harmonies.  I just made them up when I recorded this!)
 
He is Lord, He is Lord.
He has risen from the dead
And He is Lord.
Ev’ry knee shall bow,
Ev’ry tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord.

He is King, He is King.
He has risen from the dead
And He is King.
Ev’ry knee shall bow,
Ev’ry tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is King.

He is love, He is love.
He has risen from the dead
And He is love.
Ev’ry knee shall bow,
Ev’ry tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is love.

Communion 2: 321 Crown him with many crowns

Crown him with many crowns, 
the Lamb upon his throne.
Hark! How the heavenly anthem drowns 
all music but its own.
Awake, my soul, and sing of him 
who died for thee,
and hail him as thy matchless King 
through all eternity.

Crown him the virgin's Son, 
the God incarnate born,
whose arm those crimson trophies won 
which now His brow adorn;
fruit of the mystic rose, 
as of that rose the stem;
the root whence mercy ever flows, 
the Babe of Bethlehem.

Crown him the Lord of love.
Behold his hands and side,
Rich wounds, yet visible above,
In beauty glorified.
No angels in the sky
Can fully bear that sight,
But downward bend their burning eyes
At mysteries so bright.

Crown him the Lord of peace, 
whose power a sceptre sways
from pole to pole, that wars may cease, 
and all be prayer and praise.
his reign shall know no end, 
and round his pierced feet
fair flowers of paradise extend
their fragrance ever sweet.

Crown him the Lord of Heaven, 
one with the Father known,
and the blest Spirit through him given 
from yonder triune throne:
all hail, Redeemer, hail,
for thou hast died for me;
thy praise shall never, never fail
throughout eternity.

Recessional: 287 Thine be the glory

1. Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son;
endless is the victory, thou o'er death hast won;
angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave clothes where Thy body lay.

Refrain:
Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son,
Endless is the vict'ry, thou o'er death hast won.

2. Lo, Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
let the Church with gladness, hymns of triumph sing;
for her Lord is living, death has lost its sting. (Refrain)

3. No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life;
life is naught without thee; aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors, through Thy deathless love:
bring us safe through Jordan to Thy home above. (Refrain)
