PROCESSIONAL HYMN Sing of the Lord’s Goodness Sing of the Lord’s goodness, Father of all wisdom, Come to him and bless his name. Mercy he has shown us, His love is forever, Faithful to the end of days. Come, then all you nations, Sing of your Lord’s goodness, Melodies of praise and thanks to God. Ring out the Lord’s glory, Praise him with your music, Worship him and bless his name. Power he has wielded, Honour is his garment, Risen from the snares of death. His word he has spoken, One bread he has broken, New life he now gives to all. By Ernest Sands © 1981 – OCP Publications.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. OFFERTORY Unless the Grain of Wheat Unless the grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains but a single grain. Unless the grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains but a single grain, But if it dies, it springs to life; yes, if it dies it springs to life, losing itself, it yields a harvest rich in life.

Mass Parts: Excerpts from the Roman Missal © 2010 ICEL COMMUNION Like A Shepherd Like a shepherd he feeds his flock and gathers the lambs in his arms, holding them carefully close to his heart, leading them home. Say to the cities of Judah: Prepare the way of the Lord. Go to the mountain top, lift your voice: Jerusalem, here is your God. I myself will shepherd them, For others have led them astray. The lost I will rescue and heal their wounds And pasture them, giving them rest. Come unto me if you are heavily burdened, And take my yoke upon your shoulders. I will give you rest. By R. Dufford © 1976 – New Dawn Music. RECESSIONAL This Day Was Made By The Lord This day was made by the Lord, Let us rejoice, let us be glad. This day was made by the Lord, Let us rejoice in salvation! I thank you, your love is eternal, You have given me life. You have given me life. I will proclaim the wonders you do! The stone which the builders rejected Is the cornerstone, Is the cornerstone. I will proclaim the wonders you do! By C. Walker © 1988, 1989, 1990 – OCP Publications.
