Friday Mass Hymns

Opening Hymn - Cleanse Me 

Search me, O God,
And know my heart today;
Try me, O Savior,
Know my thoughts, I pray.
See if there be
Some wicked way in me;
Cleanse me from every sin
And set me free.

I praise Thee, Lord,
For cleansing me from sin;
Fulfill Thy Word,
And make me pure within.
Fill me with fire
Where once I burned with shame;
Grant my desire
To magnify Thy Name.

Lord, take my life,
And make it wholly Thine;
Fill my poor heart
With Thy great love divine.
Take all my will,
My passion, self and pride;I now surrender, Lord
In me abide.

Entrance Hymn - O Lord Hear My Prayer 

O Lord, hear my prayer, (x2)
when I call answer me.

O Lord, hear my prayer, (x2)
come and listen to me.

Offertory Hymn - The Lord Is My Light 

The Lord is my light, my help, my salvation.
Why should I fear? With God I fear no one.
God protects me all my life.
With the Lord what should I dread?

Refrain
The Lord is my light, the Lord is my help,
the Lord is my salvation

There is one thing I ask of the Lord that I long
for: all of my days with God to be dwelling,
gazing with awe at the beauty of God, and in
wonder look on God’s house. Refrain

I know I will live to see the Lord’s goodness,
now, in this life. I’m sure I will see it. Trust in
the Lord, be strong and be brave; wait in hope
for God, our salvation. Refrain

Communion Hymn - The Supper of the Lord 

Precious body precious blood
Here in bread and wine
Here the Lord prepares the feast divine
Bread of love is broken now
Cup of life is poured
Come share the supper of the Lord

This is the bread of God
Coming down from heaven
Giving life to us, to all the world

Precious body precious blood
Here in bread and wine
Here the Lord prepares the feast divine
Bread of love is broken now
Cup of life is poured
Come share the supper of the Lord

I am the living spring of eternal life
You that drink from me shall not thirst again

Precious body precious blood
Here in bread and wine
Here the Lord prepares the feast divine
Bread of love is broken now
Cup of life is poured
Come share the supper of the Lord

I am the bread of heav'n giving life to you
You that eat this bread shall never die.

Precious body precious blood
Here in bread and wine
Here the Lord prepares the feast divine
Bread of love is broken now
Cup of life is poured
Come share the supper of the Lord

All those who feed on me
Have their life in me
As I have my life in the living God

Precious body precious blood
Here in bread and wine
Here the Lord prepares the feast divine
Bread of love is broken now
Cup of life is poured
Come share the supper of the Lord

All praise to you, O Christ, present in this feast, in this
bread we share in one life, one Lord.

Precious body precious blood
Here in bread and wine
Here the Lord prepares the feast divine
Bread of love is broken now
Cup of life is poured
Come share the supper of the Lord

Recessional Hymn - Change My Heart

Refrain
Change our hearts this time, your word says it can be.
Change our minds this time, your life could make us free.
We are the people your call sets apart.
Lord, this time change our hearts.

Verse 1
Brought by your hand to the edge of our dreams,
one foot in paradise, one in the waste.
Drawn by your promises, still we are lured
by the shadows and the chains we leave behind. But

Refrain

Verse 2
Now as we watch you stretch out your hands,
offering abundances, fullness of joy,
your milk and honey seem distant, unreal,
when we have bread and water in our hands. But

Refrain

Verse 3
Show us the way that leads to your side,
over the mountains and sands of the soul.
Be for us manna, water from stone,
light which says we never walk alone. And

Refrain

This time change our hearts
This time change our minds
This time change our hearts
Change our hearts
