Greeting & Introduction

Entrance Hymn: Lord, Who at Your First

1. Lord, who at your first Eucharist did pray That all your Church might be forever One, Help us at ev’ry Eucharist to say With longing heart and soul, “Your will be done.” Thus may we all one Bread, one Body be, Through this blest Sacrament of Unity.

2. For all your Church, O Lord, we intercede; O make our lack of charity to cease. Draw us the nearer each to each, we plead, By drawing all to You, O Prince of Peace. Thus may we all one Bread, one Body be, Through this blest Sacrament of Unity.

LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST

Preparation of the Gifts

Offertory Hymn: The Servant Song

1. Will you let me be your servant, let me be as Christ to you? ...pray that I may have the grace to let you be my servant too? 2. We are pilgrims on a journey. We are travelers on the road. We are here to help each other walk the mile and bear the load. 3. I will hold the Christ-light for you in the nighttime of your fear. I will hold my hand out to you; speak the peace you long to hear. 4. I will weep when you are weeping. When you laugh, I’ll laugh with you. I will share your joy and sorrow ‘til we’ve seen this journey through. 5. When we sing to God in heaven, we shall find such harmony, borne of all we’ve known together of Christ’s love and agony.

Priest: Pray, brothers and sisters, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father. All: May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and glory of His name, for our good and the good of all His holy Church.
