Worship Aid for The Twenty-Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time, October 4, 2020

Opening Hymn: Table of Plenty (Refrain) Come to the feast of heaven and earth! Come to the table of plenty! God will provide for all that we need, here at the table of plenty. O come and sit at my table where and sinners are friends. I wait to wel- come the lost and lonely to share the cup of my love. (Refrain)

Gloria 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.

Responsorial Hymn Response (Spoken): The Vineyard of the lord is the house of Israel.

Gospel Acclamation (Sung): “Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia”

Homily

Creed (spoken) I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Prayers of the Faithful Response (Spoken): Lord, Hear our prayer

Offertory (Silent Prayer)/Mass Parts (Spoken)

Communion Hymn: These Alone are Enough Take my heart, O Lord, take my hopes and dreams. Take my mind with all its plans and schemes. Give me noth- ing more than your love and grace. These alone, O God, are enough for me. 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.

Closing Prayer

CLOSING SONG: To Live with him forever We are the wheat, we are the bread; our lives we bring as offering. And as the grain, we’re crushed by trails yet bound by healing water. The fruit of vine, the work of hands, the cup of love’s endeavor: we place before the Son of Man to live with him forever.
