Lord, We Gather Today

Lord, we gather today

In Your House, we kneel down and pray
We ask for Your mercy as we open our hearts
To receive your forgiveness, O Lord

Lord, we lift up to You

All these gifts, we offer for Your glory
We will eat this living Bread, we will drink this saving Cup
And feel Your presence, O Lord

As we offer this bread and as we bring You this wine

Bless them, Lord Jesus, feed us now, give us life
Send us Your Spirit, the Source of our lives
And together we will serve You with love

Communion Songs

You Raise Me Up

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary

When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me

You raise me up so I can stand on mountains

You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be

There is no life, no life without it's hunger

Each restless heart beats so imperfectly
But when you come and I am filled with wonder
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity

Go Now in Peace

Go now in peace, never be afraid

God will go with you each hour of every day
Go now in faith, steadfast, strong and true
Know He will guide you in all you do

Go now in love, and show you believe

Reach out to others so all the world can see
God will be there watching from above
Go now in peace, in faith, and in love
Amen, amen, amen!
You and I

You and I will travel far together

We'll pursue our little star together
We'll be happy as we are together
We may never get to heaven
But it's heaven at least to try

You and I are going on together

NFPS BACCALAUREATE MASS 2017 4
Till the time we have is gone together
Watch the evening growing on together
Growing older growing closer
Making memories that light the sky

That only time can make, that only love can make
That only we can make, you and I

Recessional Hymns

Give Thanks to the Lord

Give thanks to the Lord and exalt His Name

Give thanks to the Lord, let us sing songs of praise
Shout with one voice and proclaim His words
Give thanks to the Lord all our days

Sing Hallelujah! Sing your song!

Rejoice and be glad, let us dance with joy
For Christ is our Lord, our Savior and King
Give thanks to the Lord for He is our God
Give thanks to the Lord all our days
Give thanks!

Fill the World with Love

In the morning of my life I shall look to the sunrise

At a moment in my life when the world is new
And the blessing I shall ask is that God will grant me
To be brave and strong and true
And to fill the world with love my whole life through

And to fill the world with love (3x)

My whole life through

In the noontime of my life I shall look to the sunshine

At a moment in my life when the sky is blue
And the blessing I shall ask shall remain unchanging
To be brave and strong and true
And to fill the world with love my whole life through

In the evening of my life I shall look to the sunset

At a moment in my life when the night is due
And the question I shall ask only I can answer
Was I brave and strong and true?
Did I fill the world with love my whole life through?
