SEVENTH SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST
OPENING HYMN: AMAZING GRACE
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
Through many dangers, toils and snare
I have already come.
'tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
RESPONSORIAL PSALM:
R. Your law, O Lord, is a light to our eyes.
GOSPEL ACCLAMATION
Alleluia
Men will come from east and west,
and from north and south,
and sit at tables in the kingdom of God.
Alleluia
COMMUNION HYMN: RAIN DOWN
Rain down Rain down,
Rain down your love on your people
Rain down Rain down,
Rain down your love, God of life
Faithful and true is the Word of our God
All of God′s works are so worthy of trust
God's mercy falls on the just and the right
Full of God′s love is the earth. CHORUS
We who revere and find hope in our God
Live in the kindness and joy of God's wing
God will protect us from darkness and death
God will not leave us to starve. CHORUS
God of creation, we long for Your truth
You are the water of life that we thirst
Grant that Your love and peace touch our hearts
All of our hope lies in You. CHORUS
CLOSING HYMN: SALVE REGINA
Salve, Regina, mater misericordiae;
Vita, dulcedo et spes nostra salve.
Ad te clamamus, exsules filii Hevae.
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia ergo, advocata nostra,
illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.
Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Virgo Maria.
