So loved by God

SO LOVED BY GOD
So loved by God are we and called to be a presence of gentleness and compassion, lifting burdens. Yes, may our hearts be free to bear with others, forgiving, reaching out to understand with love.

Freely as the Lord forgives us may we find the strength of heart, graciously, sincerely to forgive.

Joyous wonder of faith’s wholeness which within our heart does dwell: Jesus Christ, whose peace we share as one.

Teach each other Spirit’s wisdom, sing of newborn hope in life, giving thanks to God in Jesus’ name.

Trust in the Lord

TRUST IN THE LORD
(Antiphon)
Trust in the Lord,
you shall not tire.
Serve you the Lord;
you shall not weaken.
For the Lord’s’ own
strength will uphold you.
You shall renew your
life and live.

The Lord is our eternal God.
He neither faints nor grows weary.

Our hearts He probes from afar,

knowing our ways knowing, our ways.

SERVICE

Service
We are made for service to care for each other. We are made to love each sister and brother with love that will last through sorrow and pain, a love that will never die with strain.

God sent His Son to show us the way, one who shared His loved ev’ry minute of the day, One who gave his life that we might live and His Spirit to help us through the years.

Life can be so lonely when nobody cares, life can be so empty when nobody shares. But if we give ourselves both time and again the happiness of Christ will live within.

HERE WE ARE

HERE WE ARE
Here we are, all together
as we sing our song joyfully.

Here we are, joined together

as we pray we’ll always be.
Join we now as friends
and celebrate the
brotherhood we share,
all as one. Keep the
fire burning, kindle
it with care and we’ll
all join in and sing.

Let us make the world an alleluia!

Let us make the world a better place.

Keep the smile handy, have a helping hand.

Let us all join in and sing.

strong and constant

STRONG AND CONSTANT
I will be Yahweh who walks with you.
You will be always within my hand.
Take your heart and give it all to Me;
(Antiphon)
Strong and constant is My love!
Strong and constant is My love!
Should you wander far away
from Me, I will search for you
in every land. Should you call,
then you will truly know: (Ant)

PERSONS ARE GIFT

PERSONS ARE GIFTS
(1) Persons are gifts of God
to me that come all wrapped
so diff’rently: Some so loosely, others so tightly, but wrappings are not the gifts.
2) I am a gift of God to me.
Do I accept the gift I see? I am a person, and for this reason, a wonderful gift of love.

(3) Am I a gift to others, too, that must be giv’n to you and you? We
are all persons, we are all gifts, so let’s have a grand exchange of gifts!

COVENANT

COVENANT
Let me walk with you as
we journey thru this life
searching for its meaning
as each moment passes by.
Let the hand of time be like
footprints in the sand as I
carry you from the dawn
to the setting sun.

(Chorus)
With just one hand we
will travel far together one
life sharing in love.
I will hold you forever,
Yes, I love you all my life.

There‘ll be many crossroads as we walk along the way, there’ll be many questions as we live life day by day. But this will never matter if you’ll always be there. We’ll surely find the answer ‘coz we care.

Inang minamahal

Inang Minamahal
Inang minamahal, si Hesus sa iyo isinilang. Inang sinisinta, ang Diyos sa’yo nagpala. Inang minamahal, kay Hesus kami’y ‘yong ialay. Ilaan sa Kanyang Kaharian, upang Diyos ay maparangalan. Ilaan sa kanyang Kaharian, upang kapwa’y mapaglingkuran.

Inang minamahal, si Hesus aming mananakop. Inang sinisinta ng lahat mong mga anak; nawa’y ilawan mo ang landas naming tatahakin, kaligtasan namin at pag asa, tulong ng iyong panalangin. Sa harap ng aming kamatayan, O Ina kami’y ‘yong aliwain

Inang minamahal, kalingain kami’t turuan; na matularan ka, sa iyong laging paglingap. Buksan aming kamay sa ‘ming kapwang baon sa hirap: sa kanyang kalayaan ay buhay, maialay ang pagsisikap. At higit kung ito’y kailangan, katawa’t buhay man itaya.

In the breaking of the bread 🍞

In the Breaking of the Bread
In the walking of the road we saw Him. In the telling of our hopes, we saw Him. In the burning of our hearts, we saw the Lord. At the meal He took the bread and then He blessed it, broke it offered it. In the breaking of the bread.
We saw Him! Suddenly our eyes were opened, and we knew He was alive.
We set out to find His friends to tell them. We went to Jerusalem to tell them. And with joy we told them , “we have seen the Lord”! And as we were speaking there He stood among us, blessed us, said to us: “Now my peace I leave with you”.

We saw Him! Suddenly our eyes were opened, and we knew He was alive.

But then we became afraid without Him… in the darkened room we stayed without Him. Waiting for the one he said that He would send. Then the Spirit of the Lord came down upon us, filling us, changing us. Giving us the strength to say…

We saw Him! Suddenly our eyes were opened, and we knew He was alive.

We ran out into the street to tell them. Everyone that we could meet to tell them. God has raised him up and we have seen the Lord! We took bread as He has done us and then we blessed it, broke it, offered it. In the breaking of the bread.
We saw Him! Suddenly our eyes were opened, there within our midst was Jesus! And we know He is alive! In the breaking of the bread! He is here with us again. And we know He is alive. Alleluia (6x)

The Seed

THE SEED
The Bread by your hand was
once a seed ‘twas sown.
Then grew and yielded on the
ground, and gathered all for men. The wine by your cup was once a vine that crept.
It grew to bear good
fruits for men: a symbol
of your blood.

Of that seed we eat your body, our bread of life. Of that vine we drink your blood, the wine of new covenant.

Accept Lord we offer these seeds and vines of life. Expressions of our gratitude, we consecrate to you.

Awit NG Papuri

Awit ng Papuri
Purihin ninyo ang Panginoon
Dakilain ang Kanyang ngalan
Purihin Siya ay awitan
At papurihan magpakailanman

Nilikha Niya ang langit at lupa
Nilikha Niya ang araw at buwan
Nilikha Niya ang mga isda’t ibon
Mga gubat at karagatan.
Tunay Siyang banal at dakila
Purihin ang Kanyang ngalan.
Ang lahat ng nilikha Niya’y mabuti,
Pinagyaman Niya ng lubusan.

Nilikha ng Panginoon ang tao
Sa sarili Niyang larawan.
Nilalang Niya ang sangkatauhan,
Binigyan Niya ng karangalan.
Tunay siyang banal at dakila,
Purihin ang Kaniyang ngalan,
Kahit nagkasala ang tao
Minahal Niya parin ng lubusan.

Magnificat

MAGNIFICAT

Refrain: All that I am sings of the God who brings new life to birth in me.
My spirit soars on the wings of my Lord.

1. My soul gives glory to the Lord, rejoicing in my saving God,
who looks upon me in my state, and all the world will call me blest;
For God works marvels in my sight, and holy, holy is God's name.

2. God’s mercy is from age to age, on those who follow in fear;
Whose arm is power and strength, and scatters all the proud of heart;
Who casts the mighty from their thrones and raises up the lowly ones!

3. God fills the starving with good things, the rich are left with empty hands;
Protecting all the faithful ones, remembering Israel with mercy,
the promise known to those before and to their children for ever!

You Are Mine

YOU ARE MINE

I will come to you in the silence
I will lift you from all your fear
You will hear My voice
I claim you as My choice
Be still, and know I am near

I am hope for all who are hopeless
I am eyes for all who long to see
In the shadows of the night,
I will be your light
Come and rest in Me

Chorus:
Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine

I am strength for all the despairing
Healing for the ones who dwell in shame
All the blind will see, the lame will all run free
And all will know My name

I am the Word that leads all to freedom
I am the peace the world cannot give
I will call your name, embracing all your pain
Stand up, now, walk, and live

Love is the Answer

Morning comes, and I must go; day is breaking yonder. After all the places I have been, now I’m going home. I have been to seek the sky, to travel on the highway. And the time has come, I don’t know why, I’m going home.

Where is the answer to so many questions? I don’t know, so I begin another journey. Where is the meaning for my world? I see the answer now.

Though we came by diff’rent roads, now we walk together. Stay beside me all our days, strangers never more. Through the cool of summer rains, by the hearthside fire. I’ll be with you when nothing remains, I am home to stay.

Love is the answer to so many questions. Now I know, and I can stop my endless wand’ring. Love gives meaning to my world, I see the answer now. Love is the answer…. Love.

2. Kung paanong mahal Ako ng Aking Ama, sa inyo’y aking ipinadarama. Sa pag-ibig Ko kayo sana ay manahan, at bilin Ko na kayo ay magmahalan.

In My Heart

IN MY HEART
In my heart, I know
my Saviour lives;
I can hear Him calling
tenderly my name.
Over sin and death,
He has prevailed;
In His glory,
in His new life,
we partake.

I know He lives
as He has promised.
For me, He’s risen that
from fear I may be free. Not even death
can separate me
from him whose love
and might remains in me.

For I have seen
and touched Him risen,
to all the world will I
proclaim His majesty.
With joy I sing
to tell the story
that in our hearts
may live his memory.

And all the earth
shall bow before Him.
His blessed name
all will adore
on bended knee.
His truth shall reign,
so shall His justice;
In Christ our Saviour
let all glory be!
