As people gather

Entrance 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.

T'was grace that taught my heart to fear. And grace, my fears relieved.

How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come;

'Tis grace that brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me home.

When we've been here ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun.

We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we've first begun.

Welcome

Fr Michael McCabe

Communion Hymn Hear O Lord

Hear, O Lord, the sound of my call; Hear, O Lord, and have mercy.

My soul is longing for the glory of you. O hear, O Lord, and answer me.

For the Lord is my light and strength, So whom have I to fear?

He watches o'er my life below, In Him alone I trust.

Hear, O Lord, the sound of my call ...

One thing I ask of you, O Lord, Just one thing I implore,

To live all my days in the house of the Lord, To be at peace with you.

Hear, O Lord, the sound of my call …

Now my head is raised on high I sing and make music for him,

And so I offer in his tent A sacrifice of joy.

Hear, O Lord, the sound of my call …
