Hymns for the Mass

Entrance Hymn

Song of A Young Prophet

Refrain
Oh the Word of my Lord,
Deep within my being.
Oh the Word of my Lord,
You have filled my mind.
Verse 1
Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you thru and thru
I chose you to be mine before you left your mother’s side
I called to you my child to be my sign.
Verse 2
I know that you are very young, but I will make you strong
I will fill you with my word, and you will travel through the land
Fulfilling my command, which you have learned.

Offertory Hymn

As the deer

Verse 1
As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after thee
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship thee
Refrain
You alone are my strength, my shield
To you alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship you
Verse 2
You’re my friend and you are my brother
Even though You are a king
I love You more than any other
So much more than anything

Communion Hymn

When I Look Into Your Holiness

Verse 1
When I look into Your holiness
When I gaze into Your loveliness
When all things that surround become shadows
In the light of You
When I've found the joy of reaching Your heart
When my will becomes enthroned in Your love
When all things that surround become shadows
In the light of You
Refrain
I worship You
I worship You
The reason I live
I worship You
I worship You
The reason I live is to worship You

Recessional Hymn

Christ be beside me

Verse 1
Christ be beside me,
Christ be before me,
Christ be behind me,
King of my heart;
Christ be within me,
Christ be below me,
Christ be above me
never to part.
Verse 2
Christ on my right hand,
Christ on my left hand,
Christ all around me
shield in the strife;
Christ in my sleeping,
Christ in my sitting,
Christ in my rising
light of my life.
