Hymns for the Mass

Entrance Hymn

The Living God

Verse 1
Sing praises to the living God, Glory Alleluia.
Come, adore the living God, Glory Alleluia.
Though sun and moon may pass away, His word will ever stay.
His power is for evermore, Glory Alleluia.
Chorus
Glory to the Trinity,
The undivided unity,
The Father, son, and Spirit one,
From whom all life and goodness come.

Offertory Hymn

Love is His Word

Verse 1
Love is his word, love is his way,
feasting with men, fasting alone,
living and dying, rising again,
Love, only love, is his way.
Refrain
Richer than gold is the love of my Lord:
better than splendour and wealth.
Verse 2
Love is his way, love is his mark,
sharing his last Passover feast,
Christ at his table, host to the twelve.
Love, only love, is his mark.

Communion Hymn

Be Not Afraid

Verse 1
You shall cross the barren desert
But you shall not die of thirst
You shall wander far in safety
Though you do not know the way
You shall speak your words to foreign men
And they will understand
You shall see the face of God and live
Refrain
Be not afraid
I go before you always
Come, follow me and I will give you rest
Verse 2
If you pass through raging waters in the sea
You shall not drown
If you walk amid the burning flames
You shall not be harmed
If you stand before the power of hell
And death is at your side
Know that I am with you through it all

Recessional Hymn

Freely Freely

Verse 1
God forgave my sin in Jesus’ name,
I’ve been born again in Jesus’ name;
And in Jesus’ name I come to you
To share His love as He told me to.
Refrain
He said: ‘Freely, freely, you have received,
Freely, freely give;
Go in My name, and because you believe
Others will know that I live.’
Verse 2
All power is given in Jesus’ name,
In earth and heaven in Jesus’ name;
And in Jesus’ name I come to you
To share His power as He told me to.
