Chorus

Sing to the mountains, sing to the sea.

Raise your voices, lift your hearts.

This is the day the Lord has made.

Let all the earth rejoice.

Verse 1

I will give thanks to you, my Lord.

You have answered my plea.

You have saved my soul from death.

You are my strength and my song.

Verse 2

Holy, holy, holy Lord.

Heaven and earth are full of your glory.

Verse 3

This is the day the Lord has made.

Let us be glad and rejoice.

Death has lost and all is life.

Sing of the glory of God.

Psalm:  145 The hand of the Lord feeds us; he answers all our needs.

I am the bread of life

You who come to Me shall not hunger

And who believe in Me shall not thirst

No one can come to Me

Unless the Father beckons

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up on the last day

The bread that I will give

Is My flesh for the life of the world

And if you eat of this bread

You shall live forever

You shall live forever

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up on the last day

I am the resurrection

I am the life

If you believe in Me

Even though you die

You shall live forever

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up on the last day

Yes Lord I believe

That You are the Christ

The Son of God

Who has come

Into the world

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up on the last day

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up

And I will raise you up on the last day

Refrain:

Now in this banquet, Christ is our bread;

Here shall all hungers be fed.

Bread that is broken, wine that is poured,

Love is the sign of our Lord.

You who have touched us and graced us with love,

make us your people of goodness and light.

Now in this banquet, Christ is our bread;

Here shall all hungers be fed.

Bread that is broken, wine that is poured,

Love is the sign of our Lord.

Let our hearts burn with the fire of your love;

open our eyes to the glory of God.

Now in this banquet, Christ is our bread;

Here shall all hungers be fed.

Bread that is broken, wine that is poured,

Love is the sign of our Lord.

God who makes the blind to see,

God who makes the lame to walk,

bring us dancing into day,

lead your people in your way.

Now in this banquet, Christ is our bread;

Here shall all hungers be fed.

Bread that is broken, wine that is poured,

Love is the sign of our Lord.

Hope for the hopeless, light for the blind,

"Strong" is your name, Lord, "Gentle" and "Kind."

Now in this banquet, Christ is our bread;

Here shall all hungers be fed.

Bread that is broken, wine that is poured,

Love is the sign of our Lord.

Call us to be your light,

call us to be your love,

make us your people again.

Now in this banquet, Christ is our bread;

Here shall all hungers be fed.

Bread that is broken, wine that is poured,

Love is the sign of our Lord.

Come, O Spirit! renew our hearts!

We shall arise to be children of light.

O taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord.

I will bless the Lord at all times.

Praise shall always be on my lips.

My soul shall glory in the Lord.

For God has been so good to me.

Taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord,

O taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord.

Glorify the Lord with me.

Together let us all praise God’s name.

I called the Lord who answered me;

From all my troubles I was set free

Taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord,

O taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord.

Worship the Lord, all you people.

You’ll want for nothing it you ask.

Taste and see that the Lord is good;

In God we need put all our trust.

Taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord,

O taste and see, taste and see the goodness of the Lord, of the Lord.

Immaculate Mary, your praises we sing.

You reign now in splendor with Jesus our King.

Predestined for Christ by eternal decree,

God willed you both virgin and mother to be.

Ave, Ave, Ave, Maria! Ave, Ave, Ave, Maria!

In Heaven the blessed thy glory proclaim;

On earth we thy children invoke thy fair name.

Ave, Ave, Ave, Maria! Ave, Ave, Ave, Maria!
