Vigil mass 2019
Augustine Choir
PART 1 – Liturgy of Light
CHRIST BE OUR LIGHT
1. Longing for light, we wait in darkness.
Longing for truth, we turn to you.
Make us your own, your holy people,
light for the world to see.
Christ, be our light! Shine in our hearts.
Shine through the darkness.
Christ, be our light!
Shine in your church gathered today.
2. Longing for peace, our world is troubled.
Longing for hope, many despair.
Your word alone has pow’r to save us.
Make us your living voice.
3. Many the gifts, many the people,
many the hearts that yearn to belong.
Let us be servants to one another,
making your kingdom come.
Exultet: Recitato by Priest/ Deacon
PART 2 - Liturgy of the Word (7 OT readings,
an Epistle and the Gospel)
1. Genesis 1-2:   The creation story
FOR THE BEAUTY OF THE EARTH
St.
1. For the beauty of the earth,
for the glory of the skies,
for the love which from our birth
over and around us lies;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.
2. For the beauty of each hour
of the day and of the night,
hill and vale, and tree and flower,
sun and moon, and stars of light;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.
3. For the joy of ear and eye,
for the heart and mind's delight,
for the mystic harmony,
linking sense to sound and sight;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.
2. Genesis 22: God tested Abraham's
willingness to offer his son
THEN SINGS MY SOUL
1. Oh Lord my God, when I in awesome
wonder,
Consider all the works thy hand has
made
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder
Thy power throughout, the universe
displayed.
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to thee
How great thou art, how great thou art! x2
Christus Resurrexit!
 Vigil mass 2019
2. When through the woods, and forest
glades I wonder
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the
tress
When I look down from lofty mountains
grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle
breeze.
3. And when I think that God his son not
sparing
Sent him to die I scarce can’t take it in.
That on the cross my burden gladly
bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin
3. Exodus 14:     Moses parting the Red
Sea so the people can escape from Egypt
– CLOSE TO THEE
Close to thee x4
1. Thou my ever lasting portion, more than
friend or life to me;
All along my pilgrim journey, savior let
me walk with thee.
2. Not for ease or worldly pleasure, nor for
fame my prayer shall be;
Gladly will I toil and suffer, only let me
walk with thee.
3. Lead me through the vale of shadows;
bear me o’er life’s fitful sea,
Then the gate of life eternal, may I enter
Lord with thee.
4. Isaiah 54:   With great love, the Lord
has taken pity on you, and will never leave
you.
St. Augustine Choir
GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS
1. Great is thy faithfulness, O God my
Father,
There is no shadow of turning with thee;
Thou changest not, thy compansions they
fail not,
As thou hast been thou forever wilt be.
Great is thy faithfulness!
Great is thy faithfulness!
Morning by norning new mercies I see
All I have needed thy hand hath provided
Great is thy faithfulness, Lord unto me.
2. Summer and winter and spring time
and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness,
To thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
5. Isaiah 55:   Come to the water, you
who are thirsty / I will make an everlasting
covenant
AS THE DEER PANTETH
1. As the deer patenth for the water
So my soul longs after you
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship you
Christus Resurrexit!
 Vigil mass 2019
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
2. I love you more than gold or silver
Only you can satisfy
I love you more than any other
So much more than anything
3. You’re my friend and you are my brother
Even though you are a King
You alone are my real joy giver
And the apple of my eye.
6. Ezekiel 36:   The nations will learn
that I am the Lord ... I shall pour clean
water over you ... I shall remove the heart
of stone and give you a heart of flesh
Meditation – HEAVEN CAME DOWN
1. O, what a wonderful, wonderful day
Day I will never forget
After I had wandered in darkness away
Jesus my savior I met
O, what a tender, compassionate friend
He met the need of my heart
Shadows dispelling, with joy I am telling
He made all the darkness depart.
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul
When at the cross the savior made me whole
My sins were washed away
And my night was turned to day
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul.
2. Born of the Spirit with life from above
Into God’s family divine
Justified fully through Calvary’s love
O, what a standing is mine
And the transaction so quickly was made
St. Augustine Choir
When as a sinner I came
Took of the offer of grace he did proffer
He saved me, Oh! Praise his dear name.
3. Now I have hope that will surely
endure
After the passing of time
I have a future in heaven for sure
There in those mansions sublime
And its because of that wonderful day
When at the cross I believed
Riches eternal and blessings supernal
From his precious hand received.
