Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Entrance
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.
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.

Presentation
1. Where charity and
love prevail,
There God is ever
found;
Brought here
together by Christ’s love,
By love are we
thus bound.
2. With grateful joy
and holy fear
God’s charity we
learn;
Let us with heart
and mind and soul
Now love God in
return.
3. Forgive we now
each other’s faults
As we our faults
confess;
And let us love
each other well
In Christian
holiness.
4. Let strife among
us be unknown,
Let all
contention cease;
Be God’s the
glory that we seek,
Be ours God’s
holy peace.
5. Let us recall that
in our midst
Dwells God’s
begotten Son;
As members of his
body joined,
We are in Christ
made one.
6. No race nor creed
can love exclude
If honored be
God’s name;
Our family
embraces all
Whose Father is
the same.

Communion Refrain: (Missalette #265)
Make of our hands a throne to hold the Bread of heaven,
Make of our hearts a home to hold the very wine of life.
In this myst’ry, Lord, make us one with you.

Recessional
1. "Go make of
all disciples."
We hear the call,
O Lord,
That comes from
you, our Father,
In your eternal
Word.
Inspire our ways
of learning
Through earnest,
fervent prayer,
And let our daily
living
Reveal you
ev'rywhere.
2. "Go make of
all disciples,"
Baptizing in the
name
Of Father, Son,
and Spirit--
From age to age
the same.
We call each new
disciple
To follow you, O
Lord,
Redeeming soul
and body
By water and the
Word.
