REMEMBER – SPRING FORWARD
– MOVE CLOCKS AHEAD ONE HOUR SATURDAY NIGHT!
Fourth Sunday of Lent ~
March 14, 2021
Entrance: (Verses as needed)
1. From ashes to the living font
Your Church must journey, Lord,
Baptized in grace, in grace renewed
By your most holy word.
2. Through fasting, prayer, and
charity
Your voice speaks deep within,
Returning us to ways of truth
And turning us from sin.
3. The Son of Man is lifted up,
Our eyes behold the sign:
You are God’s own beloved Son,
The source of life divine.

Psalm: Let my tongue be silenced, if ever I forget
you!
Gospel Acclamation:
Praise and honor to you, O Lord, O Lord. Praise and honor to you, Lord Jesus
Christ!
Presentation (When Fr.Connolly is the Celebrant):
1. What wondrous love is this, O my soul,
O my soul!
What wondrous love is this, O my soul!
What wondrous love is this that caused the Lord of bliss
To bear the dreadful curse for my soul, for my soul;
To bear the dreadful curse for my soul!
2. To God and to the Lamb I will sing, I
will sing;
To God and to the Lamb I will sing.
To God and to the Lamb, who is the great I AM,
While millions join the theme, I will sing, I will sing;
While millions join the theme, I will sing.
3. And when from death I'm free, I'll sing
on, I'll sing on;
And when from death I'm free, I'll sing on.
And when from death I'm free, I'll sing and joyful
be,
And through eternity I'll sing on, I'll sing on;
And through eternity I'll sing on.

Communion:
I have fixed my eyes on
your hills,
Jerusalem, my destiny!
Though I cannot see the
end for me,
I cannot turn away.
We have set our hearts
for the way;
This journey is our
destiny.
Let no one walk
alone.
The journey makes us
one.
1. Other spirits, lesser gods, have
courted me with lies.
Here among you I have found a truth which bids me rise.
2. See, I leave the past behind; a new
land calls to me.
Here among you now I find a glimpse of what might be.
3. In my thirst, you let me drink the
waters of your life.
Here among you I have met the savior, Jesus Christ.
4. All the worlds I have not seen you open
to my view.
Here among you I have found a vision, bright and new.
5. To the tombs I went to mourn the hope I
thought was gone.
Here among you I awoke to unexpected dawn.
