SONGS FOURTH SUNDAY OF LENT
OPENING HYMN: AS THE DEER LONGS
As the deer longs for flowing streams,
so longs my soul for you, O God.
My soul does thirst for the living God,
when shall I come to see your face?
Why do I mourn and toil within,
when it is mine to hope in God?
I shall again sing praise to him.
He is my help; he is my God.
COMMUNION HYMN: WHAT WOUNDROUS LOVE
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
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
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
MEDITATION: THE THINGS THAT I SEE
CHORUS:
The things that I see got me laughin’ like a baby!
The things that I see got me cryin’ like a man!
The things that I see, I can look at what He gave me!
And He’s gonna show me even more than I see.
Just the other day I heard a new voice in the darkness
sendin’ me away with mud on my face;
I heard the people say:“He’s crazy and he’s hopeless!”
‘til a splash washed the darkness away! CHORUS
Makin’ me explain to a lot of angry faces,
talkin’ to ‘em plain they don’t hear what I say,
tellin’ me again“He’s a sinner and he’s reckless”,
but there’s only one thing I can say…CHORUS
He came to me again and this time I could see Him,
told me how he’d been out lookin’ for me.
He told me to believe, I said “What should I believe in?”.
He said “Keep on believin’ in me!”. CHORUS
CLOSING HYMN: SALVE REGINA
Salve, Regina, mater misericordiae;
Vita, dulcedo et spes nostra salve.
Ad te clamamus, exsules filii Hevae.
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia ergo, advocata nostra,
illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.
Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.
O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Virgo Maria.
