YEAR OF SAINT JOSEPH PRAYER
Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer,
Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
To you God entrusted his only Son;
in you, Mary placed her trust'
with you Christ became man.
Blessed Joseph, to us too,
show yourself a father
and guide us in the path of life.
Obtain for us grace, mercy, and courage,
and defend us from every evil. Amen.
Best Regards,
Kyle

Glory in the Cross
Dan Schutte
Holy Thursday
1. Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ,
our salvation and our hope.
Let us bow in homage to the Lord of Life,
who was broken to make us whole.
There is no greater love, as blessed as this:
to lay down one’s life for a friend.
Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ
and the triumph of God’s great love.
2. Let us make our journey to the cross of Christ,
who surrendered glory and grace
to become a servant of the great and small,
that all people may know God’s face.
Though his birth was divine, he knelt as a slave,
to wash common dust from our feet.
Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ
and the triumph of God’s great love.
3. Let us tell the story of the cross of Christ
as we share this heavenly feast.
We become one body in the blood of Christ,
from the great to the very least.
When we eat of this bread, and drink of this cup,
we honor the death of the Lord.
Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ
and the triumph of God’s great love.
4. Let us stand together at the cross of Christ
where we see God’s boundless love.
We are saints and sinners who are joined
by faith here on earth and heav’n above.
Neither woman nor man, not servant or free,
but one in the eyes of the Lord.
Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ
and the triumph of God’s great love.

These Alone Are Enough
Dan Schutte
1. Take my heart, O Lord, take my hopes and dreams.
Take my mind with all its plans and schemes.
Give me nothing more than your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
2. Take my thoughts, O Lord, and my memory.
Take my tears, my joys, my liberty.
Give me nothing more than your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
3. I surrender, Lord, all I have and hold.
I return to you your gifts untold.
Give me nothing more than your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.
4. When the darkness falls on my final days,
take the very breath that sang your praise.
Give me nothing more than your love and grace.
These alone, O God, are enough for me.

We remember how you loved us to your death, and still we celebrate, for you are with us here; and we believe that we will see you when you come in your glory, Lord.
We remember, we celebrate, we believe.
1. Here, a million wounded souls are yearning just to touch you and be healed. Gather all your people, and hold them to your heart.
We remember how...
2. Now we recreate your love, we bring the bread and wine to share a meal. Sign of grace and mercy, the presence of the Lord.
We remember how...
3. Christ, the Father's great 'Amen' to all the hopes and dreams of ev'ry heart, Peace beyond all telling, and freedom from all fear.
We remember how...
4. See the face of Christ revealed in ev'ry person standing by your side, Gift to one another, and temples of your love.
We remember how...

Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore his sacred name.
1. Come, Christians, follow where our Savior trod,
Our King victorious, Christ, the Son of God.
2. Led on their way by this triumphant sign,
The hosts of God in conquering ranks combine.
3. Each newborn servant of the Crucified
Bears on the brow the seal of him who died.
4. O Lord, once lifted on the glorious tree,
Your death has bought us life eternally.
5. So shall our song of triumph ever be:
Praise to the Crucified for victory!

Take Up Our Cross
Curtis Stephan/Sarah Hart/Marc Byrd
1. Behold the wood that bears our name;
behold the nails that hold our sin.
The tree from which salvation blooms;
the death by which we're born again.
Refrain
We take up our cross and follow him;
we lay down our lives that we might live.
We carry the hope of Christ within;
we take up our cross and follow him.
2. We embrace the sacrifice,
and walk the path we cannot see.
The burdens of this world made light;
by blood and thorn we are redeemed. (to Refrain)
Bridge
Lift him high, lift him high;
let his name be glorified.
Lift him high, lift him high;
let his name be glorified.

I Will Choose Christ
Tom Booth
Refrain
I will choose Christ,
I will choose love,
I choose to serve.
I give my heart, I give my life,
I give my all to you.
1. How many times
must he call my name
and show to me that he is God?
And as a servant he calls to me,
“You must serve too.”
2. Christ, my teacher and healer,
teach my heart and heal my soul.
And as I walk this road with you,
teach me to love.
3. As I look upon your cross,
so too must I die with you.
And with the death of my
own desires,
I’ll rise with you.

At The Cross (Love Ran Red)
Verse 1
There's a place
Where mercy reigns and never dies
There's a place
Where streams of grace flow deep and wide
Where all the love I've ever found
Comes like a flood comes flowing down
Chorus
At the cross at the cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red and my sin washed white
I owe all to You I owe all to You (Jesus)
Verse 2
There's a place
Where sin and shame are powerless
Where my heart
Has peace with God and forgiveness
Where all the love I've ever found
Comes like a flood comes flowing down
Bridge
Here my hope is found
Here on holy ground
Here I bow down here I bow down
Here arms open wide
Here You saved my life
Here I bow down here I bow (down)

The Wonderful Cross
Verse 1
When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died
My richest gain I count but loss
And pour contempt on all my pride
Verse 2
See from His head His hands His feet
Sorrow and love flow mingled down
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet
Or thorns compose so rich a crown
Chorus
O the wonderful cross
O the wonderful cross
Bids me come and die and find
That I may truly live
O the wonderful cross
O the wonderful cross
All who gather here by grace
Draw near and bless Your name
Verse 3
Were the whole realm of nature mine
That were an offering far too small
Love so amazing so divine
Demands my soul my life my all
