We Gather Together “We gather together to sing the Lord’s praise, to worship the Father through Jesus, his Son. In this celebration, all sing with jubilation! We are his holy people whose freedom he won.” ~ Sofia Scattarreggia, soprano, and Margaret-Mary Owens, organ Psalm 95 R. If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts Come, let us sing joyfully to the Lord; let us acclaim the rock of our salvation. Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us joyfully sing psalms to him. Come, let us bow down in worship; let us kneel before the Lord who made us. For he is our God, and we are the people he shepherds, the flock he guides. Oh, that today you would hear his voice: “Harden not your hearts as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the desert, where your fathers tempted me; they tested me though they had seen my works.” ~ Sofia and Margaret Gospel Acclamation ~ Matt Alexander “The people who sit in darkness have seen a great light; on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death, light has arisen.” (Matthew 4:16) Offertory Come Down, O Love Divine In the first reading, Moses prophesied the coming of Christ, with the warning that we must listen and attend to Him as the one true God. The words of Come Down, O Love Divine echo the words of our psalm by inviting us to sing joyfully of His arrival and to listen to His words and teachings. ~ Sofia and Margaret Communion Draw Near “With heav’nly bread makes those who hunger whole, gives living waters to the thirsting soul: judge of the nations, to whom all must bow, in this great feast of love is with us now.” ~ Sofia and Margaret Recessional Love Divine, All Loves Excelling “Come, Almighty, to deliver, let us all your life receive; suddenly return and never, nevermore your temples leave. Lord, we would be always blessing, serve you as your hosts above, pray, and praise you without ceasing, glory in your precious love.” ~ Sofia and Margaret
