Opening Hymn - 467 - When John Baptized by Jordan’s River

When John baptized by Jordan’s river,
In faith and hope the people came,
That John and Jordan might deliver
Their troubled souls from sin and shame.
They came to seek a new beginning,
The human spirit’s ageless quest:
Repentance and an end of sinning,
Renouncing every wrong confessed.
There as the Lord, baptized and praying,
Rose from the stream the sinless One,
A voice was heard from Heaven saying,
“This is My own beloved Son.”
There as the Father’s word was spoken,
Not in the pow’r of wind and flame,
But of His love and peace the token,
Seen as a dove, the Spirit came.
O Son of Man, our nature sharing,
In whose obedience all are blest,
Savior, our sins and sorrows bearing,
Hear us and grant us this request:
Daily to grow, by grace defended,
Filled with the Spirit from above,
In Christ baptized, beloved, befriended,
Children of God in peace and love.

Greeting:

Priest: The Lord be with you.

ALL: And with your spirit.

Gloria

Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace to people of good will.

We praise you, we bless you, we adore you,
We glorify you,
We give you thanks for your great glory.
Lord God, heavenly king,
O God, Almighty Father.

Lord, Jesus Christ,
Only Begotten Son,
Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,
You take away the sins of the world,
Have mercy on us.
You take away the sins of the world,
Receive our prayer;
You are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us.

For you alone are the Holy One,
You alone are the Lord,
You alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit,
in the glory of God the Father.
Amen, amen

Homily

(please sit)

Nicene Creed
(please stand)

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.

Prayers of the Faithful

(after each prayer intention)

Prayer for Our Lady of Angels Parish

Heavenly Father, we thank you for gathering us together and calling us to serve as your disciples.

LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST

Offertory Hymn - 902 - O Breathe on Me, O Breath of God

O breathe on me, O Breath of God,
Fill me with life anew,
That I may love the things you love,
And do what you would do.

O breathe on me, O Breath of God,
Until my heart is pure;
Until my will is one with yours,
To do and to endure.

O breathe on me, O Breath of God,
My will to yours incline,
Until this selfish part of me
Glows with your fire divine.

O breathe on me, O Breath of God,
So I shall never die,
But live with you the perfect life
For all eternity.

Communion Hymn - 916 - I Receive the Living God

I receive the living God,
and my heart is full of joy.
I receive the living God,
and my heart is full of joy.

1. Jesus says: I am the Bread
Sent to you from God Most High.
Take and eat, and you will live;
You need never fear to die.

2. Jesus says: I am the Vine,
Far from whom no life can grow.
If you join yourself to me,
A rich harvest you will know.

3. Jesus says: I am the Way,
And my path is straight and true.
Follow me to where I lead;
There my Father waits for you.

4. Jesus says: I am the Truth.
If you follow close to me,
You will know me in your heart,
And my word will make you free.

5. Jesus says: I am the Life,
Raised in triumph from the dead.
As one Body now remain,
Members joined to me, the Head.

6. Jesus says: I am the Day,
Shining brightly through your night. Welcome me, and you will walk
By the Spirit’s guiding light.

7. Jesus says: I am the Love
Which can bind you close to me.
Those who know this gift I bring
Will find true community.

8. Jesus says: I am the Peace
Which the world cannot bestow.
Learn to love and live in me,
And in you my Reign will grow.

9. Jesus says: I am the Lamb,
And my death set sinners free.
Those who drink the cup I drink
Must take up this work with me.

Alma Redemptoris Mater

Alma Redemptóris Mater,
quae pérvia caeli porta manes,
Et stella maris,
succúrre cadénti
súrgere qui curat pópulo:
Tu quae genuísti,
natúra miránte,
tuum sanctum Genitórem:
Virgo prius ac postérius,
Gabriélis ab ore
sumens illud Ave,
peccatórum miserére.

Translation:
Kind mother of the Redeemer, who remain the open gate of heaven and the star of the sea, help your falling people who want to rise: you who bore your holy Parent, while nature marveled: a Virgin before and after, receiving that ‘Ave’ from Gabriel’s mouth, have mercy on [us] sinners.

Recessional Hymn - 459 - Songs of Thankfulness and Praise

1) Songs of thankfulness and praise,
Jesus, Lord, to you we raise,
Manifested by the star
to the sages from afar;
branch of royal David's stem,
in your birth at Bethlehem.
Anthems be to you addressed,
God in man made manifest.

2) Manifest at Jordan's stream,
Prophet, Priest, and King supreme,
and at Cana, wedding guest,
in your Godhead manifest;
manifest in pow'r divine,
changing water into wine.
Anthems be to you addressed,
God in man made manifest.
