Processional Hymn - 859 - God of Day and God of Darkness
God of day and God of darkness,
Now we stand before the night.
As the shadows stretch and deepen,
Come and make our darkness bright.
All creation still is groaning
For the dawning of your might.
When the Sun of peace and justice
Fills the earth with radiant light.Still the nations curse the darkness,
Still the rich oppress the poor.
Still the earth is bruised and broken
By the ones who still want more.
Come and wake us from our sleeping,
So our hearts cannot ignore
All your people lost and broken,
All your children at our door.You shall be the path that guides us;
You the light that in us burns.
Shining deep within all people,
Yours the love that we must learn.
For our hearts shall wander restless
'Til they safe to you return.
Finding you in one another,
We shall all your face discern.Praise to you in day and darkness,
You our source and you are end;
Praise to you who love and nurture
As a father, mother, friend.
Grant us all a peaceful resting,
Let each mind and body mend,
So we rise refreshed tomorrow,
Hearts renewed to kingdom tend.

Concluding Prayer
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)
We pray to the Lord.
All: Lord, hear our prayer.
Prayer for Our Lady of Angels Parish
Heavenly Father, we thank you for gathering us together and calling us to serve as your disciples.
You have charged us through your Son, Jesus, with the great mission of evangelizing and witnessing your love to the world.
Send your Holy Spirit to guide us as we discern your will for the spiritual renewal of our parish.
Give us strength, courage, and clear vision as we use our gifts to serve you.
We entrust our parish family to the care of Mary, our mother, and ask for her intercession and guidance, as we strive to build a parish that loves God, embraces all people, and shares the Gospel joyfully.
Amen.

Offertory Hymn - Day is Done
Day is done, but Love unfailing
Dwells ever here;
Shadows fall, but hope, prevailing,
Calms ev'ry fear.
God, our Maker, none forsaking,
Take our hearts, of Love's own making;
Watch our sleeping, guard our waking,
Be always near.Dark descends, but Light unending
Shines through our night;
You are with us, ever lending
New strength to sight.
One in love, your truth confessing,
One in hope of heaven's blessing,
May we see, in love's possessing,
Love's endless light!Eyes will close, but you unsleeping
Watch by our side;
Death may come, in Love's safekeeping
Still we abide.
God of love, all evil quelling,
Sin forgiving, fear dispelling:
Stay with us, our hearts in dwelling,
This eventide.

Communion Hymn - 932 - One Bread, One Body
One bread, one body, one Lord of all,
One cup of blessing which we bless.
And we, though many, throughout the earth,
We are one body in this one Lord.
Gentile or Jew,
Servant or free,
Woman or man, no more!Many the gifts,
Many the works,
One in the Lord of all.Grain for the fields,
Scattered and grown,
Gathered to one, for all.

Communion Hymn 2 - Jesus My Lord, My God, My All
Jesus! my Lord, my God, my all!
How can I love Thee as I ought?
And, how revere this wondrous gift,
So far surpassing hope or thought?
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore!
O, make us love Thee more and more!
O, make us love Thee more and more!
Had I but Mary's sinless heart
To love Thee with, my dearest King!
O with what bursts of fervent praise
Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing!
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore!
O, make us love Thee more and more!
O, make us love Thee more and more!
O! see upon the altar placed
The victim of divinest love!
Let all the earth below adore,
And join the choirs of heav’n above.
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore!
O, make us love Thee more and more!
O, make us love Thee more and more!

Marian Antiphon - Salve Regina
Salve Regina, Mater misericordiae,
vita, dulcedo et spes nostr, 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.

Recessional Hymn -766 - City of God
Awake from your slumber
Arise from your sleep
A new day is dawning
For all those who weep
The people in darkness
Have seen a great light
The lord of our longing
Has conquered the night
Let us build the city of God
May our tears
Be turned into dancing
For the lord
Our light and our love
Has turned the night into day
