Now We Remain

Refrain:
We hold the death of the Lord deep in our hearts.
Living, now we remain with Jesus, the Christ.Verse 1
Once we were people afraid, lost in the night.
Then by your cross we were saved.
Dead became living, life from your giving.Refrain:
We hold the death of the Lord deep in our hearts.
Living, now we remain with Jesus, the Christ.Verse 2
Something which we have known,
Something we've touched.
What we have seen with our eyes:
This we have heard, life giving Word.Refrain:
We hold the death of the Lord deep in our hearts.
Living, now we remain with Jesus, the Christ.Verse 3
He chose to give of himself, became our bread.
Broken that we might live.
Love beyond love, pain for our pain.Refrain:
We hold the death of the Lord deep in our hearts.
Living, now we remain with Jesus, the Christ.Verse 4
We are the presence of God; this is our call.
Now to become bread and wine:
Food for the hungry, life for the weary,
For to live with the Lord,
We must die with the Lord.Refrain:
We hold the death of the Lord deep in our hearts.
Living, now we remain with Jesus, the Christ.

Salve Regina

Salve, Régina, mater misericórdiæ:
Vita, dulcédo et spes nostra, salve.
Ad te clamámus, éxsules, fílii Hevæ.
Ad te suspirámus, geméntes et flentes
in hac lacrimárum valle.Eia ergo, advocáta nostra, illos tuos
misericórdes óculos ad nos convérte.
Et Jesum, benedíctum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exsílium osténde.
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo María.

Soul of My Saviour

Verse 1
Soul of my Saviour, sanctify my breast;
Body of Christ, be thou my saving guest;
Blood of my Saviour, bathe me in thy tide;
Wash me with water flowing from his side.Verse 2
Strength and protection may thy Passion be;
O Blessed Jesus, hear and answer me;
Deep in thy wounds, Lord, hide and shelter me;
So shall I never, never part from thee.Verse 3
Hear me, Lord Jesus, listen as I pray;
"Lead me from night to never ending day.
Fill all the world with love and grace divine,
And glory, laud, and praise be ever thine."
