Offertory Hymn

Accept Almighty Father

Verse 1
Accept, Almighty Father, these gifts of bread and wine,
which now the Priest is off’ring, for us before Thy shrine;
But soon the Word will make them His body and His blood,
the sacrifice renewing, once offered on the Rood.Verse 2
With these, although unworthy, some offering we make,
but all we have, Thou gavest, then what thou gavest, take;
Our heart, our soul, our senses, we give through Mary’s hands,
who by the cross once standing, now by the altar stands.

Holy is His Name

Verse 1
My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord
And my spirit exalts in God my Savior
For He has looked with mercy on my lowliness
And my name will be forever exalted
For the mighty God has done great things for me
And His mercy will reach from age to ageRefrain
And holy, holy, holy is His nameVerse 2
He has mercy in every generation
He has revealed His power and His glory
He has cast down the mighty in their arrogance
And has lifted up the meek and the lowly
He has come to help His servant Israel
He remembers His promise to our fathersRefrain
And holy, holy, holy is His name

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.

how the prize of life to win.
