Hymns for 11 AM Mass, Sunday, February 21
Introit
When he calls on me, I will answer him;
I will deliver him and give him glóry,
I will grant hìm length of days.
#105 "In These Days of Lenten Journey"
In these days of Lenten journey
We have seen and we have heard
The call to sow justice in the lives of those we serve.
We reach out to those who are homeless,
To those who live without warmth.
In the coolness of evening we'll shelter their dreams;
We will clothe them in mercy and peace.
We open our eyes to the hungry
And see the faces of Christ.
As we nourish all people who hunger for food,
may their faith in our God be renewed.
We open our ears to the weary
And hear the cry of the poor.
To the voices that echo the song of despair,
We will show our compassion and care.
We call on the Spirit of Justice
And pray for righteousness' sake.
We will sing for the freedom of all the oppressed;
We will loosen the bonds of distress.
