1. Loving Gaze

Here I am drawn into your loving gaze.
You bid me draw near to you;
You steep my soul into a deep prayer
open wide your Sacred Heart
a downpour of grace floats over me.
And here I am drawn into your loving gaze.

Words a whisper cannot hold.
Inside this heart of mind your divine Truth unfolds.
Open to me a love unknown
a burning charity that consumes my soul.
And here I am drawn into your loving gaze.

Looking at you looking at me;
inside this loving gaze I see who I am meant to be.
You offer yourself in humility:
in a gift of self I will be made free.
And here I am drawn into your loving gaze.

Can’t create this amazing love,
it’s only by your grace that I am here with you my Lord.
One with You in this sacred place
my soul is at rest as I gaze upon your face.
And here I am drawn into your loving gaze,
here I am drawn into your loving gaze.

2. Ave Maris Stella

Ave maris stella
Dei Mater alma,
Atque semper Virgo,
Felix caeli porta.

Sumens illud Ave
Gabrielis ore,
Funda nos in pace,
Mutans Evae nomen.

Monstra tesse matrem:
Sumat per te preces;
Qui pro nobis natus,
Tulit esse tuus.

Sit laus Deo Patri,
Summo Christo decus,
Spiritui Sancto,
Tribus honor unus.

3. Because You Say Forever

Deep in my heart I have heard Your voice
calling me to be by your side,
give my life and follow where You lead.
Seized by your love now I know that I
cannot help but to leave it all and heed the call
that You have made to me.

Refrain. You said “Come follow” and so I came.
You have proved faithful again and again.
You took the first step when you called my name.
Because you say “Forever” I want to say the same.

Deep crashing waves cannot quench love
nor raging floods sweep You away.
I cannot pay to purchase what You give.
You are the same, Jesus, yesterday, and today,
forever more I am sure
Your love will never change. Refrain

Because you say “Forever” I want to say the same.

4. The Creed

I believe in 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,
nd 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.
Amen.

5. I will Sing My Works to the King

Refrain: I will sing, I will sing my works to the King,
offer my hands joyfully,
with humble heart and steadfast love
I will sing
sing my works to the King.

The face of Christ
revealed in those we serve,
with a simple love
for the poor of the earth
and I will sing
Christ’s wounded hands reaching out in those who need
to stir my soul to greater offerings
and I will sing
I will sing!  Refrain

Oh wounded Heart
pierced by the world,
run into my arms and know a Mother’s love,
and we will sing,
Hear the word of God,
He speaks His peace to you;
come to know His touch, your soul to renew,
and we will sing
we will sing!  Refrain

Consecrated in our love for You,
we go from grace to grace,
Your work of love to do
and we will sing,
In union with Divine Love we pray,
we may lay down our lives for the good of souls this day,
and we will sing
we will sing!  Refrain x2

6. Lean Into the Wind

This life I lead the air I breath
You have conceived within me
Dear Jesus how all my sin and sadness, you take and banish
and give me grace and peace, your healing and your beauty
Good measure packed together, poured into my soul.

All my being consumed in living
each moment of the day
through every trial, all the while, obeying all that you say.
Feelings are fleeting, my strength is exhausting
Yet within me deeply you call out and say

Refrain: Why are you here?  (You know my Lord I love you)
What do you fear?  (In peace accept the fight)
Will you just stay there, or lean into the wind? (I will lean into the wind)

Are you here for consolations?
Mere pleasures and devotions
flowing only with the motions, in the shallows you stay?
Or are you here to love me?
Your heart undividing,
relax the grasp of all that you clasp
be rich in me.  Refrain

 My beloved you will see
I’ll fulfill these plans to be,
embrace in faith there’s no other way,
go deep with me.  Refrain.

Lean into the wind
Lean into the wind
Lean into the wind

Just to be a sacrifice of praise,
I will offer You O Lord whether it’s night or day.  Refrain

Just to hear your heart sing, is it all just a sentimental thing?  Refrain
