Pag-aalaala
Manoling V. Franciso, SJ

Bayan muling magtipon.
Awitan ang Panginoon.
Sa piging sariwain
pagliligtas niya sa atin.

Bayan ating alalahanin,
panahong tayo’y inalipin.
Nang ngalan N’ya’y ating sambitin,
paanong ‘di tayo lingapin?

Bayan muling magtipon.
Awitan ang Panginoon.
Sa piging sariwain
pagliligtas niya sa atin.

Bayan walang sawang purihin
ang Poon nating mahabagin.
Bayan, isayaw ang damdamin
kandili N’ya’y ating awitin.

Bayan muling magtipon.
Awitan ang Panginoon.
Sa piging sariwain
pagliligtas niya sa atin.

Sa piging sariwain
pagliligtas niya sa atin.






PSALMODY

Ant. 1 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, alleluia.

Psalm 118
Song of joy for salvation




Give thanks to the Lord for he is good, *
for his love endures forever.

Let the sons of Israel say: *
“His love endures for ever.”
Let the sons of Aaron say: *
“His love endures for ever.”
Let those who fear the Lord say: *
“His love endures for ever.”

I called to the Lord in my distress; *
he answered and freed me.
The Lord is at my side; I do not fear. *
What can man do against me?
The Lord is at my side as my helper: *
I shall look down on my foes.

It is better to take refuge in the Lord *
than to trust in men:
it is better to take refuge in the Lord *
than to trust in princes.

The nations all encompassed me; *
in the Lord’s name I crushed them.
They compassed me, compassed me about; *
in the Lord’s name I crushed them.
They compassed me about like bees;
they blazed like a fire among thorns. *
In the Lord’s name I crushed them.

I was hard-pressed and was falling *
but the Lord came to help me.
The Lord is my strength and my song; *
he is my savior.
There are shouts of joy and victory *
in the tents of the just.

The Lord’s right hand has triumphed; *
his right hand raised me.
The Lord’s right hand has triumphed;
I shall not die, I shall live *
and recount his deeds.
I was punished, I was punished by the Lord, *
but not doomed to die.

Open to me the gates of holiness: *
I will enter and give thanks.
This is the Lord’s own gate *
where the just may enter.
I will thank you for you have answered *
and you are my savior.

The stone which the builders rejected *
has become the corner stone.
This is the work of the Lord, *
a marvel in our eyes.
This day was made by the Lord; *
we rejoice and are glad.

O Lord, grant us salvation; *
O Lord, grant success.
Blessed in the name of the Lord *
is he who comes.
We bless you from the house of the Lord; *
the Lord God is our light.

Go forward in procession with branches *
even to the altar.
You are my God, I thank you. *
My God, I praise you.
Give thanks to the Lord for he is good; *
for his love endures for ever.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.

Psalm Prayer

Lord God, you have given us the great day of rejoicing: Jesus Christ, the stone rejected by the builders, has become the cornerstone of the Church, our spiritual home. Shed upon your Church the rays of your glory, that it may be seen as the gate of salvation open to all nations. Let cries of joy and exultation ring out from its tents, to celebrate the wonder of Christ’s resurrection.

Ant. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, alleluia.

Ant. 2 Let us sing a hymn of praise to our God, alleluia.

Canticle: Daniel 3:52-57
Let all creatures praise the Lord




Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of our fathers, *
praiseworthy and exalted above all forever;

And blessed is your holy and glorious name, *
praiseworthy and exalted above all for all ages.

Blessed are you in the temple of your holy glory, *
praiseworthy and glorious above all forever.

Blessed are you on the throne of your kingdom, *
praiseworthy and exalted above all forever.

Blessed are you who look into the depths
from your throne upon the cherubim, *
praiseworthy and exalted above all forever.

Blessed are you in the firmament of heaven, *
praiseworthy and glorious forever.

Bless the Lord, all you works of the Lord, *
praise and exalt him above all forever.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.

Ant. Let us sing a hymn of praise to our God, alleluia.

Ant. 3
Praise the Lord for his infinite greatness, alleluia.

Psalm 150
Praise the Lord




Praise God in his holy place, *
praise him in his mighty heavens.
Praise him for his powerful deeds, *
praise his surpassing greatness.

O praise him with sound of trumpet, *
praise him with lute and harp.
Praise him with timbrel and dance, *
praise him with strings and pipes.

O praise him with resounding cymbals, *
praise him with clashing of cymbals.
Let everything that lives and that breathes *
give praise to the Lord.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.

Psalm Prayer

Lord God, maker of heaven and earth and of all created things, you make your just ones holy and you justify sinners who confess your name. Hear us as we humbly pray to you: give us eternal joy with your saints.

1st Reading

Dt 4:1-2, 6-8

A reading from the Book of Deuteronomy

Moses said to the people:
“Now, Israel, hear the statutes and decrees
   which I am teaching you to observe,
   that you may live, and may enter in and take possession of the land
   which the LORD, the God of your fathers, is giving you.
In your observance of the commandments of the LORD, your God,
   which I enjoin upon you,
   you shall not add to what I command you nor subtract from it.

Observe them carefully,
   for thus will you give evidence of your wisdom and intelligence to the nations,
   who will hear of all these statutes and say,
   ‘This great nation is truly a wise and intelligent people.’
For what great nation is there
   that has gods so close to it as the LORD, our God, is to us
   whenever we call upon him?
Or what great nation has statutes and decrees
   that are as just as this whole law
   which I am setting before you today?”

The word of the Lord.

The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Responsorial Psalm

Ps 15:2-3, 3-4, 4-5

℟. (1a) One who does justice will live in the presence of the Lord.

Whoever walks blamelessly and does justice;
   who thinks the truth in his heart
   and slanders not with his tongue.

℟. One who does justice will live in the presence of the Lord.

Who harms not his fellow man,
   nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor;
by whom the reprobate is despised,
   while he honors those who fear the LORD.

℟. One who does justice will live in the presence of the Lord.

Who lends not his money at usury
   and accepts no bribe against the innocent.
Whoever does these things
   shall never be disturbed.

℟. One who does justice will live in the presence of the Lord.



2nd Reading

Jas 1:17-18, 21b-22, 27

A reading from the Letter of Saint James

Dearest brothers and sisters:
All good giving and every perfect gift is from above,
   coming down from the Father of lights,
   with whom there is no alteration or shadow caused by change.
He willed to give us birth by the word of truth
   that we may be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

Humbly welcome the word that has been planted in you
   and is able to save your souls.

Be doers of the word and not hearers only, deluding yourselves.

Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this:
   to care for orphans and widows in their affliction
   and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

The word of the Lord.

The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Alleluia, Alleluia.

The Father willed to give us birth by the word of truth
that we might be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

Alleluia, Alleluia.



Gospel

Mk 7:1-8, 14-15, 21-23

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark

When the Pharisees with some scribes who had come from Jerusalem
   gathered around Jesus,
   they observed that some of his disciples ate their meals
   with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands.
—For the Pharisees and, in fact, all Jews,
   do not eat without carefully washing their hands,
   keeping the tradition of the elders.
And on coming from the marketplace
   they do not eat without purifying themselves.
And there are many other things that they have traditionally observed,
   the purification of cups and jugs and kettles and beds.—
So the Pharisees and scribes questioned him,
   “Why do your disciples not follow the tradition of the elders
   but instead eat a meal with unclean hands?”
He responded,
   “Well did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites, as it is written:
      This people honors me with their lips,
         but their hearts are far from me;
      in vain do they worship me,
         teaching as doctrines human precepts.

You disregard God’s commandment but cling to human tradition.”
He summoned the crowd again and said to them,
   “Hear me, all of you, and understand.
Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person;
   but the things that come out from within are what defile.

“From within people, from their hearts,
   come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder,
   adultery, greed, malice, deceit,
   licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly.
All these evils come from within and they defile.”

At the end of the Gospel, the Deacon, or the Priest, acclaims:

The Gospel of the Lord.

All reply:

Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Then he kisses the book, saying quietly:

Through the words of the Gospel
may our sins be wiped away.

The Creed is said.

The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ.




Nicene Creed

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.

Amen.






To Be Your Bread
David Haas

To be your bread now,
be your wine now,
Lord, come and change us
to be a sign of your love.

Blest and broken,
poured and flowing,
gift that you gave us, to
be your body once again.

We come to your table
with our lives as they are.
Heal us Lord, for we are broken;
make us one again.

To be your bread now,
be your wine now,
Lord, come and change us
to be a sign of your love.

Blest and broken,
poured and flowing,
gift that you gave us, to
be your body once again.

Lord, we stumble through
the darkness of night.
Lead us, now, O Lord,
we follow; bring us home to you.

To be your bread now,
be your wine now,
Lord, come and change us
to be a sign of your love.

Blest and broken,
poured and flowing,
gift that you gave us, to
be your body once again.

Give us the bread and wine
that bring us to life.
Feed us, and we'll never hunger,
never thirst again.

To be your bread now,
be your wine now,
Lord, come and change us
to be a sign of your love.

Blest and broken,
poured and flowing,
gift that you gave us, to
be your body once again.

I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I have heard my people cry.

My hand will save.

I who made the stars of night,
I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them?
Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard You calling in the night.
I will go Lord if you lead me.
I will hold Your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of snow and rain,
I have borne my people's pain.
I have wept for love of them,
they turn away.

I will break their hearts of stone,
give them hearts for love alone.
I will speak my word to them.
Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard You calling in the night.
I will go Lord if you lead me.
I will hold Your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of wind and flame,

I will set a feast for them;
my hand will save.

Finest bread I will provide
till their hearts be satisfied.
I will give my life to them.
Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard You calling in the night.
I will go Lord if you lead me.
I will hold Your people in my heart.







Gospel Canticle

Ant. Listen and understand the instructions the Lord has given to you.

Canticle of Zechariah
Luke 1:68-79
The Messiah and his forerunner


Blessed + be the Lord, the God of Israel; *
he has come to his people and set them free.

He has raised up for us a mighty savior, *
born of the house of his servant David.

Through his holy prophets he promised of old
  that he would save us from our enemies, *
  from the hands of all who hate us.

He promised to show mercy to our fathers *
and to remember his holy covenant.

This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham: *
to set us free from the hands of our enemies,
free to worship him without fear, *
holy and righteous in his sight
   all the days of our life.

You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High; *
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way,
to give his people knowledge of salvation *
by the forgiveness of their sins.

In the tender compassion of our God *
the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, *
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.
