Offertory They Aye Carol

1. Who is the baby

an hour or two old

Looked for by shepherds

far strayed from their fold,

Lost in the world though

more precious than gold?

This is God with us in Jesus.

2. Who is the woman with

child at her breast,

Giving her milk to

earth's heavenly guest,

Telling her mind to

be calm and at rest?

Mary, the mother of Jesus.

3. Who is the man who

looks on at the door,

Welcoming strangers,

some rich but most poor,

Scanning the world as

if somehow unsure?

Joseph, the father of Jesus.

4. Who are the people

come in from the street,

Some to bring presents

and some just to meet,

Joining their song to

what angels repeat?

These are the new friends of Jesus.

5. Will you come with me,

ev'n though I feel shy,

Come to his cradle

and come to his cry,

Give him your nod or

your 'yes' or your 'aye,'

Give what you can give to Jesus?

Communion Silent Night, Holy Night

1. Silent night, holy night,

All is calm, all is bright

Round yon virgin mother and Child,

Holy Infant so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace,

Sleep in heavenly peace.

2. Silent night, holy night,

Shepherds quake at the sight;

Glories stream from heaven afar,

Heav'nly hosts sing alleluia;

Christ, the Savior, is born!

Christ, the Savior, is born!

3. Silent night, holy night,

Son of God, love's pure light

St. Joseph Sunday Missal Today’s Readings: p. 691 Next Sunday: p. 179-186 To purchase a Sunday Missal for $20,

please see an usher.

L oving and faithful God, through the years the people of our archdio-cese have appreciated the prayers

and love of Our Lady of Prompt Succor in times of war, disaster, epidemic and ill-ness. We come to you, Father, with Mary our Mother, and ask you to help us in the battle of today against violence, murder

and racism.

We implore you to give us your wisdom that we may build a community founded on the values of Jesus, which gives re-

spect to the life and dignity of all people.

Bless parents that they may form their children in faith. Bless and protect our youth that they may be peacemakers of our time. Give consolation to those who

have lost loved ones through violence.

Hear our prayer and give us the persever-ance to be a voice for life and human

dignity in our community.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Our Lady of Prompt Succor, hasten to

help us.

Mother Henriette Delille, pray for us that

we may be a holy family.

Sending Forth Go Tell It on the Mountain

Refrain

Go tell it on the mountain,

Over the hills and ev'rywhere;

Go tell it on the mountain

That Jesus Christ is born!

1. While shepherds kept their watching

O'er silent flocks by night,

Behold throughout the heavens

There shone a holy light.

2. The shepherds feared and trembled

When lo! above the earth

Rang out the angel chorus

That hailed our Savior's birth.

3. Down in a lowly manger

The humble Christ was born,

And God sent us salva+on

That blessed Christmas morn.

Comunión Estoy Pensando en Dios

Estribillo

Estoy pensando en Dios,

estoy pensando en su amor. (bis)

1. Olvida el hombre a su Señor

y poco a poco se desvía,

y entre angus+a y cobardía

va perdiéndose el amor.

Dios le habla como amigo,

huye el hombre de su voz.

2. Yo siento angus+a cuando veo

que después de dos mil años,

y entre tantos desengaños,

pocos viven por amor.

Muchos hablan de esperanza,

mas se alejan del Señor.

3. Todo podría ser mejor

si mi pueblo procurase

caminar sin alejarse

del camino del Señor;

pero el hombre no hace suyos

y los padres San José,

y sus hijos imitasen

Sweetly singing o'er the plains,

And the mountains in reply

Echoing their joyous strains.

Gloria in excelsis Deo.

Gloria in excelsis Deo.

Why your joyous strains prolong?

Which inspire your heavenly song.

Come adore, on bended knee,

While our hearts in love we raise.

wood of the cross,

bearing a life+me of joy and loss,

Who is your loved one?

who could he be,

born in a manger to die in a tree?

Refrain

This, this is Jesus the Lord,

here in the body and blood poured.

Come, come, walk in his ways,

Kneel at the manger and

rise from the grave.

2. Shepherds lie sleeping,

deep in their dreams;

angels awake them:

“What could this mean?

Whom do your herald?

Whom must we find?

A child in a manger?

Our God born in +me?”

3. Star in the heavens

bearing new light,

guiding the sages and

ages this night:

Where will you lead us?

Where can he be,

the child born of myst’ry

who died on a tree?

4. Come, all who hunger,

come, all who thirst;

Come, all seek him,

God’s joy on the earth.

Find him a shelter,

bright, safe and warm;

see in all people his love being born.

life+me of boxes +meless to me.

Le'ers and photographs

yellowed with years,

some bringing laughter

some bringing tears.

Time never changes the mem'ries,

the faces of loved ones

who bring to me.

All that I come from,

and all that I live for

And all that I'm going to be.

My precious fam'ly

Is more than an heirloom to me.

2. Wisemen and shepherds,

down on their knees,

bringing their treasures

to lay at His feet.

Who was this wonder, Baby yet King?

Living and dying, He gave life to me.

Time never changes the mem'ry

the moment His love

first pierced through me

Telling all that I come from,

and all that I live for

and all that I'm going to be.

My precious Savior

is more than an heirloom to me.

My precious Jesus

is more than an heirloom to me.

“The history of mankind, the history of salvation

passes by way of the family…The family is placed

at the center of the struggle between good and

evil, between life and death, between love and all

that is opposed to love. To the family is given the

task of striving, first and foremost, to unleash the

forces of good, the source of which is found in

Christ the Redeemer of man. Every family unit

needs to make these forces their own… so that

the family will be strong with the strength of

God.” St. John Paul ll

Let the New Year remind us of our family respon-

sibilities, the first of which is to be united under

the Kingship of Christ. To experience the en-

thronement of the Sacred Heart in the heart of

the family, , please contact Anne-Marie d'Abadie

<<La historia de la humanidad, la historia de la

salvación se fragua en la familia ... La familia se

encuentra en el centro de la lucha entre el bien y el

mal, entre la vida y la muerte, entre el amor y todo

lo que se opone al amor. A la familia se le da la

tarea de luchar ante todo para liberar las fuerzas del

bien, cuya fuente se encuentra en Cristo, redentor

del hombre. Cada unidad familiar tiene que hacer

estas fuerzas su propia ... para que la familia será

fuerte con la fuerza de Dios. >>San Juan Pablo II

Que el año nuevo nos recuerdan nuestras re-

sponsabilidades familiares, la primera de las cuales

es estar unidos bajo el Reinado de Cristo. Para ex-

perimentar la entronización del Sagrado Corazón en

Act of Spiritual Communion My Jesus, I believe that You are in the Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I long for You in my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though You have already come, I embrace You and unite myself en-tirely to You; never permit me to be separated from You.

Acto de Comunión

Espiritual Mi Jesús, yo creo que Tú estás en el Santísimo Sacramento. Yo te

amo por enci-ma de todas las cosas y yo Te deseo en mi alma. Como ahora no pue-do recibirte sacramental-mente, al me-

nos ven a mi corazón espiritual-mente. Como ya has venido, Yo te abrazo y me uno enteramente a Ti. Nunca permitas que me separe de ti.
