LENTEN SONGS

Entrance Hymn: HOSEA

Come back to me with all your heart,

don't let fear keep us apart.

Trees do bend, tho’ straight and tall;

so must we to others' call.

REF: Long have I waited for your coming

home to me and living deeply our new life.

The wilderness will lead you

to your heart where I will speak.

Integrity and justice

with tenderness you shall know. (ref)

You shall sleep secure with peace;

faithfulness will be your joy. (ref)

Offertory Song: O Dios Dawata

O Dios, dawata ang akong kalag, ang kabubut-

on ko’g akong kagawasan: itugyan ko kanimo

ang akong gugma, dawata kini’g panalangini.

mga bunga sa akong pagpanlimbasog, sa

dakong pagpaubos, ihalad ko’ng tanan. bag-oha

pinaagi sa imong pulong usaha kami sa imong

gugma.

//:ang tanang mga butang nga imong gigasa

ihalad ko karon kay ikaw man ang tag-

iya. ihatag mo lang ang imong grasya ug wa na

ako’y paabuton pa.://

ending

Ug wa na ako’y paabuton pa. ug wa na ako’y

paabuton pa.

Communion Song: I Seek You For I Thirst

Refrain:

Though many times I run from you in shame

I lift my hands and call upon Your name

For underneath the shadow of Your wings

My melody is You

Oh Lord I seek You for I thirst

Your mercy is the rain on the desert of my soul

Oh Lord I raise my lifeless eyes

And see Your glory shine, how your kindness

overflows (refrain)

Oh Lord Your sanctuary calls

I yearn to be with You in the rivers of Your love

(refrain)

GOD OF SILENCE

The God of silence beckons me

To journey to my heart

Where He awaits

O Lord, I hear You calling tenderly

To You I come to gaze

At the beauty of Your face I cannot see

To rest in Your embrace I cannot feel

To dwell in Your love hurting but sweet

To be with You; to glimpse eternity

God of night, fount of all my delight.

Show Your light . . . that my heart, like Yours,

burn bright.

Be still the torment of the night

Will not encumber you, if you believe

My child this darkness isn't emptiness

For here I mold your heart

Unto My image painfully you long to see

The self you yearn to be, but fear to know

The world from which you flee in Me find home

All these I give you, if you remain in Me
