Text: William Kethe, 1561; based on Psalm 100

1 All people that on earth do dwell,

sing to the Lord with cheerful voice;

him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell,

come ye before him, and rejoice.

2 Know that the Lord is God indeed;

without our aid he did us make;

we are his folk, he doth us feed,

and for his sheep he doth us take.

3 O enter then his gates with praise,

approach with joy his courts unto;

praise, laud, and bless his name always,

for it is seemly so to do.

4 For why? The Lord our God is good;

his mercy is for ever sure;

his truth at all times firmly stood,

and shall from age to age endure.

5 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,

the God whom heaven and earth adore,

from men and from the angel-host

be praise and glory evermore.

Lord! Thou Source of All Perfection

Text: Balthasar Münter (1735-1793) Lord! Thou source of all perfection, fountain of eternal love, fill the famished soul that thirsteth for the waters from above. From all evil passions purge me, in the path of justice urge me, teach my heart to love but Thee, Thou who ever lovest me.

Prayer of Saint Francis

November 17, 2024 • TRC Teen Choir

Text: Attr. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226) Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace. Where there is hatred, let us sow love; Where there is injury, let us sow pardon; Where there is discord, let us sow union; Where there is doubt, let us sow faith; Where there is despair, let us sow hope; Where there is darkness, let us sow light; Where there is sadness, let us sow joy. Grant that we may not so much seek To be consoled, as to console; To be understood, as to understand; To be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are pardoned; And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
