3 3 PROFESSION OF FAITH 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, (BOW) 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.

5 5 LAMB OF GOD Sung by all. A Community Mass Richard Proulx COMMUNION Behold the Lamb... Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb. Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed. COMMUNION MEDITATION Sung by the cantor. The People Who Walked in Darkness Sally Ann Morris The people who walked in darkness awaken to see a great light, The people who dwelt in the land of the shadow rise to a star shining bright. His name is Wonderful, Counselor, Almighty God, Father forever, Prince of Peace. For God has enlarged the nation, and prospered the fruit of its land. God s people are blessed with the harvest of victory, gift from a bountiful hand. The yoke of despair and bondage, the chains and the slave-master s rod Are shattered and scattered like dust in a windstorm loosed by the justice of God. For us now a child is given, for all the despised and forlorn. The rule of compassion shall rest on his shoulder; God s own Messiah is born! How vast is our God s dominion! How far truth and mercy extend. The zeal of the Lord will accomplish its purpose: justice shall reign without end. Isaiah 9:1-6 Mary Louise Bringle COMMUNION ANTHEM [11:00] Sung by the Cathedral Choir. Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid; Star of the east, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining; Low lies his head with the beasts of the stall; Angels adore him in slumber reclining, Maker and Monarch and Savior of all. Say, shall we yield him in costly devotion, Odors of Edom, and off rings divine, Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gifts would his favor secure: Richer by far is the heart s adoration; Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. Brightest and Best Malcolm Archer

6 K 6 PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION RESPONSE: Amen. BLESSING AND DISMISSAL CONCLUDING RITE The Lord be with you. And with your spirit.
