In These Days of Lenten Journey
Ricky Manalo CSP
Refrain
In these days of Lenten journey
we have seen and we have heard
the call to sow justice
in the lives of those we serve.
1. We reach out to those who are homeless,
to those who live without warmth.
In the coolness of evening we’ll shelter their dreams;
we will clothe them in mercy and peace.
2. We open our eyes to the hungry,
and see the faces of Christ.
As we nourish all people who hunger for food,
may their faith in our God be renewed.
3. We open our ears to the weary
and hear the cry of the poor.
To the voices that echo the song of despair,
we will show our compassion and care.
4. We call on the Spirit of Justice
and pray for the righteousness’ sake.
We will sing for the freedom of all the oppressed;
we will loosen the bonds of distress.

Offertory
Stand by Me
Tom Kendzia
1. When the storms of life are raging,
Lord, stand by me.
When the current pulls me under,
Lord, stand by me.
When the rising waters toss me
like a ship upon the sea,
You who rule the wind and water,
Lord, stand by me.
Refrain
Stand by me, stand by me.
Lift me up from the restless sea.
When I am lost, when love can’t be found,
when no one cares, Lord, stand by me.
2. In the midst of persecution,
Lord, stand by me.
When my enemies surround me,
Lord, stand by me.
When the tyrant wields his terror
and the armies wage their might,
When the darkness overwhelms me,
Lord, stand by me.
