INTRODUCTION

Leader: Prayer in the spirit of the Taize Community is a meditative form of


communal prayer. Gathered in the presence of Christ, symbolized by
the cross, we sing simple, repetitive songs, uncluttered by too many
words, allowing the mystery of God to become tangible through the
beauty of simplicity. A few words sung over and over again reinforce
the contemplative quality of prayer. They express a basic reality of
faith that can quickly be grasped by the intellect and that gradually
penetrates the whole being. (Pause)

We are gathered here in the presence of God. Let us be still for a few
moments asking God to remain with us in our prayer. (Pause)

All: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

ENTHRONEMENT OF THE CROSS

Veni Sancte Spiritus! Veni Sancte Spiritus! Veni Sancte Spiritus!

Come, Holy Spirit, from heaven shine forth with your glorious light. Veni Sancte Spiritus

Come, Father of the poor, come, generous Spirit, come, light of our hearts. Veni Sancte Spiritus

Come from the four winds, O Spirit, come breath of God;


disperse the shadows over us, renew and strengthen your people.
Veni Sancte Spiritus

PSALM (Sit)

How lovely is your dwelling place


O Lord, Mighty God, Lord of all.

Even the lowly sparrow finds a home for her brood,


and the swallow, a nest for herself
where she may lay her young
in your altars, my King and my God.

Blessed are they whose dwelling is your own, Lord of peace.


blest are they refreshed by springs and by rain
when dryness daunts and scathes.
behold my shield, my king and my God.

I would forsake a thousand other days anywhere


if I could spend one day in your courts,
belong to you alone.
my strength are you alone,
my Glory, my King and my God.

ALLELUIA (Stand)

Celtic Alleluia

GOSPEL READING

A reading from the holy Gospel according to John.

This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one
has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my
friends is you do what I command you. I do not call you servants any longer,
because the servant does not know what the master is doing; but I have called you
friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my
Father. You did not choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear
fruit, fruit that will last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in
my name. I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another.

The Gospel of the Lord.

CHANT (Sit)

Ubi caritas et amor, ubi caritas Deus ibi est.

Sa pagmamahal naroroon ang Dios.


Sa pagmamahal naroroon ang Dios.

Sa paghigugma anaa ang Dios.

SILENCE (5 minutes)

INTERCESSIONS (Stand)
Leader: With faith, let us call upon our Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God and Son
of Mary, who alone can give us fullness of life. Let us say to him:

Lord, hear our prayer.

1. Risen Christ, you fill our lives with your compassion so that we may always
seek you.
2. Risen Christ, you know our longing: lead us on the path of eternity.
3. Risen Christ, we pray to you for those who are just beginning to know you.
4. Risen Christ, we pray to you for those who cannot believe: your love is
always offered.
5. Risen Christ, you are the support of those who encounter difficulties and
discouragement: lead us on the path of eternity.
6. Risen Christ, we pray to you for those who have been victims of violence
and humiliation: come to heal their wounds.
7. Risen Christ, you guide us by your Spirit: gather all the nations into your
Kingdom.

VENERATION OF THE CROSS (Sit)

Leader: At this point in the liturgy, you are warmly invited to come near to the
cross and offer your personal prayer in the quiet of your own heart.
Feel free to place your head on the cross, kiss it or simply place your
hand on the cross.

Bless the Lord, my soul


And bless God’s holy name
Bless the Lord, my soul
Who leads me into life.

Jesus, remember me
When you come into your kingdom
Jesus, remember me
When you come into your kingdom

Oh… Adoramus te, Domine


Oh… Adoramus te, Domine

LORD’S PRAYER (Stand)

PRAYER
O God the Father of all, you ask every one of us to spread love and reconciliation
where people are divided. You open this way for us, so that the wounded body of
Jesus Christ, your Church, may be leaven of communion for the poor of the earth
and in the whole human family. Amen.

SILENCE (transition)

EXPOSITION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT (Kneel)

The priest places the Blessed Eucharist on the altar, in the monstrance or ciborium. He genuflects before Jesus and
kneels. While a Eucharistic song is being sung, he incenses the Blessed Sacrament.

O salutaris Hostia
Quae caeli pandis ostium;
Bella premunt hostilla,
Da robur, fer auxillium.

Uni trinoque Domino


Sit sempiterna gloria,
Qui vitam sine termino
Nobis donet in patria. Amen.

Presider: Let us pray.

Father in heaven, you have made us for yourself;


our hearts are restless until they rest in you.
Fulfill this longing through Jesus, the Bread of Life,
so that we may witness to him
who alone satisfies the hungers of the human family.
By the power of your Spirit
lead us to the heavenly table
where we may feast on the vision of your glory
for ever and ever.

All: Amen.

BENEDICTION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT

The following is sung while the minister incenses the Sacrament.

Tantum ergo Sacramentum


Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedat ritui:
Praestet fides supplementum
Sensuum defectui.

Genitori, Genitoque
Laus et iubilatio,
Salus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedictio:
Procedenti ab utroque
Compar sit laudatio. Amen.

The priest sings or says:

V. Panem de caelo praestitisti eis.


R. Omne delectamentum in se habentem.

Standing, the priest sings or says:

Orémus.
Deus, qui nobis, sub sacraménto mirábili, passiónis tuæ memóriam reliquísti:
tríbue, quæsumus; ita nos Córporis et Sánguinis tui sacra mystéria venerári, ut
redemptiónis tuæ fructum in nobis júgiter sentiámus: Qui vivis et regnas in sæcula
sæculórum.

Amen.

After the prayer, the priest of deacon puts on the humeral veil, genuflects, and takes the monstrance or ciborium. He
makes the sign of the cross over the people with the monstrance or ciborium, in silence.
