Opening Hymn
O Salutaris
O Saving Victim opening wide
The gates of heaven to man below!
Our foes press on from every side;
Thine aid supply, Thy strength bestow.
To Thy great name be endless praise
Immortal Godhead, One in Three;
Oh, grant us endless length of days,
In our true native land with Thee. Amen

BENEDICTION
Tantum Ergo
Let us raise our voice to proclaim our faith
Christ the Lord for us has died.
Dying, he destroyed our death, rising, he restored our life.
O Lord Jesus we await your last return in glory.
When we eat the bread and we drink the cup
In the Blessed Eucharist,
It is you our risen saviour, your life in us renew.
