Celebration of Holy Mass

Below is a list of songs that will be sung during Sunday Mass.

Stand in Your Love

When darkness tries to roll over my bones
When sorrow comes to steal the joy I own
When brokenness and pain is all I know
I won’t be shaken, no, I won’t be shaken

‘Cause my fear doesn’t stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
My fear doesn’t stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
My fear doesn’t stand a chance
When I stand in Your love

Shame no longer has a place to hide
And I am not a captive to the lies
I’m not afraid to leave my past behind
Oh, I won’t be shaken, no, I won’t be shaken

My fear doesn’t stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
My fear doesn’t stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
My fear doesn’t stand a chance
When I stand in Your love
Oh, I’m standing

There’s power that can break off every chain
There’s power that can empty out a grave
There’s resurrection power that can save
There’s power in Your name, power in Your name

My fear doesn’t stand a chance
When I stand in Your love

Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee

Joyful, joyful, we adore You,
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flowers before You,
Opening to the sun above.
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness;
Drive the dark of doubt away;
Giver of immortal gladness,
Fill us with the light of day!

All Your works with joy surround You,
Earth and heaven reflect Your rays,
Stars and angels sing around You,
Center of unbroken praise;
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
Flowery meadow, flashing sea,
Chanting bird and flowing fountain
Praising You eternally!

Always giving and forgiving,
Ever blessing, ever blest,
Well-spring of the joy of living,
Ocean-depth of happy rest!
Loving Father, Christ our Brother,
Let Your light upon us shine;
Teach us how to love each other,
Lift us to the joy divine.

Mortals, join the mighty chorus,
Which the morning stars began;
God’s own love is reigning o’er us,
Joining people hand in hand.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life.

---

We Come to You

By Your body and blood,
By Your life and Your love; Renew us.
May Your sacrifice be forgiveness in me;
Heal us.

We come to You.
We come to You broken, hungry.
We come to You. We come to You.
Make us whole again.

In the body of Christ we are brought to new life;
Restore us. May the flesh that we eat and the blood that we drink save us.

We come to You. We come to You broken, hungry.

We come to You. We come to You. Make us whole again.

By Your love, by Your grace, we are one.

Great Are You Lord

You give life, You are love
You bring light to the darkness
You give hope, You restore
Every heart that is broken
Great are You, Lord

It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise
We pour out our praise
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise to You only

You give life, You are love
You bring light to the darkness
You give hope, You restore
Every heart that is broken
Great are You, Lord

It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise
We pour out our praise
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise to You only

It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise
We pour out our praise
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise to You only

And all the earth will shout Your praise
Our hearts will cry, these bones will sing
Great are You, Lord

It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise to You only…

Beautiful Is Your Love

Beautiful Is Your Love – Josh Blakesley Band
Oh how beautiful is your love for me
Oh what joy is mine in this mystery
I will not fear the dark
Here in the presence of your heart
Oh how beautiful is your love

Oh how wonderful is your offering
Lamb laid down for me on compassion’s tree
How could I turn away
From the mercy of your face
Oh how wonderful is your love

Jesus, Jesus
Oh how beautiful is your love
Jesus, Jesus
Oh how beautiful is your love

So miraculous is your sacrifice
Body broken here that I might have life
Take everything I hold
Let me be yours alone
So miraculous is your love

Hope Comes Alive

Can you hear the silence breaking?
Every voice in one accord
Making way for the King of Glory
And everything He has in store
Lift up your voice and sing, and welcome royalty now

Can you feel the darkness tremble?
Host of heaven gathered round
Unified we stand in, raising up one glorious sound
Lift up your voice and sing, let’s welcome royalty now

This is where hope comes alive!
This is where love changes lives!
Where grateful hearts start to rise!
They rise! They rise!
This is where faith moves our feet!
Where broken things are redeemed!
Your presence is breath and life!
This is where hope comes alive!

Every breath is now an anthem
Every sound, one glorious song
Every word like incense rising
In the presence of our God!
Lift up your voice and sing, let’s welcome royalty

This is where hope comes alive!
This is where love changes lives!
Where grateful hearts start to rise!
They rise! They rise!
This is where faith moves our feet!
Where broken things are redeemed!
Your presence is breath and life!
This is where hope comes alive!

Dry bones stand up and move your feet
Dead hearts wake up and start to beat

This is is where hope comes alive!
This is where love changes lives!
Where grateful songs start to rise!
They rise! They rise!
This is where faith moves our feet!
Where broken things are redeemed!
Your presence is breath and life!
This is where hope comes alive!

• Statue/icon/image of Mary –  say a Memorare for someone you know that is sick
• Favorite place to pray
• Image/statue/medal of your patron saint – say a prayer, asking for their intercession
• Depiction of the Holy Spirit (candle, dove image, etc.)
• Crucifix – meditate on Christ’s Passion for a moment
• Green space (flowers in or outside of church, backyard at home) – thank God for his beautiful creation
• Sanctuary of your church – stop and pray
• Something Franciscan (e.g., FUS gear, tau cross, three-knot rope, St. Francis statue, picture of Assisi
• The most beautiful rosary you can find –say a decade of it for your parish or family community
• Retreat/Steubenville T-shirt – share a memory with your group from that retreat/conference

Virtual Scavenger Hunt at Home

You don’t need to leave the house to have a fun scavenger hunt! This list has many items that are probably already in your houses (or fridges!). To raise the stakes, try offering a prize to the first person in your group to submit pictures of everything on the list. The list below is just suggestions, so feel free to get creative and make your own list for your group or family!

• Soy sauce
• Steubenville T-shirt from last year
• A family pet
• A stuffed animal
• The biggest coffee mug you can find
• A textbook
• A board game
• A piece of sports equipment
• A pool noodle
• A box of pasta
• A candle
• A decorative pillow
• A houseplant
• A magnet
• A deck of cards
• A flashlight
• Toilet paper (extra points for every roll)
• A toaster
• Chips and salsa

• All times listed are Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) 

• The livestream will begin 30 minutes to an hour before the programming, to give you time to test your connection.

• Throughout the livestream programming and pre-session and post-session shows, we are excited to offer live polls, a live chat, Q & A, behind-the-scenes looks, ministry team interviews, man–on–the–street interviews, additional videos, and more!

• There will not be small group time during the scheduled sessions–only as an option during Recharge/Break time. We encourage you to meet with your group prior to the livestream as well, for more opportunities for community building.  

Remember to:

• Keep your questions open-ended. Avoid yes/no questions.
• Be comfortable in the silence. Silence is okay in a small group. Sometimes people need time to process the questions before answering them.
• Avoid talking too much. This is a time for your group members to process their thoughts. If they have questions or need mentoring, give a shorter answer and let them know you can talk more together after the small group time. Remember that this is a journey and allow them to be where they are in the journey. Exemplify patience!
• Choose the questions you think are best for your group. The questions in the next section are meant to prompt you to ask further questions and facilitate conversation among the group. You do not need to ask every question. Feel free to ask follow-up questions as your group members process their experiences. You can ask even more specific questions about the keynote content.
• Focus on your small group. Your primary concern should be developing relationships with your small group. If everyone does this, each group member has someone that is focused on getting to know them.

Some Dos and Don’ts:

• Don’t be afraid; you’ve been given this small group for a reason.
• Don’t be dominant; this is your group members’ time to process the talks.
• Don’t push too hard; take note if someone isn’t talking and approach them outside of small group time.
• Don’t make your small group your identity.
• Don’t be afraid to let your group members sit in silence.
• Don’t move on from a fruitful conversation just to get through all the small group questions.
• Don’t get into individual conversations that exclude the rest of the group.
• Do love your group members for who they are and where they are.
• Do find out about the family lives and spiritual lives of your group members.
• Do seek out the quiet ones and get them involved.
• Do listen more than you speak; watch your group members and respond to their needs.
• Do create an accepting environment.
• Do be real; be yourself.
• Do pray for each member of your small group.
• Do model the behavior you expect from your group members.
• Do ask open-ended questions that need more than a one-word answer.
