 St Andrew Gloria 

 Reading I:

Psalm 95   Go into the world, alleluia, and teach all people alleluia.

 O sing a new song to the Lord, sing to the Lord, all the earth. 
O sing to the Lord, bless his name.  Proclaim his help day by day.
Go into the world, alleluia, and teach all people alleluia.

Tell among the nations his glory and his wonders among the peoples.
It was the Lord who made the heavens, his are majesty, state, and power.
Go into the world, alleluia, and teach all people alleluia.

 Give the Lord, your families of peoples, give the Lord glory and power.
With justice he will rule the world, he will judge the peoples with his truth.
Go into the world, alleluia, and teach all people alleluia.

 Reading II:

  Alleluia, alleluia.  Alleluia, alleluia.  
I am the way, the truth and the life. 
No-one can come to the father except through me. 
Alleluia, alleluia.  Alleluia, alleluia.  

 Gospel: Luke

The Preparation  of Gifts:  Take, O take me as I am; summon out what I shall be       

St Gregory Sanctus and Memorial and Lamb of God 

 The Invitation:
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood, says the Lord,
will live in me and I in him, says the Lord, says the Lord.

 Be still and know that I am God.
I am the Lord that healeth thee.
In thee, O Lord, I put my trust.
