I Rejoiced

John Foley, SJ

I rejoiced when I heard then say: we go to God's own home.
And now are feet have stood within Your temple, Lord.

For the sake of Jerusalem, pray peace be in our walls.
And peace be in our homes, may God's own good be known.

For the sake of our friends and kin, pray peace be in our hearts,
For the sake of His own home, may God's own good be known in our hearts.

I Hear my Name

Manoling Francisco, SJ

Lord, I walked one cold night
And heard the wind call my name.
I closed my ears, still I heard
The call of the wind from within.

Lord, I'm weak and small.
What can I do for You, my Lord?
I fear to be called, to behold
Jerusalem awaiting me.

Lord, I heard my name,
And in shame I turned away.
But I felt so cold to be far from my Lord,
Far from You, my Lord.

Lord, I hear my name.
Now I go before You, my Lord.
If it is Your will,
Let it be, let it be.
Let me be what You will.
Let me do Your will.
