Songs for Mass of November 8, 2013
Gathering Song
Blest Be the Lord
Refrain
Blest be the Lord; Blest be the Lord;
The Lord of mercy, the God who saves.
I shall not fear the dark of night,
Nor the arrow that flies by day.
1. He will release me from the nets of sinful men.
He will protect me from their wicked hands.
Beneath the shadow of His wings I will rejoice
To find a dwelling place secure.
2. I need not shrink before the terrors of the night,
Not stand alone before the light of day.
No harm shall come to me, no arrow strike me down,
No evil settle in my soul.
