This Sunday we celebrate the Triumph of the Cross of our Saviour
over sin, suffering and death ..
We venerate your Cross, O Lord
We celebrate your Glorious Resurrection
for by means of the Tree, joy has come into the whole world – Alleluia!
As this worship song reminds us:
‘I’m trading my sorrows, I’m trading my shame,
I’m trading my sickness, I’m trading my pain –
I’m laying them down for the joy of the Lord’
All through the power and Victory Christ won for us on the Cross.
Sing along now and if you can, join us as we sing these words live at Mass:
I’m trading my sorrows
I’m trading my shame
I’m laying them down for the joy of the Lord
I’m trading my sickness I’m trading my pain
I’m laying them down for the joy of the Lord
Refrain Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord, Amen
I am pressed but not crushed,
Persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed
I am blessed beyond the curse
For His promise will endure
That His joy’s gonna be my strength
Though the sorrow may last for the night, His joy comes with the morning
