    For my Parish Youth-Led Mass (with singers, piano, guitars and drum kit):
    GATHERING: Prepare The Way (Brian Boniwell – GA-284)
    ADVENT CANDLE LIGHTING: Christ, Circle Round Us (Dan Schutte) (Chorus only)
    PSALM: Colin D. Smith
    GOSPEL ACCLAMATION: Litany of The Word (Bernadette Farrell) (Verses 5-8)
    OFFERTORY: Like A Shepherd (AOV1-160)
    PARTS OF THE MASS: Rivers Youth (Emmanuel Worship)
    COMMUNION: Beautiful Is Your Love (Josh Blakesley, Sarah Hart and Marc Byrd)
    REFLECTION: Found (Emmanuel Worship)
    RECESSIONAL: My Lighthouse (Rend Collective)

    I’d wanted to use Beautiful Is Your Love ever since I heard it at the APMN & NLC Conference, so I was very glad we got to include it on Sunday. It went really well and we even had one of the musicians play viola player for the song, as well as for Found, which just made it sound beautiful. We did change every “I” and “my” and “me” to the plural form but it didn’t at all affect the lyrics’ flow/poetry and we ended up repeating the chorus at the end to make the song long enough.

    We also shortened Found in comparison to Emmanuel Worship’s recording and we skipped the bridge in My Lighthouse.
