♫ Goodness Of God ♫
I love You, Lord
For Your mercy never fails me
All my days, I’ve been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
And in darkest night You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a Father
I’ve known You as a Friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God, yeah
And all my life You have been faithful, ohh
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God, yeah
‘Cause Your goodness is running after, it’s running after me
Your goodness is running after, it’s running after me
With my life laid down, I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
‘Cause Your goodness is running after, it’s running after me, oh-ohh
‘Cause Your goodness is running after, it’s running after me
Your goodness is running after, it’s running after me
With my life laid down, I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
‘Cause Your goodness is running after, it keeps running after me
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
Qari I
Il-Mulej hu Alla li jagħder u jħenn.
Eż 34, 4b-6.8-9
Qari mill-Ktieb tal-Eżodu
F’dak iż-żmien, Mosè qam filgħodu kmieni, u tala’ fuq il-muntanja tas-Sinaj, kif kien ordnalu l-Mulej, u ħa f’idejh iż-żewġ twavel tal-ġebel. Imbagħad il-Mulej niżel fi sħaba u waqaf hemm maġenbu; u xandar l-isem tal-Mulej. U l-Mulej għadda minn quddiemu u għajjat: “Jaħweh! Jaħweh! Alla li jagħder u jħenn; tqil biex jagħdab u kbir fit-tjieba u fil-fedeltà”.
Mosè minnufih inxteħet għal wiċċu fl-art, ta qima u qal: “Jekk jien tassew sibt ħniena quddiemek, Sidi, ħa jiġi Sidi ġo nofsna, nitolbok; għax dan hu poplu rasu iebsa. Aħfrilna ħżunitna u ħtijietna, u ħudna b’wirt għalik”.

Evanġelju
Alla bagħat lil Ibnu fid-dinja biex bih hija ssalva.
Ġw 3, 16-18
Qari mill-Evanġelju skond San Ġwann
F’dak iż-żmien, Ġesù qal lil Nikodemu: “Alla hekk ħabb lid-dinja li ta lil Ibnu l-waħdieni, biex kull min jemmen fih ma jintilifx, iżda jkollu l-ħajja ta’ dejjem. Għax Alla ma bagħatx lil Ibnu fid-dinja biex jagħmel ħaqq mid-dinja, imma biex id-dinja ssalva permezz tiegħu. Min jemmen fih ma jkunx ikkundannat; iżda min ma jemminx huwa ġa kkundannat, għax ma emminx fl-isem tal-Iben il-waħdieni ta’ Alla”.
Il-Kelma tal-Mulej
R/. Tifħir lilek Kristu
♫ Offertorju: Father, I want you to hold me ♫
Father, I want you to hold me
I want to rest in your arms today
Father, I want you to show me
How much you care
For me in every way
I bring all my cares
And I lay them at your feet
You are always there
And you love me as I am
Yes you love me as I am
Talba għat-Tqarbina tax-Xewqa
Ġesù, jiena nemmen li Inti tinsab tabilħaqq fis-Sagrament tal-Ewkaristija.
Irrid inħobbok fuq kollox u fuq kulħadd.
Inti taf li nixtieq nirċevik ġewwa fija.
Imma ġaladarba bħalissa ma nistax nilqgħek ġewwa fija sagramentalment,
nitolbok li tiġi fija spiritwalment.
Ejja għandi Ġesù tiegħi, biex jiena niġi għandek.
Ħeġġiġni bl-imħabba għalik biex f’ħajti u f’mewti jiena nemmen fik,
nitma’ fik u nibqa’ nħobbok għal dejjem.
Ammen
