Ascension Catholic Parish
Sacrament of Confirmation
February 11th, 2021
6:00 PM
To all who join us to celebrate the
Paschal Mystery and Holy Eucharist:
Welcome!
INTRODUCTORY RITES
Opening Song: Send Out Your Spirit
Refrain
O God, send out your Spirit; renew the face of the earth.
O God, send out your Spirit; renew the face of the earth.
1. We bless you, O God, for you are so great. Your Spirit uncovers hidden beauty and grace. Though times
we deny all the pain and the tears, your Spirit empowers us and soon we face our fear.
2. Ev’ry prayer we pray, sacred word, sacred rite, is for the ones who are left waiting outside. Ev’ry sermon
we preach, ev’ry Spirit-filled tune; Love says, “Remember why we do the things we do.”
3. Ev’ry time a person reaching out is turned away by the racist prejudicial attitudes of hate, we are called to
break the silence, sanctioning the shame, stepping cross the lines of this sometimes unholy game.

world, receive our prayer; You are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For You alone are the
Holy One, You alone are the Lord, You alone, are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in

Communion Songs: Holy Spirit, Come To Me & Spirit Fall (next page)
The Holy Eucharist is the most important of the seven sacraments because, in this and in no other
sacrament, we receive the very body and blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ. Innumerable
precious graces come to us through the reception of Holy Communion. Catholics are called forward
to receive communion.
If you are non-Catholic, please know that you are welcome to come forward with arms crossed over
the chest to receive a blessing.
As you come forward to receive Holy Communion, please maintain social distancing. Holy
Communion will be distributed by coming forward through the side aisles and returning to your seat
through the center aisle. We will start first with the center pews, from front to back, then the pews
closest to the windows, from back to front. Holy Communion will be brought to those who are
unable to come forward at the end. You are not obligated to receive Holy Communion today at
Mass. If you are uncomfortable to receive, you may pray the Act of Spiritual Communion.
Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself
wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
Prayer After Communion
5Holy Spirit, Come To Me
1. Holy Spirit, come to me; open my eyes to you. Holy Spirit, come to me; open my eyes to you.
Refrain
That I may know Jesus, and I seek his face. That I may hear his voice when he calls out my name.
2. Holy Spirit, come to me; open my ears to you. Holy Spirit, come to me; open my ears to you.
3. Holy Spirit, breathe in me; open my life to you. Holy Spirit, breathe in me; open my life to you.
4. O my Jesus, live in me; I give my life to you.

Spirit Fall
Refrain
Spirit fall Spirit fall, Holy Spirit fall, fall on me
Like a mighty wind light the fire again, come and breathe Your breath on me
Like a mighty wind light the fire again, come and breathe Your breath on me
Oh come magnify the Son, Savior of the world the hope for ev'ryone.
Oh come magnify the Son, Savior of the world the hope for ev'ryone
