Fr. Bill’s CD Lyrics
Priest of Mine: Our High Priest
(by Fr. Bill Quinlivan and Fr. Kevin Scallon, CM)
Allelu-Alleluia!
Allelu-Alleluia!
Chorus:
Jesus, our High Priest
Strengthen our brethren
Make them firm in faith
Allelu-Alleluia!
Allelu-Alleluia!!
Approaching in awe,
Your most perfect sacrifice
Abundance of food for the journey
Profound adoration
We sing from humble hearts
Accompanied by myriads of angels
With the saints we bow down in your presence
Sheer delight to be found in your gaze!
Chorus:
Jesus, our High Priest
Strengthen our brethren,
Make them firm in faith
Allelu-Alleluia!
Allelu-Alleluia!!
O Lord open the ears of our hearts
To the pray of your Spirit within us
Make us yearn for the courts of house
The altar of your holy Temple
Give heed to our prayer and our pleading
To our praise in your Church night and day!
Allelu-Alleluia!!
Allelu-Alleluia!!
