- Be of good cheer I have overcome the world
"These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” John 16: 33
LYRICS:
You help us through and persevere
In our trials with patience and good cheer, You overcame the world and our enemy As our brother - you loved us perfectly
You showed us how to be Holy
As our Father would love us to be
And in your passion, you showed how to endure In your Father’s love and will in prayer pure
You gave us the beatitudes for us to be
Aware of the allure of pride and self-sufficiency Your saints show us how to be holy
Each in their own way to live in joy and be truly free
Now in our knowledge and technology
We can do so much more in all of history This can lead us to God’s praise and charity Or to inordinate pride and self-idolatry
Now many ideologies throughout history
Have come and gone lacking in truth for all to see Now we who know and follow you sincerely
You who are the truth can live fully and free
You show us how to be Holy
As our Father loves us to be
And in our trials, you show us how to endure In your Father’s love and will in prayer pure
Glory to The Father and to the Son
And to the Holy Spirit three persons in one God

I just finished making changes to the piano-voice-guitar arrangement of "When We Go to Mass" – a song for faith formation for kids. Look for it soon!
