Today, we attended Ss Alban & Stephen Parish Mass for the Feast of the Ascension. Ascension Day falls 40 days after Easter and is the day that Jesus ascended into Heaven after telling his disciples to wait for the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Year 5 led the readings and prayers, and the whole school joined in with the lively worship song, ‘Lord I lift Your Name on High’. Father John reminded us what it means to be a disciple.
It was a very special experience to share in Communion together with the Parish. Well done to Year 5 for their contribution to the Mass.
Lord, I lift Your name on high
Lord, I love to sing Your praises
I’m so glad You’re in my life
I’m so glad You came to save us
You came from heaven to earth to show the way
From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay
From the cross to the grave
From the grave to the sky
Lord, I lift Your Name on high
