HOLY SACRIFICE ft. The Virtual Chorale Lyrics

In the house of God

The house of our Father

We have gathered for the Holy Sacrifice

Where Christ is the Priest and Victim

Calvary is here

This is the same sacrifice

But this, not bloody like on Calvary,

Yet the same Sacrifice

In the house of God

The house of our Father

We have gathered for the Holy Sacrifice

Where Christ is the Priest and Victim

On single sacrifice

That of Christ and of the Eucharist

One and the same Victim, Christ

Offered now through the priest.

In the house of God

The house of our Father

We have gathered for the Holy Sacrifice

Where Christ is the Priest and Victim

Holy Sacrifice of the Church

Sharing in the offering of her Head

In the Eucharist the Sacrifice of Christ becomes

That of the members of his Body

In the house of God

The house of our Father

We have gathered for the Holy Sacrifice

Where Christ is the Priest and Victim

Thanksgiving, it is thanksgiving

For the whole of creation

All that we are, all that we have

A sacrifice of praise to God the Father

In the house of God

The house of our Father

We have gathered for the Holy Sacrifice

Where Christ is the Priest and Victim

This Holy Sacrifice

A communion with the Virgin Mary and the Saints

For the souls in Purgatory

That they may enter into endless bliss

In the house of God

The house of our Father

We have gathered for the Holy Sacrifice

Where Christ is the Priest and Victim

Christ is the Victim

Christ is the Priest

Christ is the Altar

So, it is a perfect Sacrifice

In the house of God

The house of our Father

We have gathered for the Holy Sacrifice

Where Christ is the Priest and Victim

We are offering this Sacrifice

With Christ and through Christ

In union with the Holy Spirit

Giving glory to the Father Almighty
