Offertory Anthem Panis angelicus Cesar Franck
      The bread of angels
      is made the bread of men,
      The bread of heaven
      Is the final metaphor.
      What a wonder!
      A poor man partakes of the Lord,
      a poor and humble servant.

      One in Three,
      That Thou may visit us
      as we now worship Thee;
      and lead us on the pathway,
      That we at last may see
      the light wherein Thou dwellest.
Doxology OLD 100TH
      Praise God from whom all blessings flow;
