    V. The  Lord  be  with  you. R. And  with  your  spir-­‐‑it.

    & œœ œ œ œ œœ œ œœ œ œ œ œ œœ
    V. Lift    up  your  hearts. R. We    lift  them  up  to  the  Lord.

    & œ œ œ œ œ œ œœ œ œ œ œ œ œ œ œœ
    V. Let  us  give  thanks  to  the    Lord  our  God. R. It    is  right  and  just.

    & œá á œ œ œœ œ œ á
    It  is  truly  right  and  just, our  duty  and    our  sal-­‐‑va-­‐‑tion, al-­‐‑ways  and

    ever the  memorial    of  the  Sac  -­‐‑  ri-­‐‑fice that  he  himself  of-­‐‑fered  to  you

    & á œ œ œœ œ œ œ á

    raised  this    al  -­‐‑  tar, which  we  dedicate  to  you    with  joy-­‐‑ful  praise.

    & œ á œœ œ œ œ á
    Tru-­‐‑ly  this  is  an  ex  -­‐‑  alt-­‐‑ed  place, where  the  Sacrifice  of  Christ  is  ever
    & œ œ œ œœ œ œ œ á œ œ œ œ
    of-­‐‑fered  in  mys-­‐‑ter-­‐‑y, where  perfect  praise  is    ren-­‐‑dered  to  you

    & á œœ œ œ œ œ œ á œ
    and  redemption    flows  forth  for  us. Here  is  prepared  the  table    of

        Here  the  faithful  drink  of

    your  Spirit from  the  streams  that  flow  from  Christ,  the    spir-­‐‑it-­‐‑ual

    liv-­‐‑ing    al -­‐‑ tar.
        And  so,  Lord,  with  all  the    An-­‐‑gels  and  Saints,

    & á œ œ œ á œ œ œœ œ œ
     
    we,  too,    give  you  thanks, as  in  exul  -­‐‑  ta-­‐‑tion  we ac-­‐‑claim:
