Send Your Blessings Upon Us

"Send Your Blessings Upon Us" is a bright, welcoming invocation that gathers the congregation into a spirit of worship. Written with a lively, rhythmic drive, the song opens with a direct declaration of purpose: the choir and the people are present in the sanctuary, hearts full of joy, ready to lift up God's name. It carries the eager expectation of a community asking for grace right at the beginning of the Mass.

Choirs often use this piece as an Entrance hymn, where its steady tempo helps guide the procession to the altar. The verses walk through different intentions—asking for the grace to worship in spirit and truth, praying for the ability to love one another, and concluding with a strong Trinitarian doxology. Each verse naturally flows back into the central plea of the refrain, creating a continuous wave of prayer that grounds the liturgy in hope and reverence.
