Steadfast Love

Your steadfast love extends to the heavens
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds
Your righteousness is like majestic mountains
And your wisdom like the depths of the sea
And you come to me

Filling my heart with your loving kindness
I find my peace in the shadow of your wings
I eat my fill from the abundance of your household
And I drink from the streams of rejoicing

You are my king

I Just Want To Be Where You Are

I just want to be where You are,
dwelling daily in Your presence
I don't want to worship from afar,
draw me near to where You are

I just want to be where You are,
in Your dwelling place forever
Take me to the place where You are,
I just want to be with You

I want to be where You are,
dwelling in Your presence
Feasting at Your table,
surrounded by Your glory
In Your presence,
that's where I always want to be
I just want to be,
I just want to be with You

I just want to be where You are,
to enter boldly in Your presence
I don't want to worship from afar,
draw me near to where You are

Oh, my God,
You are my strength and my song
And when I'm in Your presence
Though I'm weak You're always strong

I just want to be
I just want to be with You

Lift Up Your Hands

Lift up your heads, oh you gates

Swing open wide, you ancient doors

Let the King of kings take his rightful place

Make room, make way for the King of grace

Lift up your hands, open up your hearts

His victory over sin and death is ours

Let the King of kings take his rightful place

Make room, make way for our King of grace

Who is this King of glory, Lord of power?

His name is Jesus, our risen King

Who is this King so mighty, Lord of strength?

His name is Jesus, our risen King

Lift up your hands, open up your hearts

His victory over sin and death is ours

Let the King of kings take his rightful place

Make room, make way for our King of grace

Who is this King of glory, Lord of power?

His name is Jesus our risen King

Who is this King so mighty, Lord of strength?

His name is Jesus our risen King

Who is this King of glory, Lord of power?

His name is Jesus our risen King

Who is this King so mighty, Lord of strength?

His name is Jesus our risen King

King of glory, Lord of power

King of glory, Lord of power

King of glory, Lord of power

King of glory, Lord of power

We are the reason by Don Moen

As little children

We would dream of Christmas morn

Of all the gifts and toys

We knew we'd find

But we never realized

A baby born one blessed night

Gave us the greatest gift of our lives

We were the reason

That He gave His life

We were the reason

That He suffered and died

To a world that was lost

He gave all He could give

To show us the reason to live

As the years went by

We learned more about gifts

The giving of ourselves

And what that means

On a dark and cloudy day

A man hung crying in the rain

All because of love, all because of love

We were the reason

That He gave His life

We were the reason

That He suffered and died

To a world that was lost

He gave all He could give

To show us the reason to live

I've finally found the reason for living

It's in giving every part of my heart to Him

In all that I do every word that I say

I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him

We were the reason

That He gave His life

We were the reason

That He suffered and died

To a world that was lost

He gave all He could give

To show us the reason to live

He is my reason to live

God Is Good All the Time by Don Moen

God is good all the time
He put a song of praise in the heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night, His light will shine
God is good, God is good all the time

God is good all the time
He put a song of praise in the heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night, His light will shine
God is good, God is good all the time

If you're walking through the valleys
And there are shadows all around
Do not fear, He will guide you

He will keep you safe and sound
He has promised to never leave you
Nor forsake you, and His word is true

God is good all the time
He put a song of praise in the heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night, His light will shine
God is good, God is good all the time

We are sinners and so unworthy
Still for us He chose to die
Filled us with His Holy Spirit

Now we can stand and testify
That His love is everlasting
And His mercies, they will never end

God is good all the time
He put a song of praise in the heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night, His light will shine
God is good, God is good all the time

Though I may not understand
All the plans you have for me
My life is in your hands
And through the eyes of faint
I can clearly see that

God is good all the time
He put a song of praise in the heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night, His light will shine
God is good, God is good all the time

God is good all the time
He put a song of praise in the heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night, His light will shine
God is good, God is good all the time

Lead Me Lord - Gary Valenciano

Lead me Lord, lead me by the hand
And make me face the rising sun
Comfort me through all the pain
That life may bring
There's no other hope
That I can lean upon

Lead me Lord
Lead me all my life
Walk by me, walk by me across
The lonely road that I may face
Take my arms and let your hand
Show me the way
Show the way to live inside your heart
All my days, all my life

You are my light
You're the lamp upon my feet
All the time my Lord
I need You there
You are my light
I (just) cannot live alone
Let me stay 
By Your guiding love
All through my life
(Choro)
Lead me Lord
Lead me Lord
Even though at times
I'd rather go alone my way
Help me take the right direction
Take Your road
Lead me Lord
And never leave my side
All my days
All my life
You are my light
You're the lamp upon my feet
All the time my Lord
I need You there
You are my light
I (just) cannot live alone
Let me stay 
By Your guiding love
All through my life
You are my light
You're the lamp upon my feet
All the time my Lord
I need You there
You are my light
I (just) cannot live alone
Let me stay 
By Your guiding love
All through my life
All through my days
Lead me, Oh Lord
Lead me Lord

The Prayer (feat. Charlotte Church)

I pray you'll be our eyes

And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don't know

Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your Grace
To a place where we'll be safe
La luce che tu dai

I pray we'll find your light
Nel cuore restera
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarci che
When stars go out each night
L'eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'e
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace 

Give us faith so we'll be safe. 
Sogniamo un mondo senza piu violenza 

Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternita

La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E'il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a se
Another soul to love

Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child

Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera

"Blessings"

We pray for blessings, we pray for peace

Comfort for family, protection while we sleep

We pray for healing, for prosperity

We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering

And all the while, You hear each spoken need

Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops

What if Your healing comes through tears

What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near

What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise?

We pray for wisdom, Your voice to hear

And we cry in anger when we cannot feel you near

We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love

As if each promise from Your Word is not enough

And all the while, You hear each desperate plea

And long that we'd have faith to believe

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops

What if Your healing comes through tears

What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near

What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise?

When friends betray us

When darkness seems to win, we know

That pain reminds this hearts,

That this is not, this is not our home.....

It's not our home

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops

What if Your healing comes through tears

What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near

What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise?

What if my greatest disappointments,

Or the aching of this life,

Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy.

What if trials of this life,

The rain, the storms, the hardest nights

Are your mercies in disguise?

"Jesus Loves Me"

Yes Jesus loves me for the Bible tells me so
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are weak but he is strong

Yes Jesus loves me
Oh, yes Jesus loves me
Yes Jesus loves me for the Bible tells me so

Pressing on the up away
Always guide me Lord I pray
Undeserving, and stubbornly never fail to love me still

Yes Jesus loves me
Oh yes Jesus loves me
Oh yes Jesus loves me, for the Bible tells me so
Yes Jesus loves me, love
Oh yes Jesus loves me for the Bible tells me so
For the Bible tells me so

(Feels so good to know) that I'm never alone
See, sometimes I'm lonely but never alone
For the Bible tells, for the Bible tells
For the Bible tells me so

See I know that he loves me
Whether I'm right, whether I'm wrong

A New Year's Day

O Thou whose glory fills the heavens, 

Whose bounty clothes the earth,

To Thee a poem of thanks we raise

For blessings from our birth.

For that untiring love Thou dost,

From day to day renew,

O may it on our hearts descend

Like heaven-distilled dew.

For mercy great, unending still,

Which gave up to the grave

Thine only Son, the Sinless One,

Our sinful souls to save.

While entering on another year

Our cares on Thee we cast,

Beseeching aid in days to come

Which cheered us through the past.

That still the freedom may be ours

To kneel down in Thy sight,

And worship Thee at shut of day,

And in the morning light.

That from temptation's fatal paths

Thou turn our steps away;

And keep us from unholy thoughts

That lead the mind astray.

No more may lust of worldly wealth

Command thoughts that are thine;

Nor may we envy other's lot,

Or at our own repine.

Than all the riches earth can boast

Or gems beneath the sea,

We know the pious, humble heart,

More precious is to Thee.

How needful, then, to train our thoughts,

And fan the heavenly flame

Of faith, in the believing heart,

Triumphing o'er sin and shame

And holding by the Word, thou hast

For grace and guidance given,

Pass trough this world in holy fear,

True candidates for heaven.

Poem By Charles Moir

When a Child is Born

A ray of hope flitters in the sky

A tiny star lights up way up high

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas

The winds have changed whisper in the trees

And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn

This comes to pass when a child is born

A rosy hue settles all around

You've got the feel you're on solid ground

For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn

This comes to pass when a child is born

And all of this happened

Because the world is waiting

Waiting for one child

Black, white, yellow, no one knows

But a child that would grow up and turn tears to

laughter

Hate to love, war to peace

And everyone to everyone's neighbour

Misery and suffering would be forgotten forever

It's all a dream and illusion now

It must come true, sometimes soon somehow

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

When a child is born

Silent Night, Holy Night

Silent night, holy night,

All is calm, all is bright

Round yon virgin mother and Child.

Holy Infant, so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace,

Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holy night,

Shepherds quake at the sight;

Glories stream from heaven afar,

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!

Christ the Savior is born,

Christ the Savior is born!

Silent night, holy night,

Son of God, love’s pure light;

Radiant beams from Thy holy face

With the dawn of redeeming grace,

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.

Silent night, holy night

Wondrous star, lend thy light;

With the angels let us sing,

Alleluia to our King;

Christ the Savior is born,

Christ the Savior is born!

HOLY NIGHT

ALTERNATE TRANSLATION

Holy night, peaceful night!

Through the darkness beams a light

There, where they sweet vigils keep

O’er the Babe in silent sleep;

Resting in heavenly peace,

Resting in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holiest night!

Darkness flies and all is light!

Shepherds hear the angels sing;

“Hallelujah! hail the King!

Jesus, the Savior is here,

Jesus, the Savior is here.”

Holiest night, peaceful night!

Child of heaven, O how bright

Thou didst smile when Thou was born;

Blessèd was that happy morn,

Full of heavenly joy,

Full of heavenly joy.

HOLY NIGHT

ALTERNATE TRANSLATION

Translated from German to English by Jane M. Camp­bell, 1863.

Holy night! Peaceful Night!

All is dark, save the light

Yonder where they sweet vigil keep

O’er the Babe who in silent sleep

Rests in heavenly peace,

Rests in heavenly peace.

Holy Night! Peaceful Night!

Only for shepherds’ sight

Came blest visions of angel throngs,

With their loud alleluia songs,

Saying, Christ is come,

Saying, Christ is come.

Peace Of Mind

Is there no peace in this world,

No freedom from pain and worry,

Will there always be anxiety,

Over sins we cannot bury?

Our Holy God reminds us,

Work six days every week,

On the seventh day we shall rest,

And listen for Him to speak.

When we follow His commandments

And take time to hear His Word,

We refresh our mind and spirit

Our lives to under gird.

We need to seek Him often,

In a quiet place,

And chat with Him like family,

To find His cherished grace.

He wants to hear our voices,

Say, "I love and trust you, Father God.

Thank Him for His love and mercy,

And smile instead of sob.

He gets enormous pleasure,

From our sincere prayer,

When we treat like a real Father,

He goes with us everywhere.

Peace of mind is His gift,

To carry us through a cloudy day,

Spend all the time you can,

Along the straight and narrow way.

Make the time to meet with Him,

On this busy road of life,

And peace will heal your sorrows,

And free you from gloom and strife.

Power of Your Love

Lord I come to You

Let my heart be changed, renewed

Flowing from the grace

That i have found in You

And Lord I have come to know

The weakenesses I see in me

Will be stripped away

By the power of Your love

Hold me close

Let Your love surround me

Bring me near

Draw me to Your side

And as I wait

I will rise up like the eagle

And I will soar with You

Your Spirit leads me on

In the power of Your love

Lord unveil my eyes

Let me see You face to face

The knowledge of Your love

As You live in me

And Lord renew my mind

As Your will unfolds in my life

In living every day

By the power of Your love

And I will soar with You

Your Spirit leads me on

In the power of Your love

Steps To Happiness

Everybody Knows:

You can't be all things to all people

You can't do all things at once.

You can't do all things equally well.

You can't do all things better than everyone else.

Your humanity is showing just like everyone else's.

So:

You have to find out who you are, and be that.

You have to decide what comes first, and do that.

You have to discover your strengths, and use them.

You have to learn not to compete with others,

Because no one else is in the contest of *being you*. 

Then:  

You will have learned to accept your own uniqueness.

You will have learned to set priorities and make decisions.

You will have learned to live with your limitations.

You will have learned to give yourself the respect that is due.

And you'll be a most vital mortal.

Dare To Believe:

That you are a wonderful, unique person.

That you are a once-in-all-history event.

That it's more than a right, it's your duty, to be who you are.

That life is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish.

And we'll be able to stay one up on what used to get us.

May God Bless you and keep you safe,

by : Father Pat

His Wonderful Ways

This morning sun shines with its golden rays

Let your heart rejoice in wonderful ways

Belong to the Lord, continue to pray

Nothing will harm you the rest of your days

The Lord, He protects His children, that's so

His band of angels with trumpets they blow

They fly around us and therefore we know

That He is with us wherever we go

With Jesus inside, there is nothing to fear

No need to be scared or to cry a tear

My spirit rejoices for He is near

Accept His comfort, His voice you will hear

He says, "Don't be scared and loud we must sing."

As the angels make all of heaven ring

Their voices so pretty like birds in spring

Mighty our Father all hail to the King.

An uncertain in my brain

Never been aware of it

Never felt before

Never been weak, never …

Only a headache

That was clipped

Blessed me with gifted doctors,

With Loving family

Woke me up again …

Now inside my mind

Compexity of truth

Memories and thoughts

Never complains, tears have gone

Looks like a mystery

But life goes on

So I just wait and see

I’m enjoying living , uplifting

God loves me, and 

I love God! 

Everyday is the best time of my life!

‪You Raise Me Up

"You Raise Me Up" is a popular song in the inspirational mold. The music was written by Secret Garden's Rolf Løvland and the lyrics by Brendan Graham, a veteran songwriter from Ireland. The song has now been covered more than 125 times.

The song was originally written as an instrumental piece and titled "Silent Story." The melody is based on a traditional Irish tune, especially the opening phrase of its chorus.

I really love this song. This is one of my favorite gospel songs. 

I have watched , in television and in Youtube, and heard this beautiful song many times. Performed by many soulful singers , international and of course filipinos,  here in the Philippines. 

A special surprise performance by Groban, for Oprah Winfrey's 50th birthday, gave "You Raise Me Up" massive international prominence, and his recording was nominated for a 2005 Grammy award. Groban performed the song at the first Idol Gives Back Concert with the African Children's Choir.

On April 21, 2009, Celtic Woman performed "You Raise Me Up" on the popular American TV show Dancing with the Stars.

On August 3, 2009, Rhap Salazar rendered the song at the necrological service of former Philippine President Corazon Aquino

On December 11, 2009, Westlife performed it again at the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize concert celebrating US President Barack Obama.

On June 8, 2010, the song was used in a mash-up with Olivia Newton-John's "Magic" on the season 1 finale of Glee.

Here is the wonderful and beautiful Celtic Women, The Journey.

"You Raise Me Up"

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be. 

Here is one of my favorite american religious and soulful musician and songwriter ... Josh Groban.
