Open Hand


In the morning-I will stretch out
hands to receive blessing from
you,
in the mid-day-
I will come to you with open
hand for ship load of goodness,
at the night-
I will bow down before you to
say "THANKS" for your unfailing
love and kindness.

With appreciative mind-
I will come to your temple-
with sacrifice;
with heart full of joy-
I will bless you among
people of same mind,
with happiness-I will roll
out drums and tambourine
to sing your praise.

With cymbals and harp,
I will worship in your
courtyard, and with horn
I will herald your glory and
greatness among gods.

My faith in you will never
diminish,
and the trust-I have in you
will never wane;
when-I wake up-each day
see your handiwork,
the planetary heaven, oceans
rivers, mountains, cliffs, animals,
domestic and wild;
I'm assured-you live-
forever.

WHO IS JESUS?


Jesus is the prince of peace
He is the alpha and Omega
The lord of lords, king of kings
He is the son of the most high God

Jesus is the lover of my soul
He is the one who died on the cross
So I might be made whole
He takes care of all my need

Jesus restores broken home
He heals the sick and raise the dead
He protects man from all manner of evil
He gives rest to the heart that is heavy ladened

When Jesus comes into a man's life
His world never remain the same again
He takes away the darkness lingering in his heart
And plant a light that is eternally bright

Jesus feeds the hungry, made the blind to see
If you are looking for a friend, faithful and holy
Whom would never disappoint you
Search no more, Jesus is the one you seek

A NEW WORLD


A new world
This is what I seek
There is too much tyranny
The church is deprived of love

Underneath the sunrise
There is a little child starving
There is a girl child unprotected 
From the cruelty of humanity

Everywhere I looked, there is strife and conflicts
But how long are we going to live like this
Indulge in hateful gathering of despised
Dislodged, misguided and reckless youth

It is not about racist and inequality
It is not about taking up arms to war
We have to stop wearing forged faces
Fight the pestilence threatening the unborn

You and I knows this is true
Despite we may refuse to acknowledge this
Do not you think we deserve a better world?
A world children can live in peace and hamony
