I DON'T WANT TO HURT ANOTHER MAN

I don't want to hurt another man
So keep distance while you can
For if you keep on taunting me
There is no way out can't you see

For I have a flirtatious nature
No matter how I tried to be demure
But if you insist on coming
How can I refuse my darling

OH SACRAMENT SO TRUE

Oh sacrament so true
Though unworthy of you
You touched me to tears
As The Holy Spirit reached my ears

My mind in torment during the mass
As the evil one came to pass
A soft voice invoking the lamb of God
A novice's holiness exorcized the devil I had

Father in Heaven, thank you for your son
With the Holy Spirit, three persons as one
Leading me to receive Holy communion
My unworthiness conquered by Jesus, with our reunion

I AM GONNA MARRY A RICH MAN YOU SEE

Don't you ignore me
Or you will be sorry
I am gonna marry a rich man you see...
And our bank account will be a billion and three

The wedding reception will be in his island
Guests will be flown including a band
I will make sure you'll not be invited
And in the guest list be omitted

SAMPU-SAMPERANG MGA CRUSH

Sampu-samperang mga crush
Hindi makayanang maging wagas
Bulsa tuloy ay butas-butas
Kakasugal sa alas

Hindi makayanang maging tapat
Tibok ng iisang puso hindi sapat
Alinlangang hindi nawawala
Salawahang minumutya

HERE I COME AGAIN

Here I come again
Dreaming of my men
Who caught my attention
Lovesick blues in remission

Here I come again
Lovenotes from my pen
Like a thrilled teenager
Bubbling with laughter

THANK YOU FOR THIS MOMENT LORD

Thank you for this moment Lord
For this nook, away from the world
At peace with self and with you
I feel my heart beating for a love so true

For you created us out of love
Reaching to us from above
Love felt more through your son
Thank you, Oh Holy one

LET ME BE WORTHY AGAIN

Lord, let me be worthy again
To offer you praise through my pen
Let not ill feelings destroy me
Let me be always in my path to Thee

Jesus, guide me always with your Spirit
That I may pass on to the neighbors I meet
Rich or poor, each with our role in your plan
Make us all worthy of You, Oh Holy One
