INI MINI MINY MOE

Ini mini miny moe
Who will win my heart
who will be in woe
Who will be torn apart
Or who will I love so
With whom will I have a start
Or who will go

Ini mini miny moe...

JUST THE THOUGHT OF YOU

Just the thought of you makes me smile
Forgetting my woes even for a while
Separated by many years by choice
Heeding the call of my conscience's voice

Other men's attention made me forget
That you have captivated my heart the time we met
Once young and loving you from a distance
When you won't even throw me a glance

Once more my feelings for you ease the hurt
As I hold back the tears that seem to start
A prince by composure and by character
Remembering you once more, a glance at forever

LORD THAT CAUSES THE WIND TO BLOW

Lord that causes the wind to blow
Set this heart of mine aglow
That I would set my sail to your will
And renounce everything that is evil

Lord that causes the wind to blow
Let the wind carry the seeds I did sow
To fertile soil that the seeds will grow
Into a tree with all the grand show

A show of flowers in full bloom
That will erase all the gloom
A show of a host of robin's nest
Giving a tired traveller's eyes some rest

LAMB OF GOD

IF THERE IS ONE GOOD SOUL IN YOUR HOME, GOD WILL SPARE YOUR HOUSEHOLD FROM DESTRUCTION...i believe this is what Genesis 18:32 and Exodus 12 is telling us....In Genesis 18:32, God said..."For the sake of the righteous 10, I will not destroy Sodom and Gomorrah..."...In Exodus 12, As God has instructed, the israelites were to mark their doors with the blood of a sacrificial perfect spring lamb, for their household to be spared from the wrath of God. That is why we sometimes say to others "please pray for me"...and maybe, this could explain the mystery behind of saints interceding for us, as we have in the Catholic faith...

IT CAME UPON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR

It came upon a midnight mass so clear
The voice of angels I wanted to hear
Bearing good tidings to my soul
Making pieces of dreams so whole

The voice of heaven coming upon me
Making me free from all uncertainty
Giving me the mission He wanted me to do
Lord I am your servant saying "yes" to you

Let no doubt or evil distract me
On following what you want me to be
Let your Holy Spirit be my armor
When danger will lurk at my door

DID YOU DO A GOOD DEED TODAY

Did you do a good deed today?
To show your love in every way
Is Jesus reigning in your heart
Are you willing from sin to depart

Did you touch someone with kindness
to pray that God him will bless
to forego hatred, malice and envy
And offer to God love for the enemy

INGGIT LANG YAN MARE KO

Inggit lang yan mare ko
yang dinadalang galit mo
Lahat ng aking ginagawa
ay iyong minamasama

Ngayon alam ko na ang problema
Sa tinagal-tagal ng pagsasama
Dahil sa iyo ay walang lumiligaw
Kung hindi umaaligid na langaw
