Personal Post #1

I've decided finally to start posting my own personal thoughts on this blog after abandoning my friendster blog for the longest time. Maybe this is because it's the time of year where I start thinking back over the past year, now that it's only 12 days to the first A-level paper.

How hectic my life has been... Ok, it's just in some ways. After my last paper in SPM, I had to rush straight off to the ASEAN scholarship selection test, which landed me here. 5 days after my last A-level paper, my family is coming and I will, of course, keep them company. The day after they leave will then be the start of the JPA Kem Birotatanegara. I will have to pack and evacuate all my stuff from the boarding school within the space of about 3 days and then I will vanish from the boarding school, probably for good.

Overall, this year has been a good year. I've become a bit more mature, experienced more emotions, made some new friends, learned many lessons. But the one thing that angers me now about myself is my own reluctance to study really hard... I know it's the last lap, I know it's the crucial period, but why can't I get myself to focus?

I'll Go Through The Fire For You

And Lord I give my life
As an offering to You
To be purified as gold
According to Your will
O Lord
Make my life count for You
I'll go through the fire for you

You're All I Want

Draw me close to you
Never let me go
I lay it all down again
To hear you say that I'm your friend

You are my desire
No one else will do
No one else can take your place
To feel the warmth of your embrace

Help me find the way
To bring me back to you

Chorus:
You're all I want
You're all I ever needed
You're all I want
Help me know you are near

How could I live without You

How could I live without you
How could I survive
Without your love
Without your touch
You're the one who heals me
Cleanses my heart
And sets me free

Now I come right before you
With my hands lifted up
And my heart humbly bowed
At your work on the cross
As you hung there and died
You were paying the price
For my life
For my life

For Your love is higher than the heavens
Deeper than the sea
And all I want is You in my life
No one else can satisfy my soul
Make me feel this way
Only You Lord
Only You

You have been good

If I never get to see another rainbow
Or share another laugh with a friend
If I never stand barefoot by the ocean
Or get to kiss my child good night again

If I never have another prayer that’s answered
Or have another blessing come my way
If this is all I know of heaven's kindness
Father, I would still have to say

Chorus:
You have been good
You have been good
I am in wonder how it could be
You have been good
You've been so good
In so many ways
You've been good to me

You have shown me mercy upon mercy
Grace upon grace, time after time
And I know all too well what I'm deserving
Yet You are still so patient and kind

Bridge:
If suddenly it all were ended
And Your blessings disappeared
Looking back over a lifetime
The evidence is clear

Won't You Lord

Won't you Lord
Take a look at our hands?
Everything we have
Use it for your plan

Won't you Lord
Take a look at our heart?
Mould it refine it
As you set us apart

We want to run to the altar
And catch the fire
To stand in the gap
Between the living and the dead

Give us a heart of compassion
For a world without vision
We will make a difference
Bringing hope to our land

Come Holy Spirit 2

Come Holy Spirit
Fall afresh on me
Fill me with your power
Satisfy my needs

Only you can make me whole
Give me strength and make me grow
Come Holy Spirit
Fall afresh on me

Come Holy Spirit

Come Holy Spirit, fall on me now
I need Your anointing, come in Your power
I love you Holy Spirit,
You're captivating my soul,
And every day, I grow to love you more...

I'm reaching for your heart
You hold my life in your hands
Drawing me closer to you
I feel your power renew

Nothing compares to this place
Where I can see you face to face
I worship you in spirit and in truth
