Life as it is

It's the first post of the year. And, in a week's time, I will turn 27. Wow. Time flies. I was only 21 when I first established this new profound love of mine; my blog, which I gradually left unattended. While browsing through old posts, I couldn't stop thinking of how I used to have so much of passion in writing but as time goes by and as I slowly get drowned in the hectic life of adulthood, I realize I have not paused to get a good look of life and happenings around me. Count your blessings they say. 

Well, here are some highlights and milestones of events transpired in the past five (missing) years.

KuasaMu - Bunga Citra Lestari lirik

Dalam keheningan kubersimpuh
Kubuka lembaran-lembaran kitabMu
Kutemukan damai membaca sabdaMu
Tuhan kumemohon, Tuhan kumemohon
Pancarkan cahaya di hidupku

Chorus:
Tuhan kupercaya
Engkau pasti telah merencanakan yang terbaik
Untuk diriku
Agar ku tak jatuh dan s'lalu ada di jalanMu

Tak perlu kulihat tanpa kumendengar
Dapat kurasakan, s'lalu kurasakan
Betapa besarnya kuasaMu

Chorus:
Tuhan kupercaya
Engkau pasti telah merencanakan yang terbaik
Untuk diriku
Agar ku tak jatuh dan slalu ada di jalanMu

Bridge:
KepadaMu kumeminta, kumenyembah, kubersujud...

Chorus:
Tuhan Aku percaya
Kau pasti berikan 
Telah kau sediakan semua
Bagi hambaMu
Tanpa Kau bedakan ooo...

Tuhan jangan biarkan hatiku mengeluh
Meragukan rahmatMu
Tuhan hanya Engkaulah penuntun langkahku
Tuk s'lalu tetap di jalanMu
Ada di jalanMu

Flaws to flairs

// I love you from your flaws to the flairs // 

Do u dig jazz?

If you do, check this out. Appreciating the talents of a jazz-based band hailing from Indonesia - PURE. Credits to Paul Stewart for introducing their music to me. Thank youuu... Ya tuhayyy paul.. P/s ini lagu rohani. It's funkylicious and awesomelicious the very first time listening to it. The second, third and so on will go down in history.. It becomes a fetish. The next thing I know, I was humming to the tune without my knowing.



Mari bernyanyi bersama-sama. :-)

PURE-Ku Skarang MilikMu

Reff:

T'lah kupastikan 

Tuk kutinggalkan

Smua hidupku yang tlah berlalu

Berlari-lari menuju hidup yang baru 

Verse 1:
Yang ku mau hanyalah diriMu
Slalu mengisi hari-hariku
Yang kurindu kembali padaMu
Kalaku telah menjauh dariMu

Pre-chorus:
Sesungguhnya Kau sangat berarti
Kutak mau lagi jauh dariMu

(Reff)

(Repeat verse 1, pre-chorus, reff)

Teringatku kesempatan 'tuk memulai kembali

(Reff)

T'lah kupastikan 

Tuk kuserahkan

Smua hidupku hanya untukMu

Berlari-lari menuju hidup yang baru

T'lah kupastikan 

Tuk kutinggalkan

Smua hidupku yang tlah berlalu

Bawalah ku bersamaMu

Ku skarang milikMu

My first classic phone, lost in the unwavering battle of mere carelessness.

In Love With You

by Gen B

Im so in love with You
My Lord, my Saviour
In Your time, You have made everything
So beautiful and meaningful

I cannot imagine life without You
Empty like a heart without a hope
Your spirit teach my soul to live
With a grateful heart day by day

Reff:
Because of You
My heart is filled of joy
It's a blessing
You came into my life
No matter what
That stands in my way
You're always in my heart

And You'll be there for me through
good and bad times
And my hope will never disappear
I fly like a bird so free
Nothing will ever keep us apart

(Reff)

No matter what
You're always in my heart
You're always in my life
You're always in my heart

*We all have a song that can personally connect to us right through the heart. This one does on me. :) *

A Prayer For Today

Our Father who art in Heaven,

Hallowed be Thy name.

Thy Kingdom come.

Thy will be done,

On earth as in Heaven.

Give us today our daily Bread.

And forgive our sins,

As we forgive each one of those

Who sins against us.

And lead us not to the time of trial,

But deliver us from evil.

For Thine is the Kingdom,

The power and the glory.


Amen.
