It is but fitting to launch this demo album coinciding with our 12th Anniversary. Pasensiya na po sa boses namin ni Tito Jojo Thiam, isang taon akong humihingi ng tulong sa mga awitin na ito... kaya napilitan na akong tumugtog at umawit kahit na pilit. Open invitation na rin po ito to everyone who would like to improve on the songs just make sure Tito Gene gets the credit he deserve for all but one of these songs. Hey, don't forget to email me a copy... Many thanks in advance! FOR THE GREATER GLORY OF GOD! I'll be posting all songs in this blog, to browse the webpage... Here is the link Volume 2... coming soon! |
CHRISTIAN LIFE PROGRAM
Words: Gene Alvarado
Music: C2CD
Intro: D9-A9-G-A9
D-A-G-A
Christian Life Program is what it’s called
People think they’ll die out bored
Until the day you came and stay
Believe in God the speaker says
D-A-G-A
The sins you had the sins you knew
Was stirred up well inside of you
Shame you felt for what you do
You see your life flashed back to you
CHORUS:
D--G-A-D-Dsus
Like stream cold water pour down on me
My Lord your word cleanses me
I come to learn your love for me
There’s no beginning never ending
D-A-G-A
I stretched my hand and lift them high
For you my Lord I can’t deny
Salvation came to me I pray
On that spirit filled baptism day
D-A-G-A
Then I wonder what I shall do
To spread your word and your love to
I give my life and soul to you
Fulfill the promise I made with you
(repeat CHORUS)
D-A-G-A
Now CLP is at its end
We gathered all in one weekend
Dedicated servants all we come
Couples for Christ we did become

This would not happen to me
If I didn’t hear you calling me
Your words is like treasure found
That fill my life with love abound

Love my neighbor as I love you
Leave my old life and start anew

My life, my soul belongs to you
Forever and ever I promise you…..

YES TO YOU

CM7-Dm7-Em7-FM7
The day I knew my time has come
My life I see what I become
I see a man hang on the wall
His cross so big my sins befall
Lord I regret that it’s only now
I come to you and then I vow
Life is nothing compared to you
Who loved me so and gave me You
Yes to you I say out loud
Yes I say you made me proud
My life you changed I owe to you
My sweet Lord Jesus I love you
Yes to you I say it again
Yes I mean my sweet refrain
You lift me up among all men
Yes O Lord I say amen
Yes to you and yes again
Life I’ve lost now I regain
Help me Lord not to forget
To answer yes for all I can
Yes to you…

From Fr. Z:
Prayer to be Freed of the Seven Deadly Sins
O Jesus, meek Savior and Prince of Peace, implant in me the virtues of gentleness and patience. Let me curb the fury of anger and restrain all resentment and impatience so as to overcome evil with good, attain your peace, and rejoice in Your love.
O Jesus, Model of humility, divest me of all pride and arrogance. Let me acknowledge my weakness and sinfulness, so that I may bear mockery and contempt for Your sake and esteem myself as lowly in your sight.
O Jesus, Teacher of abstinence, help me to serve You rather than our appetites. Keep me from gluttony - the inordinate love of food and drink and let me hunger and thirst for Your justice.
O Jesus, Lover of purity, remove all lust from my heart, so that I may serve You with a pure mind and a chaste body.
O Jesus, Father of the poor, help me to avoid all covetousness for earthly goods and give me a love for heavenly things. Inspire me to give to the needy, just as You gave Your life, that I might inherit eternal treasures.
O Jesus, Exemplar of love, keep me from all envy and ill-will. Let the grace of Your love dwell in me that I may rejoice in the happiness of others and bewail their adversities.
O Jesus, zealous Lover of souls, keep me from all sloth of mind or body. Inspire me with zeal for your glory, so that I may do all things for You and in You.
O Jesus, my Merciful Redeemer, my Loving Savior, my Divine Healer, all this I humbly pray and ask in confidence, and filled with faith, hope and trust, in Your Holy and Mighty name, Amen
Thank You Jesus, Praise You Jesus, Bless You Jesus, I Love You Jesus

LENT: Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving
As you sit, reading these words, open your own hands before you...
Empty, open, outstretched hands are the hands of a beggar...
and before our God, we are all beggars...
before our God, we open our hands
and seek the peace that only God can give...
Lent is a time for hands:
lifted in prayer,
emptied to be filled,
reaching to help...
Are these my hands this Lent?
IHS MARCH 2010
"After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and said..." go back, because those who tried to kill the child are dead..." he went to the province of Galilee and made his home in a town named Nazareth. (Matt 2:19-23)
St. Joseph passed from the world with perfect faith and peace of heart, assisted by Mary and Jesus, sometime before the beginning of Jesus' ministry. St. Joseph is Patron of a Happy Death, Protector of Virginity, and Patron of the Universal Church.
