1st verse
They tell me Jesus died
For my transgressions
That He paid that price a long, long time ago
When He gave His life for me
On a hill called Calvary
But there’s something else I want to know

Chorus
Does He still feel the nails
Every time I fail
Can He hear the crowd cry “Crucify” again
Am I causing Him pain
Then I know I’ve got to change
I just can’t bear the thought of hurting Him.

2nd verse
It seems that I’m so good at breaking promises
And I treat His precious grace so carelessly
But each time He forgives
What if He re-lives
The agony He felt on that tree

Chorus 1x

Holy, holy
Holy is the Lord
Holy Holy
Holy is the Lord

Do You still feel the nails
Every time I fail
Have I crucified You Jesus with my sins
Oh I’m tired of playing games
I really want to change
I never want to hurt You again

Holy, Holy
Holy is the Lord
Holy, Holy
Holy is the Lord

Sometimes we make it harder than it is
We’ll take a perfect night
And fill it up with words we don’t mean
Dark sides best unseen
And we wonder why we’re feeling this way.

Sometimes I wonder if we really feel the same
Why we can be unkind
Questioning the strongest of hearts
That’s when we must start
Believing in the one thing that has gotten us this far.

Chorus
That’s what love is for
To help us through it
That’s what love is for
Nothing else can do it.
Melt our defenses
Bring us back to our senses
Give us strength to try once more
Baby, that’s what love is for.

Sometimes I see you
And you don’t know I am there
And I’m washed away by emotions
I hold deep down inside
Getting stronger with time
It’s living through the fire
And holding on we find

Chorus

Believing in the one thing
That has gotten us this far
That’s what love is for
To help us through it
That’s what love is for
Nothing else can do it.
Round off the edges
Talk us down from the ledges
Give us strength to try once more
Baby, that’s what love is for

That’s what love is for.
That’s what love is for
Melt our defenses
Bring us back to our senses
Give us strength to try once more
Baby, that’s what love is for.
That’s what love is for.
That’s what love is for.
That’s what love is for.

Unity
By: Joseph S. Djafar
Bagai Kau dan Bapa satu
Yesus kami pun mau tuk bersatu
Satu di dalam kasihMu
Penuhi rinduMu atas negeriku
[chorus]
Kini kami bersatu berdoa padaMu
Menyentuh hatiMu
Datang kemuliaanMu, slamatkan bangsaku
Slamatkan Indonesia Tuhan
(repeat)
(chorus) 2x

[Verse 1]
It’s been a long and winding journey, but i’m finally here tonight
Picking up the pieces, walking back into the light
Into the sunset of your glory, where my heart and future lies
There’s nothing like that feeling, when i look into your eyes…
[Bridge]
My dreams came true, when i found you
I found you, my miracle…
[Chorus]
If you could see, what i see, that you’re the answer to my prayers
And if you could feel, the tenderness i feel
You would know, it would be clear, that angels brought me here…
[Verse 2]
Standing here before you, feels like i’ve been born again
Every breath is your love, every heartbeat speaks your name…
[Bridge 2]
My dreams came true, right here in front of you
My miracle…
[Chorus]
If you could see, what i see, you’re the answer to my prayers
And if you could feel, the tenderness i feel
You would know, it would be clear, that angels brought me here…
[Bridge 3]
Brought me here to be with you,
I’ll be forever grateful (oh forever Faithful)
My dreams came true
When I found you
My miracle…
[Chorus]
If you could see, what i see, you’re the answer to my prayers
And if you could feel, the tenderness i feel
You would know, it would be clear, that angels brought me here…
Yes they brought me here…
If you could feel, the tenderness i feel…
You would know, it would be clear, that angels brought me here…

Wonderful song, wonderful lyric from Michael W. Smith to describe how wonderful is the Love of our God.
I have been unfaithful
I have been unworthy
I have been unrighteous
And I have been unmerciful

I have been unreachable
I have been unteachable
I have been unwilling
And I have been undesirable

Chorus:

Sometimes, I have been unwise
I’ve been undone by what I’m unsure of
But because of you, and all that you went through
I know that I have never been unloved

I have been unbroken
I have been unmended
I have been uneasy
And I’ve been unapproachable

I’ve been unemotional
I’ve been unexceptional
I’ve been undecided
And I have been unqualified

Chorus:

Unaware, I have been unfair
I’ve been unfit for blessings from above
But even I can see the sacrifice you made for me
To show that I have never been unloved

Casting Crowns - Voice of Truth
From the album Casting Crowns

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I’m in
Onto the crashing waves

To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He’s holding out His hand

But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I’ve tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. ‘Boy, you’ll never win!’
‘You’ll never win!’

Chorus:
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, ‘Do not be afraid!’
The voice of truth says, ‘This is for My glory’
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they’d have had the strength to stand

But the giant’s calling out my name
And he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I’ve tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again. ‘Boy you’ll never win!’
‘You’ll never win!’

But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don’t seem so high
From on top of them lookin’ down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me

I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth.

To everyone, especially to those who are preparing for exams soon, don’t worry too much that it distracts you from your exam. If there are voices telling you that you cannot pass the exam or you cannot solve a lot of problems in your life, do not be afraid, choose to listen and believe in the Voice of Truth instead. Don’t let what other people say affect your study.
Lastly, all the best for your exams

From Joseph soundtracks, here is “You Know Better Than I“
I thought I did what’s right,
I thought I had the answers
I thought I chose the surest road
but that road brought me here
So I put up a fight
and told You how to help me
Now, just when I have given up,
the truth is coming clear
You know better than I,
You know the way
I’ve let go the need to know why,
for You know better than I
If this has been a test,
I cannot see the reason
But maybe knowing I don’t know
is part of getting through
I try to do what’s best
and faith has made it easy
To see the best thing I can do
is to put my trust in You
For You know better than I,
You know the way
I’ve let go the need to know why
for You know better than I
I saw one cloud and thought that was the sky
I saw a bird and thought that I could follow
But it was You who taught that bird to fly
If I let You reach me, will You teach me ?
For You know better than I,
You know the way
I’ve let go the need to know why
I’ll take what answers You supply
You know better than I …
