--

you are the peace
that guards my heart
my help in times of needs

you are the hope
that leads me on
and brings me to my knees

for there i find You waiting
and there i find release
so with all my heart i'll worship
and unto You i sing

for You alone deserve all glory
for You alone deserve all praise
Father we worship and adore You
Father we long to see Your face




i just came back from the hospital and there she is; lying on the bed
breathing with the help of the oxygen mask
pain grips her like how fear grips my heart

i remembered popo asking for her favourite food just before she passed on
mother asked for tuna today
i watched her intently as she takes each bite
fighting to hold back the tears which were threatening to fall
even as i wiped her mouth for her

i sat down next to her
massaging her hand which had grown enormously large due to water retention
wondering how long more i can do this for her


i need courage to believe
steel of the soul
a backbone christian


by Your stripes, she will be healed.
