PARA SA'TIN ANG PASKO Lyrics

[Verse I]
Ang Pasko'y panahon ng pag-ibig
Hayaan mong sumabay sa hangin ang 'yong himig
Dapat tayong magsaya, 'pagkat isinilang na,
Ang magtatanggal ng ating ligalig

Kapatid ayain na ang 'yong pamilya,
Sama-samang magsimba't mag-noche buena,
Kahit na tuyo at itlog ang makita mong handa,
Ang mahalaga ay sama-sama

[Pre-chorus]
Kalimutan ang problema
Simulan mo nang bumangon, at magsilbing biyaya, dahil
Tayo ang mga tala,
At ang ningning ay nanggaling sa Diyos na lumikha

[Chorus]
Para sa'tin ang pasko,
Kaya't 'wag magmukmok kahit ikaw ay problemado, dahil
Liliwanag ang mundo,
'Pagkat ang ningning na taglay mo'y kaloob ng Diyos sa iyo

[Verse II]
Ang pasko'y 'di kailangang maging garbo,
'Di mahalaga kung may laman ang bulsa mo,
Dahil ang kapanganakan Niya,
ang tunay nga na diwa ng Paskong Pilipino

Kapatid halika na't umawit ka,
Sintunado man iyan pari'y biyaya,
Ang kinang na iyong taglay, ilabas at ialay
Para sa Diyos, at sa 'yong kapwa

[Repeat Pre-chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]

THIS SEASON Lyrics

[Verse]
This Christmas, I"ll be giving my all
These gifts that I'll be sharing, will be coming from my heart
This is the essence
Of God's never-ending love
This is our moment
To spend our lives with him

[Chorus]
Thank you my Lord for this season
Thank you for all that you've done
I'll share the love that you've given
I'll make them feel your presence
My Lord. 

[Repeat Chorus]

ANG NAG-IISANG TALA Lyrics

[Verse I]
Tayo ay magalak na 
Dumating na ang pag-asa
Sisibol na ang liwanag
Tayo'y tinatanglawan
Ng nag-iisang Tala
Mula sa kalangitan
Mula sa kalangitan
Ang Nag-iisang Tala
Mula sa kalangitan

[Chorus]
Wag nang mag-alala
'Pagkat ang pag-asa'y
Nadirito... (dito... dito...)
Ang tunay na saya
'Yong mararamdaman
Ngayong Pasko!
Tuwing Kapaskuhan
Siya ang talang
Nandirito... (dito... dito...)
Ang tunay na liwanag
Ay ang Tala ni Kristo

[Post-chorus]
Magdiwang!
Magalak!
At magsaya!
Pagkat dumating na ang tunay na pag-asa...
(4x)

[Verse II]
Tayo ay magalak na
Dumating ang Mesiyas
Sa sangkatauhan
Siya ang Haring isinilang
Sa isang sabsaban 
Ang hatid ay kaligtasan
Hatid Niya'y kaligtasan
Ang Nag-iisang Tala
Mula sa kalangitan

[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Post-chorus]

IYON AY PUPUNAN Lyrics

May mga nangangaroling 
Na dyan sa may tabi
Ngunit ang nais ko sana'y
Bumalik pa sa dati
Noong ang mga Pasko'y
May nakakasabik na himig
Malamig na panahon
Habang tinatayo ang Christmas Tree

[Pre-chorus]
Napagtantong may kulang
Kaya sa paskong ito, iyon ay pupunan

[Chorus]
Ihip na malamig na simoy ng hangin 
Di malaman ang gagawin nang ika'y mawala saking piling
Masisiglang panaho'y bigla nalang tumamlay
Bilis ng oras ay bumilis ng walang malay
Ohh... ohh...
Bilis ng oras ay bumilis ng walang malay

[Repeat Verse]
[Repeat Pre-chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]

Bilis ng oras ay bumilis ng walang malay
Ohh... ohh...

[Lyrics - Andre Jacques Tigno & Monica Dumlao | Voice - Andre Jacques Tigno | Instruments - Andre Jacques Tigno (via LMMS App for Windows) | Editing - Andre Jacques Tigno]

[Verse I]
Ang pag-asa’y naririto na...
Mundong ginagalawan ay lalaya na...

[Pre-chorus]
Mula sa pagsubok, pagsuko
Pagkadurog ng puso
Pagkahulog sa bitag
Ng kadiliman, at...
May bagong pag-asa
Sa ati’y biyaya
Panibagong  pagkakataon
Upang magsimula muli

[Chorus]
Ngayong Kapaskuhan
Tayo’y tinatawag na 
Lumapit na sa Kanya
Ang mundo ngayon
Ay lalaya na...
Papawiin Niya
Ang luha ng nakaraan
At bibigyan ka Niya 
Ng pag-asang magpatuloy pa...
Ngayong Kapaskuhan

[Verse II]
Ang pag-asa’y naririto na
(Naririto na... Naririto!)
Mundong ginagalawan ay lalaya na...

[Repeat Pre-chorus]

"Walang Katumbas" is a mellow and deep song written by Mharicris Caragos and Neil Lorenzo Ofrecio, together with their co-writers from 9-Excellentia.

[Lyrics - Mharicris Caragos & Neil Lorenzo Ofrecio |  Voice - Matthew Azarcon | Piano - Sheena Marie Santos | Violin - Cyril Kyle Oteyza | Beatbox - Ralph Jaison Peña]

[Verse I]
Kung ika'y patuloy na naglalakad
Sa mundong puno ng kadiliman
Liwanag di na masilayan
Nawalan ng pag-asa't makakapitan

Dumaan man sa maraming bagyo
At kung ika'y takot sa akin tumakbo
Magkaisa tayo, salubungin ang Pasko
Nang may pagmamahal sa'ting mga puso

[Chorus]
Buong paligid ay magliliwanag
At mababakas ang ngiti sa lahat
Ang Pasko natin ay walang katulad
Pag-ibig na handog ay walang katumbas

Sa Paskong Pilipino...

[Verse II]
Kung buhay man ay masyadong magulo
At tila wala nang mahingan ng saklolo
Buhayin pag-asa sa puso mo
Kalimutan ang lahat ng sakit nito

[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]

Halina't tayo ay magmahalan
At patatagin ang ating samahan
Pag-ibig ang ilaw sa gitna ng gulo
Banaag matapos ang bagyo...
Banaag matapos ang bagyo...
Banaag matapos ang bagyo...
