HEART'S DESIRE
Words and Music by Jeroel Maranan
November 12, 2013

You were there since the beginning of time
You are before all things
And in You, all things hold together

Who would have thought that You'd lay down Your crown
And heal all the wounds in me
On that cross, where love came down and saved me

Jesus, Your Name brings life
To my withered bones and weary heart
Once was lost, but now I'm found
And now I'm free to worship You

So, what can I say?
My Jesus, I love You
Lord, You are my one desire
You are my heart's desire
Be glorified, my Jesus, I love You
Lord, You are my one desire
You are my heart's desire

My broken pieces You've properly fixed
In vibrant harmonies
Faithful One, my life is Yours forever

In my weakness, You stand strong
In my sickness, You never let go
In my failures, forgiveness is complete

All my worries disappear
When Your presence draws me near
In Your arms, there's nothing more to fear

My God, You are so faithful, trustworthy and unchanging
Your majesty deserves eternal praise
Restorer and my Healer, the Mighty Great Provider
Your grace will satisfy for all my days

You are greater than any storm
You are higher than any throne
You are God that overwhelms my soul

You have risen from the grave
You have triumphed over death
You are God that overcome the world

My God You are so faithful, trustworthy and unchanging
Your majesty deserves eternal praise
Restorer and my Healer, the Mighty Great Provider
Your grace will satisfy for all my days

Nothing can separate me from the love You gave
Now I'm forever found in Your embrace
When all things fade away
Your Word will still remain
Lord, I will trust Your Name

My God - Abigael Cesar (January 17, 2014)

THIS LIFE IS YOURS
Written by Jeroel Maranan

How can I respond to the way You crafted me?
How can I respond?
For You have called me to be holy like You

How can I be pure in my thoughts and in my words?
How can I be pure?
For You have called me to be holy like You

Change my heart, make me pure and white as doves
Free from guilt and shame
Change my life, make me blameless in Your sight
To bring glory to Your Name

Then just in time You came
Saved my soul and cleansed my sins
A new life birthed by grace
And You have called me to be holy like You

Then You changed my heart, made me pure as white as doves
Free from guilt and shame
You changed my life, made me blameless in Your sight
To bring glory to Your Name

This life is Yours...

Oh You, are so holy, and so worthy, of all praise...

Who am I, that You'd gave Your life
For an undeserving like me?
Who am I, that the Son of God
Would suffer just for me to live?

It's Your love that bled for me
It's Your love that came and died for me
It's Your love upon that cross, that sets me free

It's Your love, It's Your love
It's Your love that sets me free
Be lifted high, in my life
Be lifted high

It's Your Love (June 7, 2014)

You said, You'll never let go of me
You said, You will always be with me
Amidst these sufferings in my life
I will still trust and hold on to You, God

'Cause I believe, Your love won't let go
Even if I fall
You'll never let go of me
Jesus, in You I have everything

I believe, Your love paid it all
On that wonderful cross
And showed me the way to live
Jesus, in You I have everything
I will overcome it all, because of You

I won't fear, 'cause You have won it all for me
I will stand, because You are the One who strengthens me
Amidst these sufferings in my life
I will still trust and hold on to You God

In Jesus' Name, and by His grace
I'll overcome...

SONG OF VICTORY

June 15, 2014

Jesus, He has conquered the grave
This is our God unshakable
Our sins, defeated at the foot of the cross
This is the truth unchangeable
This life may be full of troubles and fear
And make it seem impossible
But we know, nothing is too hard for our King
All things are possible

So, get up, arise and stand
Sing loud the song of victory
Echoing the angels cry
At the top of our lungs we shout

Woah, He stands victorious
The God of heaven and earth is on our side, forever and ever
Woah, He stands victorious
So take heart, 'cause in Jesus we have overcome!

Here we go, we're letting go of our fears and worries tonight
We will fight, with all our power and strength that comes from our God
We'll spread the love, we'll show the world how God can change our lives
So here we go, we will fight, we'll spread the love...

SALAMAT SA PAG-IBIG MO

Mula sa langit, dumating Ka sa lupa
Pinakita Mo sa amin, ang buhay na walang kasalanan
Itinuro Mo sa amin, ang tunay na pagmamahal
Dito ko nalaman, ang aking pagkukulang

Mula sa langit, Ika'y nagpakumbaba
Tinanggap ang parusa, na dulot ng aking mga sala
Tiniis ang pasakit at lahat ng kalungkutan
Upang aking makita kung gaano Mo ako kamahal

Diyos na gumawa ng lahat
Ay Siya ring binigay ang lahat
Upang ako ay maligtas

O Diyos, salamat sa pag-ibig Mo
Wala nang mas hihigit pa
Walang hahanapin pa
O Diyos, salamat sa pag-ibig Mo
Aking buhay na Iyong niligtas
Sa Iyo lamang itataas
Maghari Ka, O Diyos, sa aking buhay

Mula sa langit, bumaba Ka sa lupa
Inialay ang buhay, kapalit ng aking kamatayan
Tinupad ang pangakong sa'Yo'y may buhay na walang hanggan
Muli Kang nabuhay, at kaligtasa'y ganap

Diyos na gumawa ng lahat
Ay Siya ring binigay ang lahat
Upang ako ay maligtas

O Diyos, salamat sa pag-ibig Mo
Wala nang mas hihigit pa
Walang hahanapin pa
O Diyos, salamat sa pag-ibig Mo
Aking buhay na Iyong niligtas
Sa Iyo lamang itataas
Maghari Ka, O Diyos, sa aking buhay


Salamat Sa Pag-Ibig Mo (June 18, 2014)

LOVE WAS CRUCIFIED (ACOUSTIC)

O Holy One, forever I'm amazed
Of what You've done, and how Your love prevailed
Just to let me know You care

The God above, came down on earth to live
And clothed Yourself with frail humanity
Just to save a sinner like me

The greatest love that this world will know is Your love upon that cross

I'm saved and justified when Love was crucified for me
Now I live for Your glory alone
With nail-pierced hands and outstretched arms You've called me back to You
Now I belong to You

Once and for all, You bore my shame and guilt
With selfless heart, You gave all You can give
Just to break the chains in me

O grace divine, forgiver of my sins
You gave me life, ad by Your wounds I'm healed
Just to show Your love for me

To the One who forgives all my sins and failures, I lift up Your Name
To the One who is mighty to save and rescue, I lift up Your Name
To the One who can mend all the brokenhearted, I lift up Your Name
To the One who can heal all disease and sickness, I lift up Your Name

To the One who deserves all the highest praises, I lift up Your Name
To the One who will live and will reign forever, I lift up Your Name

You desire nothing but goodness
To those who trust in Your Name, O Lord
This life You gave is more than enough

As I step to this new season
Where mercies are fresh every morning
This life You gave is more than enough

Now I've come to this road of change
I will walk in Your righteousness
I'm secured as I put my faith in You, cause I know

Your kindness and Your love will never end
Your promises will never ever fade
Your faithfulness will always stay the same

Beautiful is Your will for me
Always good, perfect and pleasing

Let us sing a song of thanks and praise
For You, Almighty God, You never fail
In all the battles we've won
Through Your power alone
Faithful One, we lift our eyes to You

Looking back into Your faithfulness
Years have passed and we are still amazed
No one can do what You do
For there is no one like You
Faithful One, we lift our eyes to You

O Lord, what a faithful God!
There's no other name we will praise
O Lord, the only one true God
Forever You reign

Even though we lose our faith sometime
You are still gracious to stand by our side
You hear and answer us all
And You provide for our call
Faithful One, we lift our eyes to You

And surely You are with us
You never ever leave us
You will go before us
Wherever You lead us
For You, God, are unchanging
We'll hold on to Your promise
Forever we will trust in You Lord!

As we look ahead into our path
There may be obstacles, but we'll take heart
For You are faithful and true
I know that we'll make it through

THE CROSS
Words and Music by Jeroel Maranan and Patricia Rafols
March 28, 2015

Son of God, came down in flesh, so pure and holy
Your guiltless life has ransomed me, when I am hopeless
My bitter thoughts, my selfish deeds, nailed You on Calvary
You bore all the weight of my sin, to say You love me

O my life pursued by perfect love
Now this life will live by Your grace
You are crushed and pierced in exchange for my relief
Now I'm free!

At the cross You gave Your life for me
And cleansed my wrongs to right
At the cross You took those nails for me
Now I'm blameless in Your sight

This glorious exchange You did, now made me righteous
Forgiving all the trace of sin, when You have risen

Oh Jesus, Jesus, there's no greater love than Yours!

Forever written in my heart
Forever etched upon my mind
I will always remember what You've done
At The Cross

Original Key: Bb

The old has passed away
Behold the new has come
The mighty God of love
Has called us to His Son
In Jesus Christ our hope has come!

While we were dead in sin
God sent His only Son
To conquer death for us
And bring us back to life
Yes, Jesus Christ has overcome!

This gospel we proclaim
To every long lost child
And show the only Way
Into eternal Life
In Jesus Christ our only Lord
(alternate lyrics: Only through the Truth of Christ)

Caught in the love of the Father
Healed with the sound mind of Christ
Filled with the power of the Holy Spirit
Now we are ready to change the world for

JESUS!
Let every nation shout the name of
JESUS!
As every nation share the love of
JESUS!
Let every nation bow to only
JESUS!
As every nation dance and praise Your Name!

The Holy God became
A perfect man to save
Into a cross He nailed
Our very guilt and shame
Yes, we are saved by grace through faith!

This love we can't contain
We have to share this now
And bring this news of hope
To every broken heart
Our mission is the whole world now!

Caught in the love of the Father
Healed with the sound mind of Christ
Filled with the power of the Holy Spirit
Now we are ready to change the world for

JESUS!
Let every nation shout the name of
JESUS!
As every nation share the love of
JESUS!
Let every nation bow to only
JESUS!
As every nation dance and praise Your Name!

Here we are, freely use us for Your glory
Send us, God, to the ends of the earth
We'll never stop 'til every tribe and tongue confess that Jesus is Lord!

This ransomed life will never be the same again
As we respond to this great cause of Christ
We'll never stop 'til every tribe and tongue confess that Jesus is Lord!

Until every nation worship only Jesus!
