One Love Song

Today was supposedly marked the halfway of my original permit to be able to stay in Singapore. I'm supposedly go to ICA (Immigration) to report myself and prolong the stay until the original November schedule. Of course things change now. I was already granted a PR and so today by grace I don't have to worry about it. Just in case you didn't notice, today is June 6th, 2006. Yeah, almost a triple six kinda deal. Even Hollywood has a movie out about it already. The OMEN... blah, watever, it's just another horror flicks, like there's not enough of those already.

Anyway, beside my obsession with movies (as Jay said, hehehe), I just would express my gratitude that I'm blessed. Problems both by my own making or by circumstances may come my way, but in everything I know that I'm never alone.

I'm very grateful for my dad's health and of course, to everyone who already prayed for him. And to everybody else who are facing storm in their lives now, just have faith that it too shall come to pass.

When I was still in US, I found this mainstream, or you can call it a secular song about love. But the lyrics touched my heart, it's as though the song was directed for my faith to God. I believe that God can use anything for His glory, well, this song is one example. It may mean different things to different people, but to me this song was a love song that's quite inspirational. It's just like that "You Raise Me Up" song. But I heard this song first before the Josh Groban's version during the Superbowl (I think) opening. This song was sung by John Hiatt and several others, and the type of music would be like Joe Cocker's type of song, pop mixed with soul. Or if you're not familiar with who Joe Cocker is, well, perhaps, the new American Idol, Taylor Hicks could carry this song pretty well too.

Sometimes amidst things that we're facing, we tend to depend on our strength and forgot that God can help. This song reminds me of the small faith that Jesus asked of us if we have faith as big as a mustard seed that we're able to move mountains.

Here's the lyrics to the song:

"Have A Little Faith in Me" by John Hiatt

when the road gets dark

and you can no longer see

let my love throw a spark

Have A Little Faith In Me

and when the tears you cry

are all you can believe

give these loving arms a try, baby

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

when your secret heart

cannot speak so easily

come here darlin'

from a whisper start

To Have A Little Faith In Me

and when your back's against the wall

just turn around and you will see

I will catch you, catch your fall

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

Have A Little Faith In Me

I've been loving you for such a long time

Expecting nothing in return

Just for you to have a little faith in Me

You see time, time is our friend

Cause for us there is no end

And all you got to do is have a little faith in Me

I said uh

I will hold you up, I will hold you up

Your love gives me strength enough

Have A Little Faith In Me

Some songs can really bring tears to my eyes... But yeah, in everything, at least have a little faith in Him who love us.
