O Diyos, Ikaw ang laging hanap
Loob ko’y Ikaw ang tanging hangad
Nauuhaw akong parang tigang na lupa
Sa tubig ng ‘Yong pag-aaruga
Ika’y pagmamasdan sa dakong banal
Nang makita ko ang ‘Yong pagkarangal
Dadalangin akong nakataas aking kamay
Magagalak na aawit ng papuring iaalay
KORO:
Gunita ko’y Ikaw habang nahihimlay
Pagkat ang tulong Mo sa tuwina’y taglay
Sa lilim ng Iyong mga pakpak
Umaawit akong buong galak
Aking kaluluwa’y kumakapit sa ‘Yo
Kaligtasa’y tiyak kung hawak Mo ako
Magdiriwang ang hari, ang Diyos, S’yang dahilan
Ang sa Iyo ay nangako, galak yaong makamtan (KORO)
CODA:
Umaawit, umaawit
Umaawit akong buong galak
My Thoughts: My sister put this song in my playlist one time, after the break-up. Then, one evening, I just heard myself singing this song on my way home. I hear the lines
Aking kaluluwa’y kumakapit sa ‘Yo
Kaligtasa’y tiyak kung hawak Mo ako
Magdiriwang ang hari, ang Diyos, S’yang dahilan
Ang sa Iyo ay nangako, galak yaong makamtan
kept repeating itself in my mind. When I got home, I immediately turned my pc on and searched for this song in youtube. As the song plays, I cried. I cried not because I am hurt. I cried because I realized how God loves me. He lifted my spirit through this song. He made me realize that inspite the uncertainties, there is one thing that is certain - His love for me never ceases. He promised us joy and we will surely achieve it. God did not want us to be miserable. Misery is only one of his ways to reach out to us, to wake us up, to call on us. It is just His way of telling us “Child, I am here. Return to me, your Father. Come back Home.”
