Always...

Today, i went to the Ascension of our Lord sunset mass at St. Peter and Paul. It's been a long time for me since my time seems getting tighter especially since a few months ago.

I realize that i also must keep to maintaining a lot of relation in my life. Because i realize, life is about to maintaining relations. Not only relation between you and your loved ones, but also our relation with God. Actually that the first thing that we must take care of, but like me...i know that so many times i ignore it about the time that i should take as a quality time between me and Him. I realized it when i went to the adoration room before mass began. Feels like i'm home again. My heart, my mind, feels like being rest in somewhere that far from this hectic life.

After i reached home, like usually, i just go online, open my laptop, and starts to play music in my iTunes. And suddenly i remember one song that i found this morning in Youtube. Song from one of my favorite Christian band, Building 429. I don't know why, but i think this is the second time that He touch me again with their song. The title of the song is the same like this blog title, "Always"

The lyrics is reminding me again about His promise, about His presence in my life. Which is, as similar like Jesus said before His ascension day that He won't leave us alone, even He came back to His father, He won't leave us alone, because He is Emmanuel...

Thank you, Lord for keeping me always in Your hands...

Here's the lyrics...

Always ~ Building 429

I was standing in the pouring rain one dark, November night;
fighting off the bitter cold when she caught my eye.
Her face was taught and her eyes were filled and to my surprise
she pulled out a photograph and my heart just stopped inside
she said, "He would of been three today. I miss his smile. I miss his face."
What was I supposed to say?

But I believe always, always our savior never fails.
Even when all hope is gone,
God knows our pain
and his promise remains. He will be with you always.

he was living in a broken world dreaming of a home
his heart was barely keeping pace when I found him all alone
remembering the way he felt when his daddy said goodbye
fighting just to keep the tears and the anger locked inside

he's barely holding on to faith
but deliverance is on its way

because I believe always, always
our savior never fails.
Even when all hope is gone,
God knows our pain
and his promise remains. He will be with you always.

Friend I don't know where you are
and I don't know where you've been.
Maybe you're fighting for your life
just about to throw the towel in,
but if you 're crying out for mercy
if there's no hope left at all
if you've given everything you've got and you're still about to fall
well hold on,
hold on ,
hold on

Because I believe always, always
our savior never fails.
Even when all faith is gone,
God knows our pain
and his promise remains always. always.
He will be with you always.
He will be with you always.
He will be with you.
