daily MorningWorship at LT2.
with just a guitar, and lyrics,
we'd worship and pray for
things of concern.
awesome way to start the day.
and it's cool that some people
at NYPCCC have initiated MW too.
it's weekly (fridays) at 8am
and we meet at BlkE.
although it's just an hour
of worship and short sharing,
it's a good time of refreshing.
we've had about 4-5 MWs so far?
and today was
in light of the 2008 BeiJing Olympics,
we had worship in mandarin!
here's a song i learnt
that i was really encouraged by.
point to note:
it must really have touched me,
considering my chinese is like, bleah.
and um, i'll try to translate it
(not word-for-word, though)
to the bestest i can..

祷告(Pray)
Verse
祷告因为我渺小
祷告因为我知道我需要
明瞭你心意对我重要
祷告已假装不了
祷告因为你的爱我需要
你关怀 我走过的你都明白
Chorus
有些事我只想要对你说
因你比任何人都爱我
痛苦从眼中流下
我知道你为我檫
在早晨我也要来对你说
主耶稣今天我为你活
所需要的力量你天天赐给我
你恩典够我用
the song is entitled: Pray
the verse speaks of recognising
the need for prayer.
because I'm not self-sufficient,
because I know I need to,
understanding that the plans
God has for me are important.
it then goes on to say that
prayer is something that cannot be feigned,
pray recognises the need for God's love.
because He cares for me
and knows what I go through.
the chorus captures bits of
what the author feels.
he mentions that there are some things
he would like to tell God,
because God knows him
better than anyone else.
God wipes away
all sorrow expressed in tears.
the first thing in the morning,
he also wants to acknowledge
that he lives for God.
because the strength required
is daily provided by Him.
and it concludes with this:
"Your grace is sufficient for me."

is really beautiful.
unfortunately i am unable
to fully capture its meaning
after attempted translation.

the QuietTime girls?
