His eye is on the sparrow

feel hopeless an desperate? dont worry about tomorrow because He's the One who will take care of you. His eye is on the sparrow, and i know He watches me ..

Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heav’n and home,
When Jesus is my portion? My constant Friend is He:
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

Refrain:
I sing because I’m happy, I sing because I’m free,
For His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

“Let not your heart be troubled,” His tender word I hear,
And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubts and fears;
Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise,
When songs give place to sighing, when hope within me dies,
I draw the closer to Him, from care He sets me free;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

bila ku melihat

if i look back to what He did to me, i just cannot believe that its happened to me. God has his wonderful ways of doing things. it is like a jig saw puzzle. you will not know what God has in store for you. until the last piece of jig saw puzzle is put in place. then you see the full picture of his promises. and that he has kept his promises.
He's so good. full of surprises and laugh. it was not my power or strength.
it was not because of my kindness or because i worth of it. it was Him all alone.

psalms 56:8 says :
record my lament; list my tears on your scroll, are they not in your record?

bila ku melihat apa yang Kau buat
di dalam hidupku ini
hanya air mata, tanda sukacita
mengalir di hidupku

ku bersyukur, ku bersyukur
atas kebaikanMu Yesus
ku bersyukur, ku bersyukur
atas kasih setiaMu

i'd like to visit the jungle to hear the lion's roar

i heard this song repeated by ernie in about 1990, sesame street - the kids program on tv. ernie and i, we have same dreams .. visiting new places, strange places. try and explore new things in new ways. i always want new things in my life.

and today, feb 5 2008, i'd like to visit the jungle to hear the lion's roar :)

i don't want to live on the moon

sung by ernie (jim henson), the sesame street

well, i'd like to visit the moon
on a rocket ship high in the air
yes, i'd like to visit the moon
but i don't think i'd like to live there
though i'd like to look down at the earth from above
i would miss all the places and people i love
so although i might like it for one afternoon
i don't want to live on the moon

i'd like to travel under the sea
i could meet all the fish everywhere
yes, i'd travel under the sea
but i don't think i'd like to live there
i might stay for a day there if i had my wish
but there's not much to do when your friends are all fish
and an oyster and clam aren't real family
so i don't want to live in the sea

i'd like to visit the jungle, hear the lions roar
go back in time and meet a dinosaur
there's so many strange places i'd like to be
but none of them permanently

so if i should visit the moon
well, i'll dance on a moonbeam and then
i will make a wish on a star
and i'll wish i was home once again
though i'd like to look down at the earth from above
i would miss all the places and people i love
so although i may go i'll be coming home soon
'cause i don't want to live on the moon
no, i don't want to live on the moon
