Be Thou Near To Me

I love this song from Jim Brickman's Grace album


Be Thou Near To Me
Artist: Jim Brickman, featuring Selah

Oh, Lord I come with heart, here open
For in my hour of darkness I may be
Seeking the joy of love unspoken
Oh, Lord be Thou near to me

And the holy voices sing Hallelu
Ever will Thy reign be
As I wander through this life
Oh, Lord be Thou near to me

Though in this burden of my making
Yet in the shadows, still a light I see
Maker whose love is not forsaken
Oh, Lord be Thou near to me

And the holy voices sing Hallelu
Ever will Thy reign be
As I wander through this life
Oh, Lord be Thou near to me

And the holy voices sing Hallelu
Ever will Thy reign be
As I wander through this life
Oh, Lord be Thou near to me
Oh, Lord be Thou near to me

Happy Mother's Day!

I'm the person who can accept almost all types music genre.. except, of course, heavy metal. But if I am to pick a music to bring with me when I travel, or do some serious stuff, hehe, I'd be playing those that fall under the "easy listening" category, like Jim Brickman albums. Music accompanied by piano or just simply intrumental piano is soothing.

Anyway, I just wanna share this song from Jim Brickman to express my sincerest gratitude towards my mom. For all the hardwork and sacrifices she offered, for teaching us to be respectful and God-fearing, for treating all of us fairly -- walang paborito but lahat mahal, for her gentleness, for her patience, for.. well I can go on and on describing her.. she carried out perfectly her commitment as a mother that she deserves to get an A+ and a group hug from us all. All I can say is... "I Love You Mama!" and Happy Mother's day!

Happy Mom's day also to all the moms out there! =)

A Mother's Day
Artist - Jim Brickman
Album - Simple Things

...
Have I ever thanked you for everything you've done?
Now all that I can say is, 'I love you Mom.'

Thank you for nursing me through all those colds and fevers;
Thank you for believin' in me when they were no other believers.

And it's never too late to say, 'I love you Mom.'
