Love...

Now Hollywood wants to make you think they know what love is.
But I'm a tell you what true love is.
Love is not what you see in the movies.
Its not the ecstasy, its not what you see in that scene
you know what I mean? I'm telling you right now, true love is sacrifice.
Love is thinking about others before you think about yourself
Love is selfless not selfish. Love is God and God is love.
Love is when you lay down your life for another
Whether for your brother, your mother, your father or your sister
Its even laying down your life for your enemies,
That's unthinkable, but think about that
Love is true
Think.


Chorus
I'll put you in front of me
So everybody can see
My love, this is my love
I know that I'll be alright
As long as you are my guide
My love, this is my love


Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast
It is not proud. Love is not rude, it is not self-seeking
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs
You see love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, it always perseveres
Love never fails. Love is everlasting
Its eternal, it goes on and on, it goes beyond time
Love is the only thing that will last when you die
But ask the question why? Do you have love?


Chorus
I'll put you in front of me
So everybody can see
My love, this is my love
I know that I'll be alright
As long as you are my guide
My love, this is my love


There is no greater love than this than he who lays down his life for his friends
Now are you willing to lay down your life for your friends?
You're probably willing to lay down your life for your mother
your father, or your best friends
But are you willing to lay down your life for even those that hate you?
God is true love, and if you don't know this love
Now is the time to know, perfect love


Chorus
I'll put you in front of me
So everybody can see
My love, this is my love
I know that I'll be alright
As long as you are my guide
My love, this is my love

Semakin Aku Berfikir, Ternyata Allah Semakin Ada

Ya Allah...Ya Rabbi...
Tanpaku sedari aku begitu jauh menganiayai diri,
Ketika aku asyik bergelumang dengan maksiat,
Ketika aku hanyut dalam kejahilan,
Kata-kata menghinamu sentiasa di hati ini,
Tanpa sedikit pun rasa bersalah,
Tidak terlintas di jiwa,
Semua ini hanya sementara,

Tuhanku...
Tanpa aku sedari kesesatan ini semakin menghitamkan jiwa ini,
Namun betapa hinanya diri ini,
Setiap detik berlalu dengan kasih sayang-Mu padaku,
Engkau sentiasa mengasihi dan menyayangiku
Apakah yang telah membutakan mata hatiku,
Tanpa aku sedari semua kenikmatan ini adalah dari-Mu,

Tuhanku...
Ku mendengar kisah kekasih-Mu,
Sepertiga malam berlinangan air mata,
Bertahlil, bertasbih, beristighfar...memohon keredhaan-Mu,
Sejujur hatiku masih tak mampu menjadi seperti mereka,
Sedangkan diriku adalah sebaliknya,
Tidak pernah tangan ini menadah kepada-Mu,
Saat aku sedar telah melupai-Mu,
Seketika aku menjadi malu kepada-Mu,
Jasadku menggigil kerana takut kepada-Mu,

Ya Allah...
Kekasih-Mu sahaja yang takut kepada-Mu,
Bagaimana denganku saat bergelumang dengan dosa?
Dimana kedudukanku di hadapan-Mu?
Adakah aku yang paling hina...Ya Allah???
