You're My God by Jaci Velasquez
A new day was beginning
And all the birds were singing
The sun was shining up in the sky
Sometimes the world around me
Is so awesome it astounds me
It leaves me feeling mystified
Oh I just can't believe
All the beauty I see
It takes my breath away
Sometimes I've gotta say
CHORUS
You're my God
What You've created
So many miracles in every day
You're my God
It's so amazing
It's so incredible I've gotta say
You're my God
I can't even imagine
How He made it happen
To see the silver moon from afar
It's almost unbelievable
It's truly inconceivable
To think of all the billions of stars
When I'm watching a rose
How it naturally grows
Just takes my breath away
There's just one thing to say
CHORUS
Oh all the gifts You've given me
Oh what You do's a mystery, just to be,
You got me falling to my knees
Oh I just can't believe
CHORUS

Security by Stacie Orrico
Another day all alone again
Someone please love me
Another game; another broken heart
Why do I do this to myself
I could look can try to find someone
Who won't leave me lonely
But then I found I didn't need to search
Cause You were the one and You carried me
You fought for my heart and You have won it
You're taking me over and I like that
I tried other love but couldn't feel it
I'm so glad You found me because
I need You so close to me
(Cause You're the)
Only one that makes my life complete
(And Lord I)
Know it took so long to see that
You're my security
You won't go away from me
(And now I)
Know that I don't ever have to worry
Cause my heart feels so very free
You're my security
You are my security (There's no denying)
You are my security
Another day; here I go again
Drive myself insane
Stop to think; how could I forget
You're with me every single day
(Now I look)
And I see the One
The only one for me
Cause I don't need to search for
A way to try to be more
I have found a love that's so secure
You found for my heart and You have won it
You're taking me over and I like that
I tried other love but couldn't feel it
I'm so glad You found me because
Other relationships confuse me
The thought of Your simple love is crazy
You make me feel like no one has before
I need You so close to me
(Cause You're the)
Only one that makes my life complete
(And Lord I)
Know it took so long to see that
You're my security
You won't go away from me
(And now I)
Know that I don't ever have to worry
Cause my heart feels so very free
You're my security
(repeat)
I need You so close to me
(Cause You're the)
Only one that makes my life complete
(And Lord I)
Know it took so long to see that
You're my security
You won't go away from me
(And now I)
Know that I don't ever have to worry
Cause my heart feels so very free
You're my security
(repeat)

There's Gotta Be More To Life by Stacey Orrico
Yea, yea
Oh ohh
I've got it all, but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing
And why can't I let go
There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
Than wanting more
I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I'm half way out the door
Onto the next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing
There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
Than wanting more
Than waiting on something other than this
Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed.....
There's gotta be more to life...
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more
To life..
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm...
Tripping out thinking there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure... there's gotta be more to life....life..
ohh...more to life....theres gotta be more to life...
ohh...more to life....theres gotta be more to life...ohhh

He Reigns by Newsboys
It's the song of the redeemed
Rising from the African plain
It's the song of the forgiven
Drowning out the Amazon rain
The song of Asian believers
Filled with God's holy fire
It's every tribe, every tounge, every nation
A love song born of a grateful choir
(chorus) (x2)
It's all God's children singin'
Glory, glory, hallelujah
He reigns,(pause) He reigns
Let it rise above the fore-winds
Caught up in the heavenly sound
Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals
To the faithful gathered underground
Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation
Some were meant to persist
Of all the bells rung from a thousand steaples
None rings truer than this
(chorus)(x4)
And all the powers of darkness
Tremble at what they've just heard
Cause all the powers of darkness
Can't drown out a single word
(chorus)(till end)
When all God's children sing out
Glory Glory Hallelujah
He reigns,(pause) He reigns
All God's children sing out
Glory Glory Hallelujah
He reigns, (pause) He reigns
All God's people sing out
Glory Glory Hallelujah
He Reigns, (pause) He reigns
(back to orig. chorus)

The Change Inside Of Me by Mercy Me
Pardon me
If I've been acting strange
I haven't been myself lately
What you see
Is a person rearranged
Someone affected me greatly
And I've got so much to say
Ever since Jesus looked my way
CHORUS
Gonna raise my voice like thunder
And leave the world in wonder of the change
The change inside of me
And I will never stop believing
That you are the reason for this change
The change inside of me
Everyday
I'm taking in the view
Of His glory around me
I'm awake
And I have been made new
By the One who has found me
Words just can't say enough
When all I can feel is love
REPEAT CHORUS
Your life You gave for mine to save
Its nothing less than a miracle
Your name I praise, because the change
Inside of me is so beautiful
REPEAT CHORUS 2x

~*2003 family holiday trip*~
Finally, my family and I have bought four tickets for a free & easy tour to Hanoi, Vietnam. Before this, knowing that pricingfor to and fro tickets can mount up to RM 10,400 ( RM 2,600x4 ), we almost thought it was impossible for an overseas holiday. Thans be to our Lord Jesus Christ for through His Grace, there was an existing MATTA fair in PWTC, K.L. during mid October. " Great idea for a much cheaper fair and great discounts!" exclaimed my mum.
On the very day, ( second day of the exhibition ), tens of thousands of people ( not only Malaysians ) flooded the exhibition floors. As we stepped in, people walked in and out. However, ticketing to enter place was Rm 3 per person. Wow! Anyway, it was cheap. After that, we found ourselves squeezing through a multitude of people in the hall. It was all pushing and shoulder-clashing while walking slowly. Careful also we were to watch our feet as we kept our eyes focused on the signboard of each booths. I remembered the last MATTA fair, this guy bumped into me and I was wearing a pair of heels. My toes were exposed and his toes hit mine. Ouch! My toe nail broke and yes there was blood. He didn't realize the accident anyway and no sorry was uttered. We rushed to this nearby Ken Air Travel booth. Thank God the lady had plasters with her.
Anyway, back to my story. We passed many booths. Actually, my mum wasn't sure of either Hanoi. Perth, Adelaide, some places in China or Korea. The main reason for traveling this time was to shop. Looking all over the place, we found many famous and not so famous travel agencies. Of course, most of those expensive ones were famous and vice versa. After checking out Reliance, May flowers and a few more, mum was still undecided. So we went home with many flyers that day but with no booking of tickets at all. Upon arriving home, mum narrowed down her choice to just China or Vietnam. She was convinced that Australia and Korea was out of her and dad's budget. Without much hesitation, she served the Internet on China and Vietnam. Her search included the fascinating places, shopping centres and the weather forecast.
There after,I recalled her saying that China might still be endangered of SARS. So the thought on that was obviously canceled. The last resort and also the one she loved and mentioned most was Hanoi. Her looking forward to that was mostly the cloth material sold there - e.g. Vietnamese Silk, Thai Silk, Organza, Satin and etc. Most of all it is cheap. Finally, we settled down for Hanoi in the end. Besides, thank God for His Kindness that only the next day was the last day of the exhibition. Phew!
The next day, we hurried down to K.L. to get the tickets booked. The cheapest among the most famous for reliability and service? It was obviously Reliance Travel and Shipping Agency. NO.1 in Malaysia. Anyway, the pricing for was RM 1,075 ( much cheaper, right? ) per person. Included in was the hotel accommodation payment, airport transfer, breakfast for all the days and of course it was a to and fro flight with Malaysia Airlines. That is my favourite Airlines! And by the way, the free and easy tour was for 4 days and 3 nights. Wow! I thought it was worth it. From the 13/11( Thurs ) to 16/11( Sun ) 2003 were the days.
On the day of booking, we were promised a call from Reliance in two weeks time. Eventually, no one called. On the other hand, mum was worried that Holiday Hotel was just an inn or a resthouse. She had give them a call to change the option to Galaxy Hotel which was listed in the Internet. Taking the opportunity, in this phone call, she questioned them about the call delay. It seems that Krista, the lady in charged for our holiday went for a tour herself. Okay. That was fine. However, Monday the 10th of November, they still haven't called us to collect the tickets. Mum called them and they said it was ready and we could collect already. Then, she scolded them for not informing us on it. Since my college was next to Sungei Wang Plaza ( the shopping complex where Reliance is situated in ), she sent me to collect them. At last,I got the tickets the next day and we were so glad that the hassle was over.

Cry Holy by Sonicflood
every sun and moon and star
all declaring who you are
we fall silent in amazement
every word who and deep of man
every sea and grain of sand
all creation speaks
and now we sing to proclaim your majesty
let the earth rejoice
singing with one voice
let the people cry
holy holy lord
every creature sing
praises to the King
all creation cry
holy is the Lord
every song sung on the earth
will never capture all your worth
we fail silent in amazement
let every humble heart now see
the beauty of your majesty
all creation speaks
and now we sing to the
king above all kings....

I will follow, wherever You lead me,
wherever you are underneath this star is where I want to be
And I will lay down, this old life of mine,
I'll leave behind all the things of this world just to follow you
And I'll be strong, and courageous,live my life for you my only king,
'cause you're my God, through all the ages,
here am I, I am Yours, send me...
When I fall down, and I'm broken
When I stumble on the rocks and lose my way
I will cling to You reach down oh Lord
when I'm weak, You come to me,
You give me strength
And I'll be strong, and courageous,live my life for you my only king,
'cause you're my God, through all the ages,

More Than Fine by Switchfoot
When I wake in the morning,
I want to blow into pieces
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
When I’m up with the sunrise
I want more than just the blue skies.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
I’m not givin' up, givin' up, not givin' up now.
I’m not givin' up, givin' up, not backing down.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
When I’m there with the sunshine.
I want more than just a good time.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.ok
I’m not givin' up, givin' up, not givin' up now.
I’m not givin' up, givin' up, i'm not selling out.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok. ok
More than oceans away from the dawn.
More than oceans away from the dawn.
More than oceans away from who we are
