I love this song!!! Anybody knows how to put it into my blog???
Joyful, Joyful - Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit
- performed by The St. Francis Choir featuring Lauryn Hill, Ryan Toby, Devin Kamin and Ron Johnson
- produced and arranged by Mervyn Warren
- based on Ode to Joy from Beethoven's 9th Symphony
[Lauryn Hill]
Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee
God of glory
Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us with the light
Fill us with the light
Oh, fill us with the light of day......
[Choir]
Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee
God of glory
Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin, sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Drive it away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us
Fill us with the light of day
Light of day!
[Rap]
(Check the rhyme)
Joyful, Joyful
Lord we adore Thee
An' in my life
I put none before Thee
Cuz since I was a youngster
I came to know
That you was the only way to go
[switch rapper]
So I had to grow an' come to an understandin'
That I'm down with the King so now I'm demandin'
That you tell me who you down with, see
Cuz all I know is that I'm down with G-O-D
You down with G-O-D?
(Yeah, you know me)
You down with G-O-D?
(Yeah, you know me)
You down with G-O-D?
(Yeah, you know me)
Who's down with G-O-D?
(Everybody)
[4 girls]
Come and join the chorus
The mighty, mighty chorus
Which the morning stars begun
The Father of love is reigning over us
[Lauryn Hill] By the way
[Choir]
What have you done for Him lately?
Ooh, ooh, ooh yeah
What have you done for Him lately?
He watches over everything
So we sing
Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee
God of glory
Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin, sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Drive it away
Giver of immortal gladness ([Lauryn Hill] won't you)
Fill us ([Ryan Toby] Fill us with the light of day, Lord, fill us)
Fill us ([Ryan Toby] oh we need You, yes we do, fill us)
Fill us ([Ryan Toby] yeah..., oh, oh yeah)
Fill us ([3 guys] with the light of day, Lord)
....

I'm here to say fill us, fill us, fill us, fill us...)
Fill us with the light of day ([Lauryn Hill] oh, yeah)
Light of day!

I just realised.... There're A LOT of other people out there who haven't managed to find a uni. Uni-less like me!!! "You'll never walk alone....Liverpool....Liverpool"
But then I dont wanna end up like Liverpool leh: 1) Not in the top 2. 2) Only competetent player in there is Stevie.G. 3) Nothing much to show for in terms of silverware other than that Champions League anomaly.
So WHEN i get my uni,I'm gonna plan smart and execute it. Not like old Rafael. B. I mean Bellamy and Pennant? Good yet inconsistent and nowhere near stellar. Where's the plan smart in that? A single Eto' or Torres will have served Pool better.Whahhahaaaa.... Go Man Utd Go!!
Ok back to the planning smart.... No more slacking off classes,tutorials,research. Its times like this when people start to appreciate what hitting the book means. No worries of being school-less, route marches and IPPTs. Its cool to look on the bright side when things are not going right. But its even cooler to walk on the bright side.
Hmmmm...maybe its time I start thinking about getting that SAT and BTT. Why waste 2 years not using my brain eh?

I'm starting to worry about my health. Not long after the diaharrea thing,comes the fever and it still hasn't gone away.. Not that Im worried about the severity of it,its just that how am I supposed to complete the 24klick and IPPT with POP by 13th in mind,with all the Status that's gonna come about?
Ah well.. I really shouldnt worry too much. Afterall,it wasn't that long ago that I heard the message about God fulfilling his purpose for me. In fact,it was only yesterday.
Went for cell group yesterday. Oh by the way,it was a first for many things yesterday. First time in cell group in 7 weeks, first time in esplanade in more than 7 weeks, first time walking down citylink in more than 7 weeks, first time having subway for dinner, first time bowling in half a year. To say that I enjoyed yesterday's an understatement! Pretty cool to be hanging out with my cell group again....
Jasper shared the word yesterday. It was about a promise made to all men that they had a destiny to fulfill. A destiny already chosen by a higher being, and since its a destiny and a promise at the same time, it WILL be fulfilled. So that implies whatever hicups along the way, things' gonna be fine at the end. Well... I wouldnt have been so convicted in what was shared if I haven't been going on life in the past few days with the 'Always look on the bright side of life' mindset. Cos if things are gonna be fine at the end, all the more reason there shouldn't be any reason to worry and more reason to stay bright eh?
Back to more light-hearted stuff. 'Marco' is really good at bowling!! For a boy his age to be trumping most of the cell with his score and style...thats gotta count for something eh. JC wasn't too bad too. Just needed a game's worth of warm up. My own game was pretty rusty. Been a long time... Still,it was fun! Too bad I dont have any pictures to put up... Watching Lion order his subway was an eye-opener too. I can only put it down to lack of experience from eating at subway. He managed to choose his sub,type of bread,stuffings and sauce after an unusually long time and generous prompting and recommendations by the friendly staff of Subway. It was HILARIOUS!!
All in all...Its the first time in a long time since I enjoyed myself with the cell. Hard to imagine I was actually struggling to go cell group cos I wanted to stay at home and recover.....

1) Loooong holiday away from P.Tekong and whats the first thing i do? Fall ill with fever =X So much for going out to enjoy.
The bright side? At least i didnt have fever when i was still in camp. Imagine the sucky feeling of feeling feverish in a not so comfortable environment.
2) Missed the opportunity to play soccer with my friends. Been a long time since i last touch a soccer ball and hang out with them.
The bright side? Unlike them,i wont have body aches and feel sleepy from playing soccer at 7 plus in the morning at Bishan. Not to mention the amount of time i get to spend at home.
3) My mum doesnt stay with my family anymore.
The bright side? I treasure the times she visits us a lot more now. More than words can describe......
4) Spiritual father out of town when im in town.
The bright side? Opportune time to meet up with spiritual brothers instead.
5) Having to retake IPPT and 16km route march cos of Status.
The bright side? More experienced in what a 16km march feels like,having close buddies to retake them with me. And leaving me less tired on Monday when i do not have to take the Monday IPPT and instead,have more energy for the drill competition qualifiers!
6) Rejection letter from NUS (Only applied for NUS this year =S)
The bright side? Learning to take academic issues more seriously. Not gonna take it for granted now.
7) Being in the platoon that undergoes the tougher training in the company. The high number of sick people speaks a lot about the training.
The bright side? We're definitely more prepared for post BMT life than the other platoons.
8) Extremely limited spaces of command school and hence low chance of getting into OCS.
The bright side? Perhaps God has another plan for me. OCS afterall, was always a dream for my ownself from the start.
For all the bad things that happens, there're a lot more silver linings that I miss out. Hopefully my eyes will be opened to more of those silver linings.
My GOLDEN lining.....take away the 'L','E' and 'N'.
