what lies behind the mask, no one knows

Before the throne of God above,
I have a strong, a perfect plea.
A great high Priest whose Name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on His hands,
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in heaven He stands,
No tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin.
Because the sinless Savious died
My sinful soul is counted free.
For God, the Just, is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me.

Behold Him there! the risen Lamb,
My perfect spotless, righteousness,
The great unchangable I AM,
The King of glory and of grace,
One with Himself I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood,
My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ my Saviour and my God!

this song has been ringing in my head for a long time now. maybe because we're singing it so very often during singspiration, but more so cos the words are speaking to me. somehow, i shall not elaborate. read the lyrics, what does it say to you? hope it touches your heart as it did to mine =)
whoa its been a long time since i've blogged. too busy to come online. study study study + play play play + think ponder reflect, very much summarises what i've been doing. haha.
im realli tired of studying, so now im taking it kinda slow and steady, working towards the A's. my prelims may just screw up, but im not disheartened. somehow i know that if i continue to work hard i can reach the finishing line, by the grace of God.
every week my energy is slowly dissipitating out of me, and every weekend i get revitalised again. its kinda like a cycle. studies drains me, and i look forward to the weekends, where i can have fellowship with all my church buds (baba, toke, wy, merv, sean etc), where i can have BS, where i can play captain's ball, and eat hokkien mee. my greatest wish is to have this kinda life everyday, though its not quite possible, unless the Lord comes and take us all up to heaven. then we'll be singing and laughing all the time. oh how much i look forward to that day!
the toughest thing in this world is making choices. choices determine your future, your happiness. some wrong choices dun lead to dire consequences, you can learn form them. but there are some wrong choices that can result in you regretting for the rest of ur life. so choose wisely. choose with wisdom.
guess all the studying led me to think about alot of stuff. erm, sounds weird, but ya, it did. im just sharing it so you guys can have smthg to think abt too. haha.
17 November is coming. and it spells FREEDOM for me! ooohh...i can't wait! =D
