To Keep My Faith in You


When trouble comes
And my heart becomes too busy
I try to keep my faith in You

When i feel lonely
And no one can even understand
I try to close my eyes
And keeping my faith in You

Even I can’t see You by my side
Or feel Your presence beside me
In my darkest time
I try to keep my faith in You

When problem taking control of my head
And also my heart
When it seems like no one could help me
I try to keep my faith in You

Because I know
I always know
That you are always watching over me
And never leave me alone

The hardest part is not praying nor believing
But to have faith and prove it

And I do really understand
That if I have faith
But I do otherwise
My faith is useless

I do really understand
If I have faith
but I immerse in deep sorrow
My faith is useless

I do really understand
If i have faith
but always say that I am alone
my faith is useless

I do really understand
If i have faith
And say that You are never there and care for me
My faith is useless

I do really understand
If I loose control of myself
And not giving the wheel to You
My faith is useless

Then, Lord
When it seems that the world against me
Or I walk in a dark valley
Teach me to understand
Teach me to keep my faith in You

Teach me to understand
That You always there even I can’t see You
That You always care even I can’t feel You
That sometimes in life
You are just very quiet
To let me try…
To keep my faith in You

Sebenarnya “pencitraan” merupakan bentuk halus dari sebuah kata makian yang kita kenal sejak lama, yaitu “cari muka”, bedanya pencitraan dilakukan pada saat-saat di mana penilaian akan dilakukan.

Jika Anda seorang guru atau guru sekolah minggu, Anda akan tahu trik ini: “siapa yang duduk palin rapi akan mendapat hadiah…”, kemudian terjadilah di depan hidung saudara, anak-anak itu melakukan pencitraan… Continue reading
