To thank you, Jehovah, for the life that I live?

I look in my heart with your Word as my mirror;

         G –            D –                     Em –           A7 - D

The person I see, may you help me see clearer.

My life I have promised in service to you,

        G –                          GM7 –     Bm (C#7) F#m

But not from mere duty will I do what I do.

Whole-souled and wholehearted I serve you by choice;

       Bm -                                                               G F#m-Em7-A7

May I be one more who makes you rejoice.

Help me to examine, and help me to see

Just what sort of person you desire me to be.

Those loyal to you, you will loyally treasure;

May I be among those who bring your heart pleasure.

AWIT 127 - Ang Uri ng Pagkatao na Dapat Kong Taglayin

(2 Pedro 3:11)

Ano’ng kapalit na maibibigay?

Salamat, Jehova, sa taglay kong buhay.

Puso’y sinuri; salamin ko ang Bibliya,

Nang sarili kong pagkatao’y makita.

(BRIDGE)

Buhay ’pinangako para sa iyo.

’Di napipilitan; ito’y buong puso.

Pinipili ko na paglingkuran ka.

Ang nais ko ay mapasaya ka.

Sana’y ’yong tulungang aking suriin,

Pagkataong dapat na aking taglayin.

Ang mga tapat, tunay nga na mahal mo.

Sana ay mapalugdan ko ang ’yong puso.
