All This Time

Saturday, October 24, 2009

Today I just went for Boarding Annual Dinner 2009--Celebration of Togetherness in Diversity. I was in the deco comm and feel a little bit sad that I won't be seeing them again, since a whole lota them are from other schools and I will be leaving Boarding when I become a year 6 next year. Will miss you guys!

More importantly, throughout the event, I kept reminding myself to not be too absorbed by self-indulgence, an important point which is aptly highlighted in this song by Delirious--All This Time. I won't embed it here but you can listen to it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXtAObsf2aw

All This Time--Delirious
I’m a father and a son;
I’ve been a lover with just one,
But this world can get me all undone,
And I’m frightened I’m the only one.

I wrestle with the thoughts I keep,
If I sow the seed of arrogance
Then it’s loneliness I’ll reap,
It’s loneliness I’ll reap.

Please don’t leave me stranded here,
With a head of lies and a heart of fear.
My life’s a show on Gods TV,
The world an audience, watching me.

So wake me, shake me, keep me sharp,
As I touch the power of Gods great harp.
And this world can fill your head with praise,
That steals me from eternal grace.

So how can I serve God and wealth?
I can captivate an army, but I can’t control myself.
I can’t control myself.
Ghostly figure out at sea,
I hear a voice that’s calling me,
To walk upon the waves of faith.
For in the arms of God, I am safe.

[The highest point of the song]
All this time, since the day that I was born,
I’ve never known a time like this,
I don’t wanna let you down.
I will sing, sing for your light has come.
