Eliza Aquino - If I Was Blind

If I Was Blind

by Eliza Aquino

If I was blind,

Though I am not

It sure would be a misery

Yes, If I am blind

I would’ve thought

Of dying by the depths of agony.

Yet some are blind

For wealth is where

Their heart ought to be

And so we are not blind

Not to care

What is there for us to see

Reach as high

As you can climb

You are given the ability to do so

Now open your eyes

Thank God and smile

And never judge like you know.

 #We must be thankful for what we have and who we are today. Sometimes, we never get contented because we only see the inconsistencies in life. But if we get to see the brighter picture of having a God who was here, is here, and will always be here with us through every situation in life, we’ll certainly find the fountain of living water. 

#He is with us now & forever

Eliza Aquino - God's Embrace (Poem)

 God's Embrace

by Eliza Aquino

 I woke up at the warmth of the sun

But my day started with a storm

 I was just another loner for some

With a past that takes no form.

 My tears dried up in no time

Yes, but my heart has turned to stone

 My words ran out of rhyme

And I was all alone.

 Far and wide, I wandered

Filled with so much questions

 A lot of times, I faltered

Confused at all directions.

 I fell on my knees and cried,

“How could I even survive?”

 Then He gave me answers in many ways

And the best of all was His embrace.

Eliza Aquino - In Your Presence

 In Your Presence

by Eliza Aquino

I-Verse:  I am who I am
And I am who He made me to be
 It is His will, He is the lamb
Who was sent here so we could be free

Refrain:
 From all our sins,
From all the suffering,
 From all the burdens
That He carried for us..

CHORUS:
 Father, I surrender my life to you
I know You have your reasons
 For all I’m going through
Father, you died for my sins
 Carried my burden
And my suffering
In Your presence, I’m alive and strong
 In Your presence, You have calmed the storm
In my life, You will always be here
 In my heart, it is You I fear
(more than anything)

II-Verse:
 I am who I am
And He made me this way
 I am not ashamed for He is the lamb
Who took the sins of the world away..

Refrain:
 From all our sins,
From all the suffering,
 From all the burdens
That He carried for us..
(Repeat CHORUS)

Bridge:
 You are so compassionate
You are so forgiving
 You are my everything
In your presence, I’ll always cling..
