Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

Lord, I'm afraid.
The world is facing recession right now,
and many people have been or are going to be affected by it.
It may be going to be the biggest recession in history,
and it is going to hit us all, negatively.
Maybe I should not worry too much,
because you told me that you'll provide my daily bread,
and will take care of me all my life.
I trust you on that.
But what I'm a tad worried about is my parents.
My family ain't well off, but I do not complain,
because thus far, you've provided me with more than what I could even imagine,
that I am enjoying life despite my worse financial circumstances compared to others.
I do feel guilty that maybe I spend more than what my parents can afford,
especially when they work so hard outside,
and sometimes, I don't reciprocate their struggles in work for me.
I pray really hard, that they will be able to survive past this recession period,
no matter how tough it may seem,
because considering society and their qualifications,
this could be the worst time for retrenchment.
I pray that you could bless them,
and carry them through this tough times.
In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
