To be like YOU

Tuhan jiwaku

Beriku ketetaptaatan hati

untuk bersabar dengan tegar
untuk setia saat tampak sia-sia
untuk percaya saat tiada cahaya

untuk mengasihi saat terluka hati
untuk beriman walau tanpa teman

untuk berharap walau nyaris tiarap

biarlah jiwaku jiwa-Mu bersatu

Tuhan jiwaku
‘ku milikMu

On Getsemane

“Are you asleep?”
“Could you not keep watch for one hour?”

“Are you still sleeping and resting?”
“Enough!”
“The hour has come.”
“Look, the Son of Man is delivered into hands of sinners.”
“Rise! Let’s go!”
“Here comes my betrayer!”

What’s up God?
You break my daydreaming!
but, O’o!
This is my Getsemane
I am not better than Peter, James, and John
Sorry, I am asleep
even though [...]

Ash Wednesday

I put my finger on ashcan
From ash to ash
I made cross-sign on my forehead
Here is the surrender soul
Count nothing till You save it
Lord of my soul
I am Yours
 
Bahasa Indonesia
Kucelupkan jariku dalam cawan abu
Dari debu menjadi debu
Kubuatkan tanda salib didahiku
Inilah jiwa yang berpasrah
Terhitung tiada hingga Kau selamatkan
Tuhan jiwaku
Aku milikmu
