Everyday

Here in the office, (for some goofy patriotic reasons) we used to end the work day by someone playing out loud on his PC the Philippine National Anthem at exactly 5:00AM (or 6:00AM if on Daylight Saving Time). Trip trip lang. Then, as always should be when playing that song, we are compelled to stand up everytime regardless of what we are doing... yes, sleepy or not. Pati night shift na Manong Guard can't help smiling when we were doing that. Ganyan trippings dito sa "vampire" shift.

Usually, anyone could play "Lupang Hinirang" since we all have a copy of the mp3. Basta kung sino unang makapansin na uwian time na should play the song. However, a Christian colleague had lately always been the one who plays the National Anthem and his playlist includes this Christian song playing right after it. In short, this Christian song had also been a part of our so-called everyday ritual that now that I became in-charge of playing the National Anthem (because the loudest PC speakers was connected to my PC), I still should also play that Christian song. I even created a playlist in my Media Player entitled "Everyday" for those songs aside from "Lupang Hinirang" that should customarily be played too every weekdays. Well here's the list of songs:

"Oh Babe" by Jeremiah (yep, i know. how this song precedes the Anthem? we're using this song to tease an officemate. not really an everyday ritual song... but almost.)

"Lupang Hinirang" by Julian Felipe (we stand up, whether we like it or not.)

"Everyday" by Hillsong United (ironically, yes, this Christian song is titled similar to when it should be played - Everyday!)

"Daliri" by Kjwan (pang-gising song! besides, its basslines sound good in the PC speakers. bumabayo. hehe.)

"Indian Breaks (Remix)" by Punjabi MC (bilog ang mundo! dance hits to end the day as one by one, my colleagues were hitting it off to home. mood setter.)

Anyway, I just want to post the lyrics to the Christian song. The tune's really catchy that's why it didn't had a hard-time tickling our ears. Gimme yer email if ya want a copy of the mp3.

"Everyday" by Hillsong United

What to say, Lord? It's
You who gave me life and I
Can't explain just how
Much You mean to me now
That You have saved me, Lord
I give all that I am to You
That everyday I can
Be a light that shines Your name

Everyday, Lord, I'll
Learn to stand upon Your word
And I pray that I
That I might come to know You more
That You would guide me with every single step I take, that
Everyday I can
Be Your light unto the world

Everyday, it's You I live for
Everyday, I'll follow after You
Everyday, I'll walk with You, my Lord

Everyday, Lord, I'll
Learn to stand upon Your word
And I pray that I
That I might come to know You more
That You would guide me with every single step I take, that
Everyday I can
Be Your light unto the world

Everyday, it's You I live for
Everyday, I'll follow after You
Everyday, I'll walk with You, my Lord

It's You I live for, everyday
It's You I live for, everyday
It's You I live for, everyday
It's You I live for, everyday

Everyday, it's You I live for
Everyday, I'll follow after You
Everyday, I'll walk with You, my Lord

Everyday, it's You I live for
Everyday, I'll follow after You
Everyday, I'll walk with You, my Lord
