Amen,

Lord continue to bless our priests.
The soldiers of CHRIST.

Who win souls for the Lord.
For the SALVATION of mankind.

In this, unending battle against the demonic enemy, who continues to claim lives and souls in believing untruths and lies.

I have so much respect for young priests.
For them, to make that decision,

GOD BLESS THEM.

THE MARK OF PRIESTLY BLISS

Words by Rev. J. Roel Lungay

Music by Rev. Arnold Zamora

Arranged and performed by Romeo C. MascariÃ±as

1
A priest forever, a priest for life
Called to serve - to live and die.
Through many years and happy tears,
Gods joy abounds, His grace supplied.

2
A priest for always, a priest I am,
In poverty I am to be;
A good example for all to see -
Salt of the earth, light to be seen.

Chorus:
You called me to proclaim your goodness to the world;
Make peace with everyone, uniting all as one;
May all the sacraments, in your most holy name,
Lead us to holiness - the mark of priestly bliss.

3
A priest for Christ, a priest for love,
A priest for all, thats who I am;
One blessed vision in Christ our God
For all his chosen, anointed hands.

(Repeat Chorus 2x)

Coda:
May all the sacraments, in your most Holy Name,
Lead us to holiness - the mark of priestly bliss.

A priest of God, a priest I am!

Lorenzo · April 21, 2009, 04:23:34 AM

I love this song.

Lorenzo · April 21, 2009, 04:27:23 AM

My priest, Fr. Ranulfo Guido, who is from Cebu, was an economist before he was called. He is in his late 40s. And has been a priest for the past 8 years.

It is amazing, how one can be called at any age.

I am touched how he gave up, his profession, his life, to carry the Sheppard's staff.

GOD IS GREAT!

Dong, I pray for soon-to-be Father Cody. You know, when a friend of mine was ordained into priesthood, he has this to ask of me: Ate Ging, please always pray for me. I need all the prayer para malayo sa temptasyon ug aron malig-on samot sila sa ilang chosen vocation.

chicogon · April 25, 2009, 11:41:22 AM

Daan pako parion ni si Lorenzo kay maka Diyos kaayo iya perspective; it humbles me! But you will be a very good doctor pod if that's where God is calling you.

grazie7y · April 25, 2009, 11:42:56 AM

Daan pako parion ni si Lorenzo kay maka Diyos kaayo iya perspective; it humbles me!

One time, a new member asked me if Admin Lorenzo was a priest. Pirte nako katawa oi but I don't blame people who thinks he is a priest because he is so priestly. Di ba, Dong? hehehe

Lorenzo · April 25, 2009, 11:42:58 AM

In my 2nd year of college, i received the calling. The Lord provided me the means to visit and talk to other men my age considering it, and when I attended, surprised jud ko to see so many young men my age that were called.

I met Don, Bryan, and Cody there. We all bonded jud.

I will forward him this page, he will appreciate the prayers.

Buutan tawhana si Cody.

Lorenzo · April 25, 2009, 11:44:32 AM

Daan pako parion ni si Lorenzo kay maka Diyos kaayo iya perspective; it humbles me! But you will be a very good doctor pod if that's where God is calling you.

Fr, i will not lie to you.

To this day, I still have the calling.

I pray the Lord will be pleased if I approach deaconship someday.

To tell you the truth, Fr., hadlok ko mo answer. I am scared.

Dong, you can be both, right? I mean, you can be a the best doctor that you can be and also serve the Lord.

Lorenzo · April 25, 2009, 11:51:07 AM

Amen! Our priests are men like us, with faults, with temptations. They pray for us, bless us in the name of God The Father, The Son, The Holy Spirit. Console when we need consolment, forgive when we forgiving, and confirm when we need confirmation.

We sometimes forget that they, too, are human. Entrusted by God Himself, to preach and guide the faithful.

Amen to our priests! God Bless em!

Lorenzo · April 25, 2009, 11:53:48 AM

Dong, you can be both, right? I mean, you can be a the best doctor that you can be and also serve the Lord.

By God's Will, Ate. What will be will be, according to His Will.

Dong Enz, as the Bible says "Nothing is impossible with God." Who knows? Just stay open. Or as what many spiritual writers say, quoting the Lord: "Go into your room (heart), close the door (be there alone with Him, leave all worldly cares outside) and pray before God (just be there and be absorbed with His presence, but more importantly 'listen' in the quiet of your heart).

Lorenzo · April 25, 2009, 12:17:09 PM

Let me sit at thy feet and listen~
When problems overwhelms me and there is so much to do..
i cannot pause to listen

when foolish tensions fill my day
teach me Lord to pause and pray
and let frustrations slip away

May I hear and then Obey
Let me sit at thy feet and listen~~~~

I love this song, Fr!!!!
