A CHAPLET FOR THE SOUL

Sino Ako

Hiram sa Diyos ang aking buhay

Ikaw at ako 'y tanging handog lamang
Di ko ninais na ako 'y isilang
Ngunit salamat dahil may buhay

Ligaya ko na ako 'y isilang

'Pagkat tao ay mayroong dangal
Sinong may pag-ibig, sinong magmamahal
Kung di ang tao, Diyos ang pinagmulan
Kung di ako umibig, kung di ko man bigyang halaga
Ang buhay kong handog, ang buhay kong hiram sa Diyos
Kung di ako magmamahal, sino ako ...

Ligaya ko na ako 'y isilang

'Pagkat tao ay mayroong dangal
Sinong may pag-ibig, sinong magmamahal
Kung di ang tao, Diyos ang pinagmulan
Kung di ako umibig, kung di ko man bigyang halaga
Ang buhay kong handog, ang buhay kong hiram sa Diyos
Kung di ako magmamahal, sino ako ...

NOVENA PRAYERS FOR THE SOUL

, .
All: Lord, help us to see death for what it really is - the end of poverty and the beginning of
riches, the end of frustration and the beginning of fulfillment, the end of fear and the beginning
of tranquility, the end of pain and the beginning of joy, the end of weakness and the beginning
of strength.

o Lord Jesus, whose rfch and unforgettable life was lived in the faith that the love which
surrounds us is as real and dependable as that of a father, let the same sense of trust and hope
steady us at this time.

Let not grief overwhelm us, or a sense of loss embitter us, but in the hour of our sadness, let
there arise a new joy for so much given to us. Help us to see that what we love becomes a part
of us, interfused with our lives, blended with mind and memory, hollowed forever within our
soul. Let not grief take away our hope or bereavement blind us to what always remains good
and lovely and indestructible.
a gracious spirit of peace, come alive within our experience and hurt, within our sorrows and
isolation, within the sadness of today and loneliness of tomorrow, come alive as the peace and
trust which nothing life or death can kill. Cast out our fears and let not our hearts be troubled,
knowing that this world remains our Father's house. These our prayers, we offer for the soul of
____ through Christ our Lord. Amen.

LEADER: Eternal rest give unto ,0 Lord

BE NOT AFRAID

You shall cross the barren desert, but you shall not die of thirst.
You shall wander far in safety, though you do not know the way.
You shall speak your words in foreign lands and all will understand,
You shall see the face of God and live.
Be not afraid, I go before you a/ways, Come follow me and I will give you rest.

If you pass through raging waters in the sea, you shall not drown.
If you walk amid the burning flames, you shall not be harmed,
If you stand before the power of hell and death is at your side,
Know that I am with you through it all.
Be not afraid, I go before you a/ways, Come follow me and I will give you rest.

PEACE IS FLOWING LIKE A RIVER

Peace is flowing like a river, flowing out of you and me.

Flowing out into the desert, setting all the captives free.

His love is flowing like a river, flowing out of you and me.
! Flowing out into the desert, setting all the captives free.

Healing flowing like a river, flowing out of you and me.

Flowing out into the desert, setting all the captives free.

Leader: In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. All: Amen.
