Benedictus

I long to be just like Thee
kind and sincere just like Thee

All of what's honest and true
faithfully constant and pure
upright and in prudence secure
rooted in truth

I long to be just like Thee
mild and austere just like Thee

Daring to live holiness
following Christ's steps no less
united in love and respect
free from regrets

I long to be just like Thee
just and discreet just like Thee

Faithful to duty and vow
aspiring to change here and now
spreading God's words all throughout
devoted no doubt

Benedictus is over and surely, the efforts of the people who worked hard for this finally paid off. Months [?] of preparations, 2 weeks of practices and approximately 2 hours of dancing and singing showcased Assumption Antipolo's 35 years of good memories. :)

I'm actually proud that a lot were commending third year's performance. Naaalala ko yung kwento nina Michelle. They saw Sr. Irene and she said daw "Girls, I like your song!" while attempting to do the actions of it. It's just heart-warming since it came from our principal. Amidst the 3 days of wearing our gala uniform and suffering in high-heeled shoes, everything did actually pay off.
