It only takes a spark
to get a fire going,
And soon all those around
can warm up in its glowing;
That's how it is with God's Love,
Once you've experienced it,
You spread the love to everyone
You want to pass it on.
"HOLY HEROES"
Banal na Bayani
"Holy Heroes" is a formation guide composed of different modules for
the Year of the Laity (December 2013-November 2014). With the theme,
“Called to be Saints, sent forth as Heroes”, "Holy Heroes" formation
program is supposed to touch and move the hearts, as well as hone the
minds of the laity towards the renewal of their faith. "Holy Heroes" is a
journey of faith rooted in the sacraments of baptism and confirmation,
inculcating the values of heroes who offered their lives for our freedom
and the modern day ones who live out their faith through heroic deeds
in their ordinary life. Moreover, models of faith and discipleship led by
our Mother Mary, call us to a process of seriously becoming holy in our
faith and heroes in our deeds. In the end, the two become one for it is
the same Spirit that moves the two calls, being a saint and a hero. That is
the Spirit of God, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, through the Holy
Spirit that moves us to become a “Holy Hero.”
The Formation Team of Holy Heroes does not claim ownership of the
contents of this formation program. Most of them came from the very
rich resources of Church documents, including the Scriptures, and from
other writings of holy heroes, holy and brave men and women who
have shared their works and examples generously. The Holy Heroes
Formation Team discerned on what materials to include, and arranged
them in way that the Spirit can flow through them in the actual sessions.
Moreover, they added some of their own reflections and thoughts,
creativity and style so that the whole program can be more useful to
everyone and get the best benefits from them especially the ones we are
celebrating and honoring: the Laity.
"Holy Heroes: Called to be Saints...Sent forth as Heroes" is a Formation
Program for the Year of the Laity by the Episcopal Commission on the
Laity - Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP).
Some of the images found in this module were taken from the collection
of Marcello Silvestri, a well-established Italian artist dedicated to
evangelization through art. Painting on religious themes is for him a
spiritual experience and a vocation. Some images were also taken from
the powerpoint presentations of Rev. Fr. Paolo O. Pirlo, SHMI, who
published a book under the Sons of the Holy Mary Immaculate (SHMI)
Quality Catholic Publications (QCP) entitled "The Apostles' Creed".
Some images/illustrations were taken from the internet.

MODULE 1: Opening Prayer
Lay Your Heart to be Holy
(1) OPENING SONG
Sa Pagmamahal, Naroroon ang Diyos
(Ubi Caritas - Taize)
Ubi caritas et amor
Ubi caritas Deus ibi est.
Sa pagmamahal, naroroon ang Diyos.
Sa pagmamahal, naroroon ang Diyos.
(2) AWARENESS OF GOD
Accept the strength that comes
from the grace of Christ Jesus.
- 2 Timothy 2:1
I am leaning on the heart of God.
I am resting there in silence.
All the turmoil that exhausts me
is brought to bear on this great love.
No resistance or complaint is heard
as I lean upon God’s welcome.
There is gladness for my coming.
There is comfort for my pain.
I lean, and lean, and lean
upon this heart that hurts with me.
Strength lifts the weight of my distress.
Courage wraps around my troubles.
No miracle of instant recovery.
No taking away of life’s burdens.
Yet, there is solace for my soul,
and refuge for my exiled tears.
It is enough for me to know
the heart of God is with me,
full of mercy and compassion,
rending to the wounds I bear.
- Joyce Rupp
(3) SONG-PRAYER OF FORGIVENESS
Create in Me a Clean Heart (Psalm 51)
Couples for Christ
Refrain
Create in me a clean heart
Put a new and right spirit within me
Cast me not away from Your presence
And take not Your Ho- ly Spirit from me
Verse 1
Have mercy on me, O God, in Your goodness
In Your compassion, blot out all my sin
Thoroughly cleanse me from all of my guilt
Wash me till I’m whiter than snow
Verse 2
Restore in me the joy of Your salvation
Uphold me with a willing spirit
So I will teach transgressors Your ways
And sinners will return to You (Refrain)
Verse 3
Your are pleased with sincerity of heart
Not with sacrifices or with holocausts
My sacrifice is a broken spirit
For You will not refuse a humble heart (Refrain)
(4) WORD OF GOD
John 15: 4-9
Remain in me, as I in you. As a branch cannot bear fruit
all by itself, unless it remains part of the vine,
neither can you unless you remain in me.
I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains
in me, with me in him, bears fruit in plenty;
for cut off from me you can do nothing.
Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like
a branch -- and withers; these branches are collected
and thrown on the fire and are burnt.
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, you
may ask for whatever you please and you will get it.
It is to the glory of my Father that you should bear
much fruit and be my disciples.
I have loved you just as the Father has loved me.
Remain in my love.

(3) PSALM-PRAYER OF FORGIVENESS
How blessed are those whose offence
is forgiven, whose sin blotted out.
How blessed are those to whom Yahweh
imputes no guilt, whose spirit
harbours no deceit.
I said not a word, but my bones wasted away
from groaning all the day;
Day and night your hand lay heavy upon me;
my heart grew parched as stubble in summer drought.
I made my sin known to you,
did not conceal my guilt.
I said, ‘I shall confess my offence to Yahweh.’
And you, for your part, took away my guilt,
forgave my sin.
That is why each of your faithful ones
prays to you in time of distress.
Even if great floods overflow,
they will never reach your faithful.
You are a refuge for me,
you guard me in trouble,
with songs of deliverance you surround me.
I shall instruct you and teach you
the way to go;
I shall not take my eyes off you.
Be not like a horse or a mule;
that does not understand bridle or bit;
if you advance to master them,
there is no means of bringing them near.
Countless troubles are in store for the wicked,
but one who trusts in Yahweh
is enfolded in his faithful love.
Rejoice in Yahweh, exult all you upright,
shout for joy, you honest of heart.
- Psalm 32
(4) WORD OF GOD
John 15: 9-14
I have loved you just as the Father has loved me.
Remain in my love.
If you keep my commandments you will remain in my
love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments
and remain in his love.
I have told you this so that my own joy
may be in you and your joy be complete.
This is my commandment:
love one another, as I have loved you.
No one can have greater love
than to lay down his life for his friends.
You are my friends,
if you do what I command you.
ALTERNATIVE SCRIPTURE
• YOUTH: Luke 9: 23-25
• POOR: Matthew 5: 13-16
(5) REFLECTION
• Do you recognize that as the Father
has loved the Son, the Son has
personally loved each one of us,
including oneself?
• Being loved by Jesus, everyone is
called to share and offer his/her life
for others. Are you ready to follow in
his footsteps?
Youth:
• We are asked to carry our own crosses. Do you
recognize and accept the crosses which you carry in
life?
• In denying the enticements of the world, are you
willing to lay down your life for Jesus and others?
Poor:
• Being poor has many meanings. What other
poverties do you see in the world around you?
• In your present situation, what is your poverty and
what is it trying to tell you?

Disillusioned Catholics
• Like Peter, have you doubted the Lord in your life?
• What is the Lord trying to tell you in this Scriptural
Passage?
Heavenly Father,
You have given us grace to pray with one heart and one
voice; and have promised to hear the prayers of two or
three who gather in your name; fulfill now, we pray, the
prayers and longings of your people.
For the peace of the whole world, for the well being of
the holy Church of God, and for the unity of all, let us
pray to the Lord.

joy in view of the morning star

(5) REFLECTION
What is it in your faith that you
REJOICE over and would like to
PROCLAIM to others?
And my soul, my soul, rise up and greet this day with
gratitude, in a stance of humble remembering
For all I am, and all I am called to be, is held in the
hands of a Creator who daily loves me into life.
Gracious God,
- Joyce Rupp
(3) PRAYER FOR FORGIVENESS
God of mercy and compassion, deep within me is a
longing to keep on renewing the love that you have
bestowed upon me.
May your Spirit give strength to all your people as they
work and witness in your world. Through Mary, unite
us in your truth and love, and help us to show your love
to others
Response: God of love, grant our prayer
I am sorry for the many times that I make myself busy
about the many things that I consider important in
life and ignore the equally important and probably
more important than we thought they would be: our
nourishment and renewal.
You renew us everyday but we fail to recognize your
constant love and care; You nourish us with your
strength and energy that sustain us
in our day to day struggles.
To you Lord, we give thanks and guide us with your
Spirit; so that we may continue to know the way to the
perfect nourishment and renewal in your love.
Amen.
(4) WORD OF GOD
Luke 1: 46-55
And Mary said: My soul proclaims the greatness of
the Lord 47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon the humiliation of his
servant. Yes, from now onwards all generations will
call me blessed, for the Almighty has done great things
for me. Holy is his name, and his faithful love extends
age after age to those who fear him. He has used the
power of his arm, he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes from their thrones and
raised high the lowly. He has filled the starving with
good things, sent the rich away empty. He has come to
the help of Israel his servant, mindful of his faithful love
-according to the promise he made to our ancestors -- of
his mercy to Abraham and to his descendants for ever.

Magnificat of Resurrection
(based on John 20: 19-21
from RSCJ Community Prayer Book)
My soul sings and my spirit delights and rejoices, O
faithful God, which was rolled over our hearts and we
are risen.
Yes, from this day forward all generations will call us
blessed for the Almighty has called us forth from death
and we have responded.
Holy is the name of God, and compassion reaches from
age to age for those who walk hand in hand with the
everlasting One.
You have shown power over death. You have humiliated
those who believe they could destroy your living word.
You have enfeebled those who would rule by their own
might and empowered the simple people who trust in
you, O God who creates and companions.
The anguished of heart are stilled and made whole
again by this good news, and the arrogant are reduced
to eternal confusion.
You have come to the help of Israel, your faithful
one, Israel who remembers you the God who saves...
according to the history of our time with you... Israel
who remembers you are the God who saves us from
bondage, from faithlessness, and from ulimate violence.
You are the Forever Living One
The Shatterer of Death.
Amen.

Mariang Ina Ko

Maging aking tulay, sa langit mong pakay, Sa bingit ng hukay, tangnan aking kamay. (Koro) Sabihin sa kanya aking dusa’t saya, Ibulong sa kanya, minamahal ko siya. (Koro)

Pagkakaibigan
Ang kaibiga’y mag-aalay ng sarili niyang buhay; Walang hihigit sa yaring pag-aalay. Kung paanong mahal Ako ng Aking Ama, Sa inyo’y Aking ipinadarama. Sa pag-ibig Ko, kayo sana ay manahan, At bilin Ko sa inyo ay magmahalan. Pinili ka’t hinirang upang mahalin Nang mamunga’t bunga mo’y panatilihin. Humayo ka’t mamunga nang masagana, Kagalakang walang hanggang ipamamana
(2) WORD OF GOD
John 15: 10-17
If you keep my commandments you will remain in my
love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments
and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my
own joy may be in you and your joy be complete.
This is my commandment: love one another, as I have
loved you. No one can have greater love than to lay
down his life for his friends.
You are my friends, if you do what I command you.
I shall no longer call you servants, because a servant
does not know the master’s business; I call you friends,
because I have made known to you everything I have
learnt from my Father. You did not choose me, no,
I chose you; and I commissioned you to go out and
to bear fruit, fruit that will last; so that the Father
will give you anything you ask him in my name. My
command to you is to love one another.

Mi Ultimo Adios (My Last Farewell)
This 14-stanza poem of Jose Rizal talks about his “Goodbyes”
to his dear Fatherland where his love is dedicated to.
He wrote it on the evening before his execution.
Farewell, dear Fatherland, clime of the sun caress’d
Pearl of the Orient seas, our Eden lost!,
Gladly now I go to give thee this faded life’s best,
And were it brighter, fresher, or more blest
Still would I give it thee, nor count the cost.
Let the sun draw the vapors up to the sky,
And heavenward in purity bear my tardy protest
Let some kind soul o ‘er my untimely fate sigh,
And in the still evening a prayer be lifted on high
From thee, 0 my country, that in God I may rest.
On the field of battle, ‘mid the frenzy of fight,
Others have given their lives, without doubt or heed;
The place matters not-cypress or laurel or lily white,
Scaffold or open plain, combat or martyrdom’s plight,
T’is ever the same, to serve our home and country’s need.
Pray for all those that hapless have died,
For all who have suffered the unmeasur’d pain;
For our mothers that bitterly their woes have cried,
For widows and orphans, for captives by torture tried
And then for thyself that redemption thou mayst gain.
I die just when I see the dawn break,
Through the gloom of night, to herald the day;
And if color is lacking my blood thou shalt take,
Pour’d out at need for thy dear sake
To dye with its crimson the waking ray.
And when the dark night wraps the graveyard around
With only the dead in their vigil to see
Break not my repose or the mystery profound
And perchance thou mayst hear a sad hymn resound
‘Tis I, O my country, raising a song unto thee.
My dreams, when life first opened to me,
My dreams, when the hopes of youth beat high,
Were to see thy lov’d face, O gem of the Orient sea
From gloom and grief, from care and sorrow free;
No blush on thy brow, no tear in thine eye.
And even my grave is remembered no more
Unmark’d by never a cross nor a stone
Let the plow sweep through it, the spade turn it o’er
That my ashes may carpet earthly floor,
Before into nothingness at last they are blown.
Dream of my life, my living and burning desire,
All hail ! cries the soul that is now to take flight;
All hail ! And sweet it is for thee to expire ;
To die for thy sake, that thou mayst aspire;
And sleep in thy bosom eternity’s long night.
Then will oblivion bring to me no care
As over thy vales and plains I sweep;
Throbbing and cleansed in thy space and air
With color and light, with song and lament I fare,
Ever repeating the faith that I keep.
If over my grave some day thou seest grow,
In the grassy sod, a humble flower,
Draw it to thy lips and kiss my soul so,
While I may feel on my brow in the cold tomb below
The touch of thy tenderness, thy breath’s warm power.
My Fatherland ador’d, that sadness to my sorrow lends
Beloved Filipinas, hear now my last good-by!
I give thee all: parents and kindred and friends
For I go where no slave before the oppressor bends,
Where faith can never kill, and God reigns e’er on high!
Let the moon beam over me soft and serene,
Let the dawn shed over me its radiant flashes,
Let the wind with sad lament over me keen ;
And if on my cross a bird should be seen,
Let it trill there its hymn of peace to my ashes.
Farewell to you all, from my soul torn away,
Friends of my childhood in the home dispossessed !
Give thanks that I rest from the wearisome day !
Farewell to thee, too, sweet friend that lightened my way;
Beloved creatures all, farewell! In death there is rest!

HANDOUT 2
Mi Ultimo Adios
(Huling Paalam)
Sa salin ni Andres Bonifacio
Pinipintuho kong Bayan ay paalam,
Lupang iniirog ng sikat ng araw,
mutyang mahalaga sa dagat Silangan,
kaluwalhatiang sa ami’y pumanaw.
Masayang sa iyo’y aking idudulot
ang lanta kong buhay na lubhang malungkot;
maging maringal man at labis alindog
sa kagalingan mo ay aking ding handog.
Sa pakikidigma at pamimiyapis
ang alay ng iba’y ang buhay na kipkip,
walang agam-agam, maluag sa dibdib,
matamis sa puso at di ikahapis.
Saan man mautas ay dikailangan,
cipres o laurel, lirio ma’y patungan
pakikipaghamok, at ang bibitayan,
yaon ay gayon din kung hiling ng Bayan.
Ako’y mamamatay, ngayong namamalas
na sa silinganan ay namamanaag
yaong maligayang araw na sisikat
sa likod ng luksang nagtabing na ulap.
Ang kulay na pula kung kinakailangan
na maitina sa iyong liway-way,
dugo ko’y isabong at siyang ikinang
ng kislap ng iyong maningning na ilaw
Ang aking adhika sapul magkaisip
ng kasalukuyang bata pang maliit,
ay ang tanghaling ka at minsan masilip
sa dagat Silangan hiyas na marikit.
Natuyo ang luhang sa mata’y nunukal,
taas na ang noo’t walang kapootan,
walang bakas kunot ng kapighatian
gabahid man dungis niyong kahihiyan.
Sa kabuhayang ko ang laging gunita
maningas na aking ninanasa-nasa
ay guminhawa ka ang hiyas ng diwa
hingang papanaw ngayong biglang-bigla.
pag hingang papanaw ngayong biglang-bigla.
Ikaw’y guminhawa laking kagandahang
akoy malugmok, at ikaw ay matanghal,
hiniga’y malagot, mabuhay ka lamang
bangkay ko’y masilong sa iyong Kalangitan.
Kung sa libingan ko’y tumubong mamalas
sa malagong damo mahinhing bulaklak,
sa mga labi mo’y mangyayaring itapat,
sa kaluluwa ko hatik ay igawad.
At sa aking noo nawa’y iparamdam,
sa lamig ng lupa ng aking libingan,
ang init ng iyong paghingang dalisay
at simoy ng iyong paggiliw na tunay.
Bayaang ang buwan sa aki’y ititig
ang iwanag niyang lamlam at tahimik,
liwayway bayaang sa aki’y ihatid
magalaw na sinag at hanging hagibis.
Kung sakasakaling bumabang humantong
sa krus ko’y dumapo kahit isang ibon
doon ay bayaan humuning hinahon
at dalitin niya payapang panahon.
Bayaan ang ningas ng sikat ng araw
ula’y pasingawin noong kainitan,
magbalik sa langit ng boong dalisay
kalakip ng aking pagdaing na hiyaw.
Bayaang sino man sa katotang giliw
tangisang maagang sa buhay pagkitil;
kung tungkol sa akin ay may manalangin
idalangin, Bayan, yaring pagka himbing.
15
Idalanging lahat yaong nangamatay,
mangagatiis hirap na walang kapantay;
mga ina naming walang kapalaran
na inihihibik ay kapighatian.
Kung magka gayon na’y aalintanahin
na ako sa limot iyong ihabilin
pagka’t himpapawid at ang panganorin
mga lansangan mo’y aking lilibutin.
Ang mga bao’t pinapangulila,
ang mga bilanggong nagsisipagdusa;
dalanginin namang kanilang makita
ang kalayaan mong, ikagiginhawa.
Matining na tunog ako sa dingig mo,
ilaw, mga kulay, masamyong pabango,
ang ugong at awit, pag hibik sa iyo,
pag asang dalisay ng pananalig ko.
At kung an madilim na gabing mapanglaw
ay lumaganap na doon sa libinga’t
tanging mga patay ang nangaglalamay,
huwag bagabagin ang katahimikan.
Bayang iniirog, sakit niyaring hirap,
Katagalugang ko pinakaliliyag,
dinggin mo ang aking pagpapahimakas;
diya’y iiwan ko sa iyo ang lahat.
Ang kanyang hiwagay huwag gambalain;
kaipala’y maringig doon ang taginting,
tunog ng gitara’t salterio’y mag saliw,
ako, Bayan yao’t kita’y aawitin.
Ako’y patutungo sa walang busabos,
walang umiinis at berdugong hayop;
pananalig doo’y di nakasasalot,
si Bathala lamang dooy haring lubos.
Kung ang libingan ko’y limat na ng lahat
at wala ng kurus at batang mabakas,
bayaang linangin ng taong masipag,
lupa’y asarolin at kauyang ikalat.
Paalam, magulang at mga kapatid
kapilas ng aking kaluluwa’t dibdib
mga kaibigan bata pang maliit
sa aking tahanan di na masisilip.
At mga buto ko ay bago matunaw
maowi sa wala at kusang maparam,
alabok ng iyong latag ay bayaang
siya ang babalang doo’y makipisan.
Pag pasasalamat at napahinga rin,
paalam estranherang kasuyo ko’t aliw,
paalam sa inyo, mga ginigiliw;
mamatay ay siyang pagkakagupiling!

INTEGRATION
Magnificat
My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever.

MODULE 1: Closing Prayer
(1) PRAYER
Psalm 139:1-18, 23-24
O L ord, you have probed me, you know me:
you know when I sit and stand; you understand my thoughts from afar.
My travels and my rest you mark;
with all my ways you are familiar.
Even before a word is on my tongue, LORD, you know
it all.
Behind and before you encircle me and rest your hand
upon me.
Such knowledge is beyond me, far too lofty for me to
reach.
Where can I hide from your spirit?
From your presence, where can I flee?
If I ascend to the heavens, you are there;
if I lie down in Sheol, you are there too.
If I fly with the wings of dawn and alight beyond the
sea,
Even there your hand will guide me, your right hand
hold me fast.
If I say, “Surely darkness shall hide me,
and night shall be my light” –
Darkness is not dark for you, and night shines as the
day. Darkness and light are but one.
You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my
mother’s womb.
I praise you, so wonderfully you made me;
wonderful are your works! My very self you knew;
my bones were not hidden from you,
When I was being made in secret,
fashioned as in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes foresaw my actions; in your book all are
written down; my days were shaped, before one came
to be.
How precious to me are your designs, O God;
how vast the sum of them!
Were I to count, they would outnumber the sands;
to finish, I would need eternity…
Probe me, God, know my heart; try me, know my
concerns.
See if my way is crooked, then lead me in the ancient
paths.
You will hear My voice
I claim you as My choice
Be still, and know I am near
I am hope for all who are hopeless
I am eyes for all who long to see
In the shadows of the night,
I will be your light
Come and rest in Me
Chorus:
Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine
I am strength for all the despairing
Healing for the ones who dwell in shame
All the blind will see, the lame will all run free
And all will know My name
Chorus:
Come and follow Me
I am the Word that leads all to freedom
I am the peace the world cannot give
I will call your name, embracing all your pain
Stand up, now, walk, and live
Chorus:
Come and follow Me
(2) CLOSING SONG
You Are Mine
David Haas
I will come to you in the silence
I will lift you from all your fear

(1) PRAYER
THIS JESUS CHALLENGES ME
I am FURIOUS and he tells me: FORGIVE!
I am afraid, and he tells me: TAKE COURAGE!
I have DOUBTS and he says to me: HAVE
CONFIDENCE!
I feel RESTLESS, and he says to me: BE CALM!
I prefer to go, MY OWN WAY, and he tells me: COME
AND FOLLOW ME
I make MY OWN PLANS, and he says to me: FORGET
ABOUT THEM!
I aim towards MATERIAL GOODS, and he says LEAVE
THEM BEHIND!
I want SECURITY, and he says: I PROMISE YOU
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
I like to live MY OWN LIFE, and he says: LOSE YOUR
LIFE!
I believe I AM GOOD, and he tells me GOOD IS NOT
SUFFICIENT!
I like to BE THE BOSS, and he says: SERVE!
I like to COMMAND OTHERS, and he says: OBEY!
I like to UNDERSTAND, and he says, BELIEVE!
I like CLARITY, and he speaks to me in PARABLES.
I like POETRY and he speaks to me in REALITIES.
I lke my TRANQUILITY, and he likes me to be
DISTURBED.
I like VIOLENCE, and he says: PEACE BE WITH YOU!
I draw the SWORD, and he says: PUT THAT AWAY!
I think of REVENGE, and he says: OFFER THE OTHER
CHEEK!
I speak of ORDER, and he says: I HAVE COME TO
BRING THE SWORD!
I choose HATRED, and he says: LOVE YOUR ENEMIES.
I, too, would like to follow another Master
Who would be more certain and less demanding.
But I experienced almost the same as Peter:
“I do not know of anyone else,
WHO HAS THE WORDS OF ETERNAL LIFE!”
Pe. Zezinho, SCJ, Brazil
(Proclaiming His Kingdom,
John Fuehllenbach, SVD, pp.
73-74)
(2) CLOSING SONG
Bayan Ko
Ang bayan kong Pilipinas
Lupain ng ginto’t bulaklak
Pag-ibig na sa kanyang palad
Nag-alay ng ganda’t dilag
At sa kanyang yumi at ganda
Dayuhan ay nahalina
Bayan ko, binihag ka
Nasadlak sa dusa
CHORUS
Ibon mang may layang lumipad
Kulungin mo at umiiyak
Bayan pa kayang sakdal-dilag
Ang ‘di magnasang makaalpas
Pilipinas kong minumutya
Pugad ng luha at dalita
Aking adhika
Makita kang sakdal laya
I try to sow HARMONY, and he says: I HAVE COME TO
CAST FIRE ON EARTH!
I like to be the GREATEST, and he says: LEARN TO BE
AS SMALL AS A CHILD!
I like to remain HIDDEN, and he says: LET YOUR
LIGHT SHINE!
I look at the BEST PLACE and he says: SIT IN THE
LAST BENCH!
I like to be NOTICED, and he says: PRAY IN YOUR
ROOM BEHIND LOCKED DOORS!
No, I don’t understand this Jesus.
He provokes me. He confuses me.
Like so many of his disciples

(1) PRAYER
(1) PRAYER
God of the journey, we need a burning bush to set our
hearts aflame with deep love of you.
God of all blessings,
source of all life,
giver of all grace:
When the road of life seems long and tedious, when the
dying and rising gets to be too much sometimes, be that
pillar of fire by night and comforting cloud by day so
that we can not only see the way but can be confident of
your gracious presence which is our strength and our
hope.
We are on our way Home. Thank you for your nearness
to us and for encouraging us to trust in you. Amen.
- Joyce Rupp, Out of the Ordinary, p. 227

Gentle Woman
Gentle woman, quiet light, morning star
so strong and bright,
gentle mother peaceful dove
teach us wisdom; teach us love.
You were chosen by the Father:
You were chosen for the Son,
You were chosen from all women
and for woman shining one.
Gentle woman, quiet light, morning star
so strong and bright
gentle mother peaceful dove
teach us wisdom; teach us love
Blessed are you among women
Blessed touch over the true
Blessed they with peaceful spirits
Blessed they with special hearts.
Gentle woman, quiet light,

Gentle woman............Gentle woman
We thank you for the gift of life:
for the breath
that sustains life,
for the food of this earth
that nurtures life,
for the love of family and friends
without which there would be no life.
We thank you
for the mystery of creation:
for the beauty
that the eye can see,
for the joy
that the ear may hear,
for the unknown
that we cannot behold filling the universe with wonder,
for the expanse of space
that draws us beyond the definitions of our selves.
We thank you for setting us in communities:
for families
who nurture our becoming,
for friends
who love us by choice,
for companions at work,
who share our burdens and daily tasks,
for strangers who welcome us
into their midst,
for people from other lands
who call us to grow in understanding,
for children who lighten our moments with delight,
for the unborn, who offer us hope
for the future.
We thank you for this day:
for life and one more day to love,
for opportunity and one more day
to work for justice and peace,
for neighbors and one more person
to love and by whom be loved,
for your grace and one more experience of your
presence,
for your promise:
to be with us,
to be our God,
and to give salvation.
For these, and all blessings,
we give you thanks, eternal, loving God,
through Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

Pass It On
Kurt Kaiser
It only takes a spark to get a fire going,
And soon all those around can warm up in its glowing;
That’s how it is with God’s Love,
Once you’ve experienced it,
Your spread the love to everyone
What a wonderous time is spring,
When all the tress are budding
The birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming;
That’s how it is with God’s love,
Once you’ve experienced it.
You want to sing, it’s fresh like spring,
I wish for you my friend
This happiness that I’ve found;
You can depend on God
It matters not where you’re bound,
I’ll shout it from the mountain top
I want the world to know
The Lord of love has come to me
I want to pass it on.
I’ll shout it from the mountain top
I want the world to know
The Lord of love has come to me
I want to pass it on.

(1) HEART OF WORSHIP
Verse 1:
When the music fades
all is stripped away
and I simply come
longing just to bring
something that’s of worth
that will bless your heart
Pre-chorus:
I’ll bring you more than a song
for a song in itself
is not what you have required
you search much deeper within
through the way things appear
you’re looking into my heart
Chorus:
I’m coming back to the heart of worship
and it’s all about you
It’s all about you, Jesus
I’m sorry Lord for the things I’ve made it
when it’s all about you
it’s all about you, Jesus
Verse 2:
King of endless worth
no one could express
how much you deserve
though I’m weak and poor
all I have is yours
every single breath

Ako’y nananabik makapiling Ka sa bawat sandali.

Tangi kong dalangin, manatili,
Sa Iyong pag-ibig mamalagi.
Awitin ko’y hiling na ang ‘Yong ngiti
ang nais makamit.
At sana’y mabatid ang pagkabighani
ng aking dibdib.
Kung hindi man sasapat ang paghimig,
Hayaang b-hay ko’y sa ‘Yo maiawit.
Ako’y yakapin Mo, h’wag Mong
pahihintulutang malayo.
Poon pakinggan Mo ang sigaw
ng pusong naakit sa ‘Yo.
Sa hustong paggiliw Mo ay lingapin
Nang sa bawat pagpintig ay hanapin.
O pag-alabin Mo, adhika ng puso’y pagningasin Mo.
Ako’y yakapin Mo, sa Iyong pag-ibig ay itago Mo.
Ako’y yakapin Mo.
Lord I come to You
Let my heart be changed, renewed
Flowing from the grace
That I found in You.
And Lord I’ve come to know
The weaknesses I see in me
Will be stripped away
By the power of Your love.
Hold me close
Let Your love surround me
Bring me near

We want to see Jesus,
To reach out and touch Him
And say that we love Him.
Sapagkat nilingap Niya
Kababaan ng Kanyang alipin
Mapalad ang pangalan ko
Sa lahat ng mga bansa
Open our ears Lord
And help us to listen,
Open our eyes Lord
We want to see Jesus.
(13) PILIPINAS KONG MAHAL
Sapagkat gumawa ang Poon
Ng mga dakilang bagay
Banal sa lupa’t langit
Ang pangalan ng Panginoon
Ang bayan ko’y tanging ikaw
Pilipinas Kong Mahal
Ang puso ko at buhay man
Sa iyo’y ibibigay
Luwalhati sa Ama
Sa Anak at sa Espiritu Santo
Kapara noong unang-una
Ngayon at magpakailanman
Tungkulin kong gagampanan
Na lagi kang paglingkuran
Ang laya mo’y babantayan
Pilipinas kong Hirang...

MODULE 3
(14) ALL THAT I AM (MAGNIFICAT)
Refrain: All that I am sings of the God who brings new
life to birth in me.
My spirit soars on the wings of my Lord.
My soul gives glory to the Lord, rejoicing in my saving
God,
who looks upon me in my state, and all the world will
call me blest;
For God works marvels in my sight, and holy, holy is
God’s name.
God’s mercy is from age to age, on those who follow in
fear;
Whose arm is power and strength, and scatters all the
proud of heart;
Who casts the mighty from their thrones and raises up
the lowly ones!

Sa mahinahong paalam ng araw
Sa pag-ihip ng hanging kahapunan
Balabal ko’y init ng ‘yong pag-ibig sa dapit-hapong kay
lamig
Mga bituin kay agang magsigising!
Umaandap, mapaglaro man din
Iyong ngiti’y hatid nila sa akin
Sa diwa ko’t panalangin
Puso ko’y pahimlayin, Inay upang yaring hamog ng
gabing tiwasay
Ay madama ko bilang damping halik ng ‘yong Anak
Ay! Irog kong Inay!
Sa palad mo itago aking palad
Aking bakas, sa inyong bakas ilapat
At iuwi sa tahanan kong dapat
Sa piling ng inyong Anak
gabing tiwasay
Ay! Irog kong Inay!
gabing tiwasay
Ay! Irog ko O Ina kong mahal! Ay! Irog kong Inay!
(17) INANG MAHAL
Inang mahal,
Mariang Ina sa kandungan mo’y nahimlay
Ang sanggol mong aming buhay.
Pakinggan mo
At ihatid aming mga panalangin
Kay Hesus na kaligtasan namin.
Pag-ibig mo, Inang kay tamis,
Ipadama mo sa aming tumatangis.
Turuan mo kaming magmahal
Kay Hesus, aming Tagapagligtas.
Inang mahal,
Huwaran ka ng pagsisilbi sa Diyos
Sa pag-akap mo kay Hesus.
Pakinggan mo,
Ang panalangin naming matularan ka
Sa tindi ng pag-ibig mo sa Kanya.
(18) TO MARY
O how I long to sing you a song of love
To describe the warmth of your smile
The pureness of your heart. O Mary
our Queen of love, our way to the loving Son
Our beautiful way to the loving Son.
When I’m happy you are there to share it
with me When I’m grieving I can call and
you’d console me O how I long to sing you a song of love
To express the happiness that’s deep
within my heart. O Mary
our Queen of love, our way
to the loving Son
Oh teach us to follow you
Long have I waited for you to hear My cry
Long have I waited for you to answer My plea
What you do to you brethren You do it for Me
I am in the brokennes and woundedness of man
COUNTERPOINT:
Yes, you can touch Me
I’m in the least of your brethren
I’m in the weak and small
I need your hands to bear My weary arms
I need your touch to heal My wounded palms.
Yes, you can touch Me
Yes, you can hear Me
(20) STELLA MARIS
Kung itong aming paglalayag
Inabot ng pagkabagabag
Nawa’y mabanaagan ka
Hinirang na tala ng umaga
Kahit alon man ng pangamba
Di alintana sapagkat naro’n ka
Ni unos ng pighati
At kadiliman ng gabi
KORO:
Maria sa puso ninuman
Ika’y tala ng kalangitan
Ningning mo ay walang pagmamaliw
Inang sinta, Inang ginigiliw
Tanglawan kami aming ina
Sa kalangitan naming pita
Nawa’y maging hantungang
Pinakamimithing kaharian (KORO)
(19) IF I COULD TOUCH YOU
If I could touch You, I’d heal Your broken palms
If I could hold You in my arms
I’d call the soft breeze to caress Your weary arms
I’d call the moonbeam to dispel this darkest night
If I could touch You, I would
If I could hear You, Your words of anguish
If You’d just whisper in my ear
The sadness weighing down Your heart that no man
sees
If You’d just call me, I would sing of flaming hope
If I could hear You, I would

Laiko, Banal na Bayani
Tanong ng isang mahirap:
Ano po ba ang banal?
Ano po ba ang bayani?
Tanong ng isang kabataan:
Kailangan pa po ba ng banal?
Kailangan pa po ba ng bayani?
Tanong isang nawawalan ng pag-asa na mananampalataya:
Saan na po napunta ang banal?
Saan na po napunta ang bayani?
Sa isang malumanay na tinig,
Sa isang dampi ng ihip ng hangin,
Sa isang mainit na yakap sa dibdib
Sa isang tumitimong pintig sa pusong naninimdim
MERON…
Meron pang banal at bayani
Meron pang handang buhay ay magbuwis
Meron pang pusong handang magpakasakit
Meron pang hanadang mamatay
Para sa dakilang pagmamahal.
Dahil mayroon pang IKAW
Dahil may mga laiko pang binyagan
Kinumpilan at itinalaga
Para sa bayan, para sa Simbahan
Ikaw , laiko, banal
Ikaw , laiko, bayani
Tayong lahat, Banal na Bayani!
Higit sa lahat, kung bakit may banal at bayani pa
Dahil Ako at pag-ibig ko ay di nagmamaliw
Ako ,na patuloy na nagmamahal at pumapatnubay
Ako,,na nag-alay ng buhay
Para sa iyo, upang ikaw din
ay matutong magmagahal
at mag-alay ng buhay
para sa Maykapal, kapwa at bayan. Laiko, huwag kang mangamba
Tinawag kita, minamahal kita
Ikaw ay akin (cf.Is. 43:1)
IKAW ang aking BANAL na BAYANI
--- Ako ang iyong Panginoon

Live Christ! Share Christ!
Lyrics by Archbishop Socrates Villegas, D.D.
Music by Ryan Cayabyab
We are blessed, blessed a hundredfold
The cross of Jesus Christ in our holy shores
Is now five hundred years awesome to behold!
He has made us all new, we belong to His fold
The gospel is our blessing,
our mission to the poor and we,
the children, bring His salvation
To the rest of the world, His message of compassion
To all of humanity, His challenge of conversion
We are blessed, we are loved
We are called, we are sent
We will teach, we will serve
We are Christ’s, we are Church!
San Lorenzo Ruiz, San Pedro Calungsod
All holy Filipinos bring to the good Lord
Our praise and gratitude our offering of love
Our pledge to be faithful to the last drop of blood
Five hundred years of Jubilee!
Five hundred years of blessings
Five hundred years of graces unto life everlasting
