Song : I Know Who I Am (Israel Houghton - A Deeper Level)
What's fascinating about the song is that song reminds us who we are in Christ, how God found us and touched us and gave us all an identity! I love the way Israel's songs are written, totally awesome!
We found a demo video online where you can watch Israel Houghton plays the song on his guitar and listen to the song. Might as well sing along and claim the promise too! :)
Song Lyrics : I Know Who I Am (Key A)
Chords : Here (Preview mode from PraiseCharts)
Chorus
I know who I am
Know who I am
I know who I am
I am Yours I am Yours
(Repeat)
And You are mine
Jesus You are mine
You are mine
Jesus You are mine
Verse
I was running and You found me
I was blinded and You gave me sight
You put a song of praise in me
I was broken and You healed me
I was dying and You gave me life
Lord You are my identity
I know I know
Bridge
I am forgiven
I am Your friend
I am accepted
I know who I am
I am secured
I'm confident
That I am loved
I know who I am
I am alive
I am set free
I belong to You
You belong to me
Ohh-hhh

The Malaysian Christian Songwriters Network Website
Hmmm .. dunno why I never saw this website before. Not sure when it was created, but it was annonymously (cos there's no name on whose the website owner) collected and displayed many many Malaysian Christian Artiste and Songwriters.
The list is quite complete and of course they have the usual Top Song Writers .. like Ng Wah Lock, Kelvin, Patrick Ng and more.
You also get to see and listen (they have a MP3 download section, pretty limited) and an Online Radio too! Lots of feature of Chinese and also Malay songs apart from English worship songs.
They have quick links to teach individuals about Songwriting, Recording and also Sharing your Songs. :) The steps are pretty practical.
And if you wanna see what are the Malaysian Albums released year on year from 1992 to 2007, click on this link that MCSN have compiled. - http://www.m-csn.com/MCSN/malaysianalbums.htm

The Ten Commandments - feat Jeremy Camp "I Am Willing"
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
Condemned to die by Pharaoh while just a baby, Hebrew Moses is set adrift on the River Nile by his mother and his sister. Rescued by the daughter of Pharaoh, he grows up thinking he's an Egyptian prince.
Eventually exiled from Egypt when he is exposed as a Jew, he is touched by God, and told that he will lead his enslaved Chosen People to the Promised Land. With the hand of God firmly on his shoulder, and with faith as his only weapon, Moses performs miracles, casts down plagues, evades a pursuing Egyptian army, parts the Red Sea and, after forty years of leading the Hebrew Chosen Ones to the Promised Land, is embraced by God and led to a better place.
What makes this version of "The Ten Commandments" unique is that it highlights Moses' family, both real and extended, on this long journey.
Filled with high adventure, the miraculous, and a gentle sense of humor, "The Ten Commandments" showcases Moses, the reluctant prophet, who was the only man in Biblical history to see the face of God and call him 'friend.'
Watch the Video of "I Am Willing" featuring Jeremy Camp .. its awesome! Can't wait to watch this movie.

GT's Live Worship - WORTHY Worship Nite
If we took away the lights, the stage, the instruments, the mics .... I believe everyone would have just kept on worshipping. There was this amazing presence of God that was touching the 1,000+ worshippers in church. Managed to capture a short video when the church was singing in accapella the beautiful song ... Heart of Worship (below).
The presence of God blew me away ... many whom i spoke with said how wonderful the presence of God "IS" during the worship nite, and that we should have this more often!!!
I believe that the heart of man, is always seeking to WORSHIP, and a nite dedicated to Worship will always draw men into His House!

More than a thousand came together to give woship to our God
He is WORTHY of all praise and worship

Experience True Live Worship - Friday at Glad Tidings
The nite is themed WORTHY! We are coming together as worshippers to honour our God and to place Him above all else for He is most WORTHY of all Praise!
We are all extremely excited as the whole church comes collaboratively together to set this Worship nite in motion. It will not be a loud banging concert or a high quality presentation; quite the opposite it will be a worship event where everyone comes together and worship in their elements of dance, singing, playing musical instruments, working the av equipments .... in an awe-inspired worship to God!! :)
Even the songs chosen have been rather unique. In "these sort of events" (trying not to generalized concerts and worship events), the latest and cool songs are always picked. But the songs that are on the song list for WORTHY is just totally different! I don't wanna give it away, cos it would be great if you could enjoy all the bits of singing and worship tomorrow nite!! Okies... one hint .. we have songs ranging from the 80s to the current century!! :)
Take this opportunity to bring along family and frens to the Worship nite, so that they can experience God in a holistic way! Make sure you get to church on time and don't miss out on any parts of the Worthy Worship Nite. Come and join us for an EXCITING nite in Worship!!
