"Here I Am To Worship"
Light of the world
You step down into darkness
Opened my eyes let me see
Beauty that made
this heart adore you
hope of a life spent with you
And here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
King of all days
Oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly you came to the earth you created
All for love's sake became poor
Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
I'll never know how much it cost
to see my sin upon that cross
Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
So Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you're my God

9:33 PM
Haha.. this is the testimony i shared on Easter Big Day!such a wonderful experiencelol! =)if u nv listen clearly tt daythis is wat i shared~haha~Hello everyone, I’m Xin Chi from B1. I’m 16 this year and I’m currently studying in Clementi Town Secondary. As you can tell from my accent, I’m not Singaporean by birth. I actually came to Singapore from China when I was 10 years-old.
Before coming to Heart of God Church, I was a shy and quiet person. I was afraid of talking to classmates who I didn’t know, and would never raise my hand to ask a question even if I had one.
My life revolved around 3 things – school, sleep and basketball. But throughout my boring life, I had one very awesome friend – Zi Ang. Zi Ang and I go way back. I first came to know him in Primary school. And since both of us are from China, we clicked really well. Even after we went to different secondary schools, we would meet up every day to hang out and play basketball. We were so alike in the way we talked, and we spent so much time together.
One day in October 2006, out of nowhere, Zi Ang invited me to church! Out of all people, I never expected that Zi Ang would go to church or even invite me to church.
However, since Zi Ang was the one who asked, I agreed to go! And when I did come to church, I was shocked by what I saw! I expected long wooden benches and a huge cross on the wall. But how many of you think that our church is really cool? That day, I really enjoyed myself. Yet I felt that I was not ready to become a Christian and after 1 month, I stopped coming.
However, even after I left, Zi Ang kept coming back to church! And as he kept coming back, I noticed that he was changing. He stopped scolding vulgarities, and instead of spending his time slacking, he would always go to church! I somehow felt that I lost Zi Ang to church, but at the same time, I was curious about what was causing the change.
So when he invited me to come back during Easter last year, I agreed! I can still clearly remember the worship song that service. It was “Could I Ever”, and as the song played, a video from the Passion of Christ was shown. I felt the presence of God so strongly and tears just flowed from my eyes. At the end of the service when Pastor How asked who wanted to invite Jesus into their lives, I raised my hand and made the best decision of my life!
Things continued smoothly for a few months until I received my mid-year results. I did really badly and was amongst the bottom few in class. Seeing that I spent most of my time playing basketball, it was quite expected. My parents were furious, and stopped me from coming to church. Because of that, I decided to stop playing basketball so often.
I also spent less time on the computer and more time studying. I successfully improved my grades, but by then, my desire to come back to church died.
But Zi Ang just kept inviting me to church. I finally came back during the Opening service at SingPost. That day I experienced the presence of God like never before and after a long time of being away from God’s presence, I felt like a fish back in water. That day, I made a decision that I should have made a long time ago. I decided that I would be faithful to come back to church every week!
A major turning point in my life was during the first service of 2008 where Pastor How shared the vision for the year. He talked about how youths, and not just adults, can do great things for God! After that day, something on the inside of me just changed.
I began to dream about doing great things for God, and I started reading my Bible and praying for my friends every day. And instead of keeping quiet during follow-up, I kept asking my leader, Jian Ming, questions about the Bible! Moreover, just one month ago, I started serving in the usher ministry!
In school, I became more confident. In fact, during Valentine’s day, I gave out 60 lollipops to my classmates, some of whom I didn’t know! Just recently, I went out for dinner with a group of classmates. They were not the usual friends I hung out with, but I decided to get to know them! That night, as I bowed my head to thank God for my food, my classmates were surprised and started asking about Christianity. Because of that, 6 of them came to church with me! The old Xin Chi would never dare to even invite my classmates to church. But there was just something different because I had experienced God.
Now, instead of a boring life, I am living an exciting and fulfilled life! Xin Chi Version 1.0 is a thing of the past, and the new and improved Xin Chi Version 2.0 is now here!
And truly, the creators of Xin Chi 2.0 are really my Pastors, leaders, friends and of course, God. I would just like to take this opportunity to thank them for being so patient with me.
And friends, if it is your first time here today, I just want to encourage you to take a step of faith to believe in God! Your life will be radically transformed just as mine was. Thank you!
