Hallelujah x4 |
| [00:15.01] |
is this the grand finale? |
| [00:16.31] |
it’s not quite over yet |
| [00:17.87] |
can honestly look back and |
| [00:19.73] |
say that I have no regrets |
| [00:21.41] |
nope, not a single one |
| [00:22.97] |
look at what I’ve become |
| [00:24.70] |
what’s that? |
| [00:25.88] |
a grateful man |
| [00:26.89] |
with a precious wife and son |
| [00:28.56] |
wasn’t even 21 |
| [00:30.06] |
my future signed and sealed |
| [00:31.87] |
by 24 lost it all |
| [00:33.74] |
first was the record deal |
| [00:35.28] |
then my confidence |
| [00:36.71] |
that went out the window too |
| [00:38.51] |
ain’t lookin’ for no sympathy |
| [00:39.83] |
I’m simply sharin’ all |
| [00:41.13] |
that I’ve been through |
| [00:41.94] |
you know I don’t like |
| [00:42.70] |
to call you a fan |
| [00:43.50] |
this can bring a |
| [00:44.24] |
grown man to tears |
| [00:45.18] |
I mean the fact that |
| [00:45.86] |
some of ya’ll have been |
| [00:46.97] |
riding with me for |
| [00:48.04] |
more than 10 years |
| [00:48.72] |
I know one thing for sure |
| [00:49.52] |
and two things for certain |
| [00:51.77] |
everything went up in flames |
| [00:52.70] |
I came out the fire |
| [00:53.64] |
and I am not the same person |
| [00:55.13] |
now I realize |
| [00:56.19] |
that life is just paying back |
| [00:57.93] |
time that’s borrowed |
| [00:58.74] |
see the fact is |
| [00:59.67] |
we can all be here today |
| [01:01.29] |
gone tomorrow |
| [01:02.34] |
everything’s a test |
| [01:03.40] |
will I pass? |
| [01:04.14] |
the Answer is divine |
| [01:04.89] |
how can I express |
| [01:05.83] |
the way I feel? |
| [01:06.70] |
the first word to come |
| [01:07.76] |
to my mind |
| [01:08.50] |
Hallelujah x4 |
| [01:22.50] |
thank you, Lord |
| [01:23.68] |
Hallelujah x2 |
| [01:29.03] |
I said thank you, Lord |
| [01:30.84] |
Hallelujah x3 |
| [01:37.75] |
okay this is it |
| [01:39.11] |
one final second left |
| [01:40.92] |
what shall I say with |
| [01:42.84] |
my very last breath? |
| [01:44.33] |
forget MC Jin |
| [01:46.08] |
you should get to know me |
| [01:47.70] |
my name is Jin Au-Yeung |
| [01:49.43] |
here’s my testimony |
| [01:50.93] |
I didn’t grow up in the church |
| [01:52.75] |
but God planted a seed |
| [01:54.48] |
when my Aunt Cathy asked me |
| [01:56.16] |
in Jesus did I believe |
| [01:57.46] |
with no hesitation |
| [01:58.21] |
or reservation |
| [01:58.96] |
I replied |
| [01:59.71] |
yes I did |
| [02:00.64] |
truth be told |
| [02:01.26] |
I was eight years old |
| [02:02.26] |
what did I know? |
| [02:02.95] |
I was just a kid |
| [02:04.12] |
years go by |
| [02:04.74] |
my life story |
| [02:05.80] |
I acted as my own author |
| [02:06.92] |
just chasin’ my dreams |
| [02:08.35] |
along with all the things |
| [02:09.72] |
the world could offer |
| [02:11.02] |
I can’t even lie |
| [02:12.14] |
all the times |
| [02:13.64] |
that I would pray |
| [02:14.57] |
it was shallow |
| [02:15.57] |
and only when I wanted |
| [02:16.24] |
something to go my way |
| [02:18.06] |
the unconditional love |
| [02:18.87] |
that He has shown |
| [02:19.68] |
it leaves me on my face |
| [02:21.22] |
he’s been so patient, so kind |
| [02:22.48] |
shown me so much grace |
| [02:24.53] |
teach me |
| [02:25.14] |
how to serve You |
| [02:25.90] |
Lord |
| [02:26.52] |
I’Il follow for the |
| [02:27.14] |
rest of my days |
| [02:28.07] |
sing with all |
| [02:28.82] |
my soul, my heart, |
| [02:29.69] |
my strength |
| [02:30.38] |
I give you all of this praise |
| [02:31.92] |
Hallelujah x4 |
| [02:44.92] |
Thank you, Lord |
| [02:45.68] |
Hallelujah x2 |
| [02:48.91] |
I said thank you, Lord |
| [02:52.82] |
Hallelujah x3 |
| [03:04.69] |
I can still remember |
| [03:06.33] |
sittin’ on that subway |
| [03:08.38] |
leavin’ the Ruff Ryders’ office |
| [03:10.99] |
lookin’ at that check |
| [03:12.67] |
thinkin’ to myself, |
| [03:15.29] |
wow, this is actually happenin’ |
| [03:17.66] |
I’ve finally… |
| [03:18.90] |
I’ve arrived; I’m here |
| [03:21.01] |
and everything that happened |
| [03:22.19] |
after that was like a blur |
| [03:23.94] |
just... |
| [03:25.55] |
it was so much fun |
| [03:29.53] |
it was so much pain |
| [03:31.65] |
and then ultimately... |
| [03:33.32] |
just when I thought it was |
| [03:34.26] |
comin’ to a end |
| [03:35.75] |
my career was comin’ to a end |
| [03:37.68] |
my journey was comin’ to a end |
| [03:40.29] |
God, you picked me up and |
| [03:42.16] |
You lifted me up and showed me |
| [03:44.21] |
that what I thought was the end |
| [03:47.26] |
was really just the beginnin’ |
| [03:49.87] |
so all I ask Lord is that |
| [03:53.11] |
from here on out |
| [03:57.72] |
that You be the center |
| [04:00.39] |
for anybody that listens to this |
| [04:03.31] |
they don’t just hear |
| [04:04.37] |
they don’t hear songs |
| [04:06.24] |
in XIV:LIX |
| [04:07.36] |
it’s not just a album |
| [04:09.47] |
It’s my life |
| [04:14.22] |
Amen |
