I've been on a roll with creativity and the Holy Spirit. In wanting to glorify the name of the Father, here's another song (still in demo mode) I hope the faithful will want to sing at worship service. You will kindly forgive my 'amateurish' vocals
For me theme, texture and substance of a piece of music are the spirit in the music. We ought to get back to those roots so cliche is erased from our vocabulary
The melody goes as far back as 1982, the year I lost my Dad after a lengthy bout with cancer.
Lyrics
IN HIS OWN TIME
(Words & Music by JUN LATONIO)
IN…HIS…OWN…TIME…
CHORUS 1
I’ve been reborn in the spirit…Thru the sacrifice of the most holy Son.
I will sing praises in worship…To the Lord my God
Now and forevermore.
CHORUS 2
All of my life I have searched for…my salvation and now my eternal life.
Christ has died and now is risen…He will come again
To be the judge of mankind.
VERSE 1
How did I come to deserve such a gift from God.
IN…HIS…OWN…TIME…
He sent His Son to redeem all mankind from sin.
IN…HIS…OWN…TIME…
CHORUS 3
He set the rules for salvation…just believe in His Son who is Jesus Christ.
He was condemned by his people…To die for us
And He was crucified.
CHORUS 4
Let us give thanks to the Father…for His perfect love for all humanity.
Guidance from the Holy Spirit…Peace on Earth goodwill
Love and light to mankind.
VERSE 2
How did I come to deserve such a gift from God.
BLESSINGS WILL COME TO US IN HIS TIME
He sent His Son to redeem all mankind from sin.
BLESSINGS WILL COME TO US IN HIS TIME
SOLOIST CODA

Now and forevermore BLESSINGS WILL COME TO US IN HIS TIME
All of my life I have searched for BLESSINGS WILL COME TO US IN HIS TIME
My salvation my eternal life BLESSINGS WILL COME TO US IN HIS TIME
IN HIS OWN…TIME…
