ON ONE CONDITION

This song reminds me of what happens to most of us when asked to go do God's work. This could be true with AIIAS graduates.

Would you be willing to accept "menial" responsibilities when you're a PhD or a DMin graduate?
Would you be willing to go to the isolated islands in Indonesia, to minister to the indigeneous tribes?
Would you be willing to teach in a small unknown school, far away from the city?

These questions, among many, are questions that we should answer truthfully when we graduate from AIIAS and return to our respective countries.

Dear heavenly Father,
aren’t you glad to know that you can count on me
Wherever You lead me, I’ll serve you patiently
I’ll face any danger, hardships and pain
To answer the great commission
I gladly will suffer and never complain
But only on one condition

I’ll be happy to teach in Christian schools
When I get my PhD
And I’ll be happy to give a little time and pray’r
After I watch TV
And if you want me to sail across the ocean
and preach to all I see
I won’t hesitate to witness
on the beach at Boracay

Dear heavenly father
Aren’t you happy to have a dedicated Christian like me
Someone who’s willing to serve holding nothing back
One who lives unselfishly
And when it comes to giving everything to You
There ain’t no competition
I’ll put you first in everything I do
But only on one condition [unison]

I’ll be happy to go to mission fields
If you’re thinking about Alabang
And I’ll be happy to give my ten percent
When I pay off my house and things
And if you want me to be a good Samaritan
And give to every man
And I’ll be happy to love my neighbor
If he’s a AC Milan Fan!
