People here just come and go
Take a dip, an hour or two;

Make their days as good as new.

Hanging rice and seafood, too,
Love to eat dem barbeque -
Happy faces, smiling, too!

Caingget sunset
I’d like to be the man I’d be!
Caingget sunset
I’d like to know what’s there to do!

I can’t believe these things are true!
Caingget sunset
I wanna go, I wanna go!
Caingget sunset
Caingget sunset
I wanna go!

Music, singing, guitars, too!
Noises everywhere you go;

Nothing matters, just be you!

Used to dive here years ago
Scream and shout, at night time, too!
Learned to sing a note or two.
Wet and wild, and naked, too!

So You Think I'm Crazy
(Tribute to I.H.M.S.)
Words and music by J. Roel Lungay
Performed by Steve Thomas
1
Well I've been here all my life
Searchin' for someone
Here in this lonesome place
Can I find my happiness
I've long waited for?
2
Y'all are asking me,
"What the hell you're doing?"
Y'all think it's nothing.
But I'll tell you something,
I'm looking for my heaven.
Chorus:
[So/Do] ya think I'm crazy, don't you?
Can't you see?
I've been here searchin' for myself for many years.
Only you don't see meaning to all that I'm doing
And all I believe in.
You see?
3
Well I've been here for something
Coz of someone
Who I don't know much
But it's Him that I'm living for.
4
I'm giving all my life
For His desire;
The life now I'm in
That I know is worth living.

We Fell In Love
Words by Mary Helen Mares
Music by J. Roel Lungay
Performed by Steve Thomas
Piano by Catherine Styron
Mastered by Roy Tutor
1
I looked her in the eyes many years ago
Took a deep breath to help me say hello
She was such a beauty and new to town
I said I'd be happy to show her all around.
2
I took her to my world few had ever known
Said a prayer to God she'd feel right at home
There's never been another since the day I saw her face
No one could compare to her beauty, charm and grace.
Refrain:
We fell in love, we said, "I do."
But little did we know she would end
What I started many years ago.
3
Time changes all of us but it took me by surprise
To see one day a change of heart showing in her eyes
Maybe too much happened during all the years
Or maybe not enough brought about her tears.
(Repeat Refrain)
Bridge:
Now it's many years later
And as she looks me in the eye
She takes a deep breath
To help her say goodbye.
(Ad lib)
(Repeat Refrain except last line)

Who Is Fro?
Words by Barbara Henry
Music by J. Roel Lungay
Performed by Rebecca Freeman
Piano by Catherine Styron-Marx
Guitars by Steve Thomas
Mastered by Roy Tutor
1
A father and a brother, a good friend to us all
He knows just when to be there
And catch us when we fall.
His heart is big and broken
It catches all our grief.
But when he lets us get it all out
It surely is a relief.
Chorus:
Who is Fro?
Who is Fro?
Who is Fro?
A father and a brother
And a friend.
2
His heart is filled with patience,
His heart is full of love.
We know that he was sent here
From heaven up above (char!).
We prayed so hard before he came,
We trusted and we waited.
We knew that God our Father
Would send to us his best.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Ad lib)
3
God did promise to care for all of us
And send us His very own.
We know that he was hand-picked
To gently lead us home.
And so we thank our God for him
With love and gratitude
Coz we believe our Father knows best
If only we accept.
(Repeat Chorus)
Coda:
A father and a brother and a friend!

Working Man
Words by J. Roel Lungay
Music by Romeo C. Mascariñas
Performed by Romeo Mascariñas
Mastered by Roy Tutor
1
Monday to Friday I’m always away
Getting up early and I’m on my way
Driving to my job for fifty dollars a day
I ain’t complaining I’m a working man.
When you’re a working man
You’re always on the run
When schedules are behind
You’re catching all the time.
When you’re a working man
Under the heat of a gun
You ain’t got life
Got nothing much of a chance.
Chorus:
Yes, I’m a working man,
I’m a working man.
I leave a lot behind, sometimes pretend I’m blind.
Yes, I’m a working man,
I’m a working man.
A working man is hardly home, he barely eats at all
O yeah, the working man
A good working man is a hell of a man!
2
Night time on Friday I go for a beer
Going home late when ready to sleep
Missus always ask me where the hell have I been
“Hey! wait a minute, I’m a working man!”
Ad Lib
When you’re a working man
Under the heat of the sun
You’ve got no chance
They call you ‘son of a gun.’
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
Saturday and Sunday, at home on these days
Keeping missus happy, eating honey all day
Church on Sunday, doing laundry, watching TV, oh yeah
There ain’t no stopping I’m a working man!
Coda:
Yes, I’m a working man,
I’m a working man.
I do a lot, you know, sometimes pretend I’m done.
When you’re a working man,
Always a working man.
A working man is sometimes home, he gets to do it all
O yeah, the working man
A good working man quite a hell of a man, yeah!

We will now receive the pledge
Of eternal redemption
For it will help us now
And in the life to come.
The Body and Blood of Christ

By this life-giving mystery;
Food and drink that are heavenly
Turned into Blood and Body;
We'll joyfully receive Thee
As a lasting memory, O Lord.

Let this holy sacrament inspire us

Away From Everything
Words by J. Roel Lungay
Music by Romeo C. Mascariñas
Performed by Romeo Mascariñas
1
Have this feeling things are simply not the same
Inside me it’s a whirl
At times I can’t explain.
Love to think that things are getting better.
I need to disappear
Away from everything.
2
The way I look at you like never been before
Won’t ever really change
Oh that I promise you
Somehow I need to know if I can grow
I need to be away
Away from everything.
Refrain:
Simple relocation -
I need to be away
Deep mind meditation -
I need to be away
Mental relaxation -
I need to be away
Away from everything.
(Interlude)
Bridge:
Have to find myself inside my head
I simply need to change the way I think
I try to close my eyes
Embrace the dark within
And just be far away from here.
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat 2)
(Repeat Refrain)
Coda:
Please take away, hmmm
Away from everything.

Words and music by J. Roel Lungay
Performed by Romeo Mascarinas

I write this song for you to know I care
It’s simple but it’s heart’ly dedicated
To both of you, you know
I’ll sing it even though the night is cold.
2
I want you sing this song and follow me
Up where the moon and stars, and midnight dream
You swear you’ll be good girls
And keep as secrets all that I have shared.
Chorus:
La la la la…
La la la la…
La la la la…
La la la la la la.

Hello, Rian, you’re one
Marikit, you, too, I have to warn
This song is simple but it’s “hit & run”
You’ve got to tell no one I am the man.
Bridge:
I know it isn’t easy to make some fun
The more it isn’t easy to be a nun
Somehow, somewhere or when
Just sing it “sprinkling can.”
Don’t criticize what you don’t understand.

4
I do write songs coz I’m a lonely man
Do write me letters if you understand
For you to know I’m one
Who always place myself at your command.
