PAGHAHANDOG (a Hangad cover)

I remember walking right outside the philosophy department from the Humanities Building of Ateneo de Manila after a long day of teaching. I was on my way to Cervini pool for a dip, but I had to stop by the pathway, because I heard this song being played by no other than Rene San Andres. I did not know that he was the one who wrote this at the time, but i was so mesmerized by the way he was singing it. Beside him was another guy, playing the flute. It was such a gift to be able to watch it, I remember going to the pool with a grateful heart.

The message of this song is absolutely beautiful. Thanks, Rene, for sharing it to the Church and to the world. By doing that, you embody the very message that this song is saying to me. God bless our liturgical musicians in the Church, and all those that share their gifts to build God's Kingdom here on earth.




This cover is the simplified version, transposed to the key of E. Below is the actual lyrics and chords. I think I got some lyrics wrong, but I hope the message isn't lost. Enjoy.
