May Nine Nineteen Eighty

May nine nineteen eighty was great, Being the day of his calling; Brother Eduardo Manalo Had received the noblest blessing. The day of his ordination Signaled his rise in his duty; His exceptional performance Was seen inside the ministry. He became an assistant dean For Evangelical Studies; Doing all his divine functions, And his responsibilities. On twenty-seventh of July, In the year nineteen eighty-four; He became Metro Manila's Another coordinator. Then came the Church's eightieth year, He took his oath as Deputy; To help the Administrator In leading the flock's entirety. He‘s prepared for fifteen years by Then Executive Minister; The torch was passed to him by God, After the death of his father. He firmly strengthened the brethren Who, just like him, were in sorrow With the demise of Ka Erdy, As his deep love did overflow. He showed courage and consistence, In the midst of persecution; Sacrificing his interest, He valiantly made decision. Through the modern technology, He officiates worship service; The brethren all over the world Are truly edified in bliss. The true message of salvation Has reached all but one continent; He preaches the genuine gospel With power and noble intent. He has successfully finished The great Philippine Arena; The project has been constructed At the Ciudad De Victoria. Excellent events of the Church Have caught the Guinness' attention; The world records have been broken, Bringing honor to God's nation. Thousands of houses of worship Have been built amid poverty; The work of the Lord's mighty hand Is witnessed in every country. When the calamities happen, He immediately provides aid; Relief, rescue, and assistance Have been well organized and made. Preachers of other religions Have come to know the righteous way; Pastors and priests have joined the Church, Without a doubt, without delay. The covid-nineteen pandemic Has not deterred God's people; Every household worship service Feeds each servant's mind, heart, and soul. Forty years have quickly passed by, Since he's blessed by the Almighty; We will never forget the date, Early May nine nineteen eighty. Topic: 40th Anniversary of Bro. EVM's Ordination (May 09,2020)
