After the success of the great event A Song of Praise Music Festival this recently 2012, people are still reminiscing the happening that night. One of the song repeatedly sing by the crowd is the composition of Mr. Rommel Arguelles, interpreted by Mr. Gian Magdangal, "REASONS TO BELIEVE". This entry won 1st runner up and also the heart of the listeners. This kind of music will for surely call the attention of someone who hear this and will make you realize the essence of praising God. The song is very solemn and the beauty of it's melody was being triggered by the beautiful voice of it's interpreter Mr. Gian Magdangal. His voice unsealed the hidden mildness of the song, unleashed the greatness of it's melody, and revealed the happiness of praising God.
It's such a wonderful composition reverberating to my ears and stuck deeply to my heart. It nurtures the soul of the listener to lead in praising the God, persuading others to compose more beautiful A Song of Praise. Although all finalist in this contest are also talk of the crowd and continually playing to our ears, it's different and hard to forget because once you sing or play this song, you'll encounter last song syndrome in praising God.
It is better to listen in this kind of song because first of all, it's enjoy to give praise to God; it gives hope to those who are weak and can make them feel better in times of hard. In times we feel like we are hopeless, let us all together listen to the hymn of this wonderful song.
