I BELIEVE IN NIGERIA ~ THE SCENT OF WATER WE SEEK

I wake up everyday to the pains of my people

Faces looking up to her government 

Long abandoned in the quest for a better day

A look at the leadership of this nation 

Is disheartening 

Brings one to tears

But there is hope for The nation called Nigeria

I believe in Nigeria

Scattered all across the nation 

Are dilapidated health facilities

Abandoned by her government 

Mothers die avoidable deaths giving birth to children 

From the first breathe, children are motherless

What cruelty 

But there is hope for the nation called Nigeria 

I believe in Nigeria 

We boast of the richest man in Africa 

Or should I say, the richest Blackman 

Yet we are a poor country 

We are rich in crude 

Abundant in other natural resources 

Yet my people are poor 

But there is hope for the nation called Nigeria

I believe in Nigeria

“For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, 

that the tender branch thereof will not cease. 

Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground; 

Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.”

Job 14:7-9 KJV

But there is hope for the nation called Nigeria

I believe in Nigeria

For Nigeria, my nation is daily cut down 

Where is this scent of water 

Or who are this scent of water ?

Jesus said, “He that believeth on me, 

as the scripture hath said, 

out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”

John 7:38 KJV

But there is hope for the nation called Nigeria

I believe in Nigeria

You are the scent of water Nigeria seeks

Everyone that believes in Christ 

Out of your belly flows this needed water

Let your water flow, Nigeria can bud again 

Look not on the government 

Take responsibility, let your water give life to us

But there is hope for the nation called Nigeria

I believe in Nigeria

And saviours shall come up on mount Zion

We are the saviours Nigeria seek 

Believers rise up

Obadiah 1:21 KJV

For we  are builders of the old wastes, 

Raisers of the former desolations,

Repairers of the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.”

Isaiah 61:4 KJV

But there is hope for the nation called Nigeria

I belie

Child of God, filled with the Holy Spirit 

Catch a vision for this nation 

Run with it

One day at a time 

Transform one man at a time 

Transform Nigeria 

GO ACHIEVE
