(Chanting) Ndi Ogbe, rise up
From dust we come, to dust we return
But today we walk in the light of the Lord
Halleluyah!
We gather here as one body, one mind
Working for the community, leaving stress behind
From the street corner to the marketplace lane
We are building the vision, breaking every chain
It’s a service of love, it’s a sacrifice of soul
With the spirit of the Father, we are finally whole
No matter where we start, no matter where we go
The grace of the Almighty is the only way we know
Ndi Ogbe, sing for the King of Glory
Ndi Ogbe, we tell a brand new story
From dust we come, to dust we will return
But the fire in our hearts will forever burn
Oh, we praise the Lord, we praise Him loud
With the strength of the community, we stand proud
Yeah, we praise the Lord, we praise Him loud
Ndi Ogbe standing out in the crowd
We look at the work that our hands have done
Under the light of the morning sun
It is not by our power, it is not by our might
But the Spirit of God guiding us into the light
When the road gets tough and the shadows appear
We hold on to the promise, we conquer the fear
For the life that we live is a gift from above
United in purpose, united in love
Ndi Ogbe, sing for the King of Glory
Ndi Ogbe, we tell a brand new story
From dust we come, to dust we will return
But the fire in our hearts will forever burn
Oh, we praise the Lord, we praise Him loud
With the strength of the community, we stand proud
Yeah, we praise the Lord, we praise Him loud
Ndi Ogbe standing out in the crowd
(Chanting) We rise, we rise
Look at the heavens, lift up your eyes
(Glory!) We serve, we serve
Giving our best with every nerve
(Amen!) From the dust to the stars
Healing the spirit, healing the scars
So let the drums beat, let the trumpet sound
Let the joy of the Lord be spread all around
For every neighbor, for every friend
We keep on pushing until the very end
It is simple and pure, the gospel we bring
To the heart of the people, let the melody ring
We are Ndi Ogbe, moving forward today
Walking in faith all the way
Ndi Ogbe, sing for the King of Glory
Ndi Ogbe, we tell a brand new story
From dust we come, to dust we will return
But the fire in our hearts will forever burn
Oh, we praise the Lord, we praise Him loud
With the strength of the community, we stand proud
Yeah, we praise the Lord, we praise Him loud
Ndi Ogbe standing out in the crowd
Ndi Ogbe, rise up, rise up
From the dust we stand tall
To the Lord we give it all
Glory to the highest, Halleluyah!
(Fades out with joyful chants)
