(Hallelujah)
Even in the valley, we find our strength
(Yes Lord, thank You Jesus)
Ever since we lost our Daddy, the shadows grew so long
Everything felt heavy, where did we belong?
But You promised, Father, to the fatherless You stay
You gave us Mama Sabina Francis to lead us on the way
She’s the hand that holds us steady through the darkest night
Guiding all the children toward the morning light
We are one, together as one, the Akabueze kin
With the grace of God above us, let the healing now begin
Through the grief and through the sorrow, we will never stand apart
We are bound by love and mercy, one spirit, one heart
(Praise Him, yes we are one)
Ifeanyi Chukwu John, first son of Francis, stand your ground
You are the pillar of this house, let your strength be found
Monday Chetachi, our brother, you carry such a heavy load
But God will lift your shoulders on this long and winding road
Hygenus Chiboke, our brother, standing firm and true
And Sunday Junior, our last born, the blessing dwells in you
We are one, together as one, the Akabueze kin
With the grace of God above us, let the healing now begin
Through the grief and through the sorrow, we will never stand apart
We are bound by love and mercy, one spirit, one heart
(Glory, thank You Jesus)
Every hand, every heart, let us join together now
Underneath the shadow of His holy, sacred vow
Blood is blood, a bond that’s woven by the hand of grace
We will seek the comfort of His holy, quiet place
(Amen, Hallelujah)
We lean upon the promise that we are never left alone
With the memories of Francis, we build upon the stone
Support each other deeply, let the love be all we know
Watching as the seeds of peace begin to steadily grow
We are one, together as one, the Akabueze kin
With the grace of God above us, let the healing now begin
Through the grief and through the sorrow, we will never stand apart
We are bound by love and mercy, one spirit, one heart
We are one, Akabueze, standing in the light
Resting in His arms tonight
(Yes Lord)
Together as one, forevermore
Amen.
