2015: We Are Survivors
2015: WE ARE SURVIVORS
Enemies thought 2015 won’t be our YEAR
They opined that our progress won’t be NEAR
They said among our peers, we would be REAR
Maliciously they instilled in us a kind of FEAR
Even our goodwill and image, enemies did SMEAR
But our God was awesome and brought us CLEAR
In January, enemies waged war against our HEALTH
In June, they now came and attacked our WEALTH
We heard the evil ones have a COMMONWEALTH
They waged the war, unknown to us, in STEALTH
The evil people hid their drawn swords in SHEATH
But Our God did not allow us lose our BREATH
On this last day, we have shown we are SURVIVORS
The holy book says “we are more than CONQUERORS”
In the new year 2016, we shall continue to be VICTORS
To our foes and wailers, we shall be their RAPTORS
The anointing for breakthrough shall, in us, ABIDE
In the presence of the most High, we shall RESIDE
