Long Live Nigeria

We have toiled for long Our forefathers have trend the path And made their mark And the rest is history We have had our share of sorrows We have had our share of victories Battles we won, battles we lost But amidst all these All we see ahead is our bright future Although our dreams may be over shadowed by the wars we are still battling within Our hopes may be limping by indecisions Our stability may be wavering But we aren't giving up! And definitely, we aren't bowing out! Truly, Nigeria has had her own share of war We aren't retreating! And we surely aren't going to surrender! And with every painful but purposeful step We are claiming our position back as the giant of Africa! Nigeria is beautiful and her people, her glory Maybe slowly, but definitely, God will heal our land GOD BLESS NIGERIA GOD BLESS AFRICA GOD BLESS THE WORLD.
