dedicating
a
song
to
you
[Verse 1] Brother
Emmanuel
Banda,
hear
the
sound
of
the
day
God
has
brought
you
back,
in
a
special
way
For
the
second
time,
you
oversee
Serenje
town
With
the
grace
of
the
Lord,
you
wear
the
golden
crown
It’
s
not
by
your
might,
it’
s
not
by
your
power
But
God’
s
own
will,
blessing
your
finest
hour
Oyiwa!
Walk
with
your
head
held
high
With
the
spirit
of
wisdom,
reaching
for
the
sky
[Chorus] Oh
Emmanuel
Banda,
you’
re
the
chosen
one
For
the
people
of
Serenje,
the
work
has
just
begun
Look
up
to
the
Heavens
for
the
wisdom
you
need
To
guide
every
soul,
to
plant
every
seed
Emmanuel
Banda,
oyiwa,
you
are
the
pride
With
God
as
your
compass,
you
have
nothing
to
hide
[Verse 2] Never
forget
those
who
stood
through
the
heat
Never
forget
those
who
stood
through
the
heat
From
the
campaign
trail
to
the
victory
in
the
street
When
duty
calls,
you
must
be
there
for
them
too
For
the
love
of
the
people
is
what
carries
you
through
Kanona,
Mupepetwe,
and
Muzamani
wait
They
need
your
helping
hand
to
seal
their
fate
Kabamba,
Nakalengula,
and
Chibuye
Saili
They
are
your
brothers,
your
sisters,
your
family
[Chorus] Oh
Emmanuel
Banda,
you’
re
the
chosen
one
For
the
people
of
Serenje,
the
work
has
just
begun
Look
up
to
the
Heavens
for
the
wisdom
you
need
To
guide
every
soul,
to
plant
every
seed
Emmanuel
Banda,

With

us
through
the
rain
[Verse 3] Remember

the
vision
bright
Leading
with
honour,
doing
what
is
right
Don't

where
you
came
from,
keep
your
heart
true
This
second
chance
is
a
blessing
meant
for
you
Emmanuel
Banda,
