(Soft talking drum melody)
Mama, this one is for you
My beautiful mother, the queen of our hearts
Nwatoka, you carry grace like a crown
Nine children standing tall today
Because you held the fire in the rain
Through the storm of twenty-twenty-three
You stood like a mountain, you never did retreat
Mrs. Goodness Ujunwa, the name says it all
You answered every duty, you answered every call
You taught us to seek Jehovah in the light and the dark
And in our spirits, you left a holy mark
Oh, Nwatoka, mother of the brave
You are the strength that the heavens gave
Even when the world felt cold and grey
You pointed us to Jehovah, you led the way
Faithful and strong, steady and true
Mama, we are blessed to be a part of you
I see your face, I see the peace inside
With Jehovah as your shepherd, you have nothing to hide
Though the road is lonely, you walk with such grace
I see the light of the Father shine upon your face
Nine of us gathered, one heart and one soul
Because you taught us love, you made us feel whole
(Ad-lib: We love you, Mama)
Oh, Nwatoka, mother of the brave
You are the strength that the heavens gave
Even when the world felt cold and grey
You pointed us to Jehovah, you led the way
Faithful and strong, steady and true
Mama, we are blessed to be a part of you
Twenty-twenty-three took a piece of the sun
But you kept on shining, the battle is won
You are the pillar, the rock, and the vine
May Jehovah keep you, Mama, until the end of time
(Soft shekere fading)
Nwatoka, our mother
Goodness, our queen
We stand with you, always
Jehovah be praised for your life
We love you, Mama
