(Ayy, yoh!)
From the dust, he picked me up
Chukwu, I am nothing without you
Na you do am, oh Lord
Listen now 02zm 02zm
I look back at the road I walked
The hunger and the cold I felt
I was nobody in the middle of the street
Just a lonely heart looking for a seat
But you saw me when the world looked away
You turned my night into a brand new day
I had nothing, I was empty inside
Now I’m walking with you, I’m feeling the pride
Lord, you made me somebody, yeah
From the ground, you raised my head high
I don’t know how to thank you, Lord
For the grace that you keep in your word
You made me somebody, you changed my name
I will never ever be the same
Chukwu, I give you the praise today
You are God, and you show me the way
People said I wouldn't make it, no
They said I had nowhere left to go
But your hand was heavy on my life
You cut through the doubt like a sharp knife
Now I’m standing here, I’m a testimony
Of the love that you poured upon me
Natotela, Lord, for the blessings you send
You are my father and you are my friend
Lord, you made me somebody, yeah
From the ground, you raised my head high
I don’t know how to thank you, Lord
For the grace that you keep in your word
You made me somebody, you changed my name
I will never ever be the same
Chukwu, I give you the praise today
You are God, and you show me the way
(Ayy, yoh!)
I was nothing, now I’m something
You’re the king of everything
Rise up, my soul, and testify
God is good, he will never lie
From the copper belt to the mountain top
Your blessing for me, it will never stop
Lord, you made me somebody, yeah
From the ground, you raised my head high
I don’t know how to thank you, Lord
For the grace that you keep in your word
You made me somebody, you changed my name
I will never ever be the same
Chukwu, I give you the praise today
You are God, and you show me the way
I just give praise to you
You are God, forever
Nobody like you, Lord
Chukwu, natotela, yeah
(Ayy, yoh!)
Forever, amen.
