When all I see at dawn is darkness(because NEPA has cut power as
usual)and I need to light my candle like the days,

I choose to stand in faith

When I wonder where to go to look for job,having been rejected in
atleast a thousand places

I choose to stand in faith.

When the wife burst into tears because we just ate the last meal
and it appears we have to seek the benevolence of family and fr-
iends again

I choose to stand in faith.

When the children fall sick and the agbo(herbs) appears to be gett-
ineffective,

I choose to stand in faith.

When I attend church on sunday and I see the offering basket bei-
ng passed and everybody contributing their big money and I can on-
ly put in my two copper coins

I choose to stand in faith.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of invisible
things

I am standing in faith.
