A new month, a new beginning

Don’t be caught in any of life’s slumber

Be awakened, be winning

Stay woke,

Then only will it become a year for you to remember.

Boluwatife Adeyiga Ositelu (Bowlu)


We arise from our beds everyday when we go to sleep,

Like it’s our tomb stone for the walking dead.

But we are resurrected by divine grace,

Grace that was gifted to us through his death,

Making us to be awake on this earth.

Omotayo Tantolorun David (TantoGod)


Down in this valley, we tarry

Waiting for a day to glory

Though we are weak and down

Of yesterday’s defeat

But today we mount up with wings like eagles.

Mercy Onyejegbu


Just like the wind blows,

I felt the spirit move,

Dead I was,

A hive I am filled with life,

‘Cause Christ in me the hope of glory.

Melody Lawal (Lemody)


I try to blink my eyelids

The ticklish feeling made me shackle.

I was drawn into my streamline of thoughts again

Awake in His splendor and glory.

And lost and dead.

Favour Oluwagbohun (ElizFav)


After so much work,

Rest should follow, then it extended.

Opportunities smiled at me but I couldn’t embrace it,

Coziness and pleasure didn’t

Awake and take back what is yours because it’s a new beginning.

Ibiremilekun Ibikunle (ROAI)


My baby played the whole day

And when night came, she slept

And when morning came, we waited

We waited patiently for her wake

And lo!!!! by 7:05 am, She came awake.

Victor Onyekonwea (Vic Da Truth)
