Lyrics

This song is dedicated to the entire former staff who worked at Nigeria Airways that was closed down in year 2004. Since then, many have died but to everyone of you that is alive today through the mercy of God, I pray for you, let every battle in your life come to an end now in Jesus name. Let there be no more sickness or untimely death amongst you. May the good Lord bless you and cause the light of his face to shine upon you. Amen

1.
In the year 2004
Your hope and expectations were dashed to pieces
By the sudden closure of the source of your livelihood
You were thrown out uncelebrated and without pity
You were thrown out and denied the wages of your labour past
But God looked down from heaven and laughed
And appointed three Captains to take you to your Promised Land
The first Captain was late former President Musa Yar'Adua
The second Captain was former President Muhammad Buhari
And the third Captain is President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, assisted by the Minister of Aviation, Honorable Festus Egwarewa Keyamo
Let angels of God join us praise the Lord

Chorus:
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord oh my soul
And all that is within me
Praise His holy name

2.
The battle had taken two lives of our leaders
The first was late Comrade Engineer Animashaun,
The second was late Comrade Sam Nzene
May their beautiful souls rest in peace. Amen
What a battle! What a fight O Lord
But God had a plan
He raised successors to continue the fight
And to take us to the promised Land
In the place of late Comrade Engineer Animashaun, God raised Captain Shuaibu Alfa
And in the place of Comrade Sam Nzene, God raised Comrade Segun Adeleke.
He united the hearts of all the executive members of the union as one to fight the battle to the end
Let angels of God join us praise the Lord

Chorus:
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord oh my soul
And all that is within me
Praise His holy name

3.
Who can say no when God says yes
Who can put down when God lifts up
Who can shut the door when God opens the door
God is mighty in power, who can stand against Him
God is King of kings, He rules over all the kings of the earth.
The kings of the earth are but mere tools in His hand
The Lord God is greater than the greatest, He does whatever pleases Him
Let angels of God join us to praise the Lord

Chorus:
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord oh my soul
And all that is within me
Praise His holy name

4.
Is there any other challenge?
Have faith in God
Is there anybody that is far away from God?
See His wondrous work for you and draw near to Him
Why is he doing all these things for you?
It is that through these things He might show you how much he loves you
For you to believe in Jesus and be saved
Greater things will he do for you if you believe in Jesus Christ today
While God is waiting for you to respond
Let angels of God join us to praise the Lord

Chorus:
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord oh my soul
And all that is within me
Praise His holy name
