BLACK BIRD

Oh black bird, why can’t you fly?

All through life you’ve been fighting a war

Fell from your mama’s back at your tender age

Cruelly the world turns to you her back

Sorrow is your comfort, pain your companion

Beaten by hate, wings soaked with sadness

Life is deserted, you stood under the cloud without hope

Oh black bird, I wish you could come back home

Don’t despise the world, for there will always be a war

Under your wings, you can find comfort and strength

Can you think of the memories that make you smile?

Somewhere in your heart you can find love to survive

Please black bird; don’t throw away your heart

Life may try to tear your feeling apart

Spread your wings and let the wind take your hands

You are beautiful; don’t let the world make you think otherwise

Shed away the tears in your eyes

Just a little more sleep, you will be aright

No one knew life was going to be this bad

You've got to let go your burden for its going to be alright

JOY

Wish you all Merry Christmas

Joy cometh in the morning

And stays with the heart all day

It gives us the grace over life challenges

When our ship is going astray

Joy, whenever she finds you, never leaves

When trail and temptation comes, joy stands with you

The world may be broken, tears in your eyes

But with joy, brings sun shines in your life

So many homes are in pain and sorrow

Each day the world mourn over her love ones

But with joy, there is a reassurance and renew hope

Amid the storm, one can have a reason to be glad

When joy fills a heart troubled and burdened

Like a stream, peace and happiness flows within

It takes away all our worries

For joy cometh in the morning

It’s discouraging when you look at the world today

By and by, life beauty fading away

As you wish so much more to life for all

In the light on that heavily place is joy

A LIFE TIME

DEDICATED TO UNITED 95 AT HER ANNIVERSARY/RE-UNION PARTY 2015

We crawled, we learn to walk

We stood up tall and fall

Life so far ahead

But we held on head strong

We had a dream

We had a vision

We have a heart uncompromising

And a bond above the sky

Love and Unity

Embraced from the dept of our heart

As we sail through the sea of life against all odds

Sight set on the shore of our motherland

We sang a song of victory

Our spirit burning with passion and a goal

Someday our story told

As we stood a midst the storm in the sea

The sun rest each day on our shoulder

Though tomorrow maybe far away

It can never killed our zeal

As we journeyed beyond the stars

Arise and shine fellow brothers

Ye hold the future to our father land

As the father looks up to his son and hug him proudly

So shall we lift the glory of united christian secondary school
