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

LOVE AND UNITY




Arise ye student of United 95
Taught by the best of teachers
With pride, we wore our blue and white strip
With love, and made our mother proud

Heroes rise and fall
But with education, courage, dignity and love
We prospered where others failed
And yielded to a brother's call

Never did we allow faith withered
We build a bond and wrote a will in our heart
That someday if the world is unsatisfied
We will have a reason to smile in our heart

Today, we walk the street with dignity
We are kings and queens, the world tells our story
A story written on the walls of our heart in black and white
For we came, we fought and we conquered

United 95, Love and Unity

ANGEL

(A Poem Inspired by
 Ankur Masih..... a Gospel Song Writer and Musician




I didn't grow up in the city
I was a little girl in love with the morning and stars
I used to read storybooks about angels
Never thought I would someday hear an angel sing

I was playing by the lawn at our backyard
I heard a voice so sweet, it made heaven fell on my feet
It felt like God came to visit us
So I ran my heart's out to catch a glimpse

Noticed mama was alone in the living room
Rocking her favorite chair, In front of her was a TV
Curious, I knew I heard a voice, unique but rare
It wasn't my birthday and Christmas is so far afar

Dad isn't around, and my best friend is out of town
I was so eager to figure out who it was
So I slipped in behind mama, my eyes caught something
I noticed a man gorgeously dress smiling back at me

It's like he knew I was coming as he sang one of my favorite song
In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my strength, my life, my song
As the words sink deep into my heart, mama gave me a grin
Said child, I feel in love the first time I heard him sing
