A soft cry breaks the silence of the hills, A child is born in the fresh morning peace, He kicks his tiny feet, oh so full of life, He’s oblivious of his parents’ daily strife The father hurries home, his eyes wet, Envisioning the angel he hasn’t met yet, His pace quickens as he nears … Continue reading A Child is Born in Africa

In perfect rhythm we step to the beat, The melodious tune synching our feet, Our hands and hearts forever interlocked, As the lyrics leave our feelings interlaced, Each word is a divine and eternal promise, There’s never been a greater joy than this, A celebration of love formed in Christ, A love perfected in reverence … Continue reading Everlasting Lovesong

A Christian you’ve called me to be\ This is what you require of me\ To open my eyes n see\ With your word agree\ From the devil to flee\ And from sin be free\ Yes Lord I have your salvation\ You’ve helped my situation\ You seek my submission\ You’ve answered my every question\ And set … Continue reading Empty Hands

New places, races n faces/ How inevitable change seems/ New cultures, greetings n embraces/ Where does my heart even begin? / I listen to their unfamiliar laughs/ And stare at their suspicious smiles/ My heart on guard/ My spirit not at ease/ Will I ever find peace?/ People never change in a day/ It takes … Continue reading Diaspora

Its cold; pitch dark outside/ Pain on every side/ Corruption countrywide/ The sin…. worldwide/ I try to look aside/ Ignoring the pain inside/ Ignoring His voice/ He longs for my embrace/ But His name I deface/ For my sins, I have no defense/ I choose to sit on the fence/ Afraid to make a choice/ … Continue reading Christmas in My Heart

They laugh with you and even cry with you, They show you just what it means to be true, Always there to wipe the tears from your face, Always ready to provide a warm embrace, Every night just before I sink into my bed, I always know I’ll receive a call from a friend, And … Continue reading Friends

If I had my childhood to relive all over again, I would build friendships first, And learn to acquire the wealth last. I would paint my fingers more, And learn to point the finger less. I would aim to do less correcting And learn to do more connecting. I would take my eyes off my … Continue reading Back to Basics

Stepping onto the balcony of your house, Not ready for what the sight will arouse, The sun breaking the grey of the horizon, A spectacular sight, inspiring your vision Clearing your eyes of the parting dreams, Who knows what lies in the morning beams? The sound of the chirping birds distracts you, A prelude to … Continue reading Look on The Bright Side

You had fun and laughed together, They hang around you like a tether, Buddies, pals; is what you called them, Riding life behind you like a tandem, The late-night calls and endless pagers, Only yesterday you were teenagers, Riding bikes and stealing pecks and kisses, Just young kids minding their business, The cheeky giggles still … Continue reading The Unlikely Call

It’s half past midnight when I spring to life, Interrupting a night full of sleepless strife, An escape from my nightmares is what I seek, Coz each breath just leaves my spirit weak, The day has been hectic and the hours long, I should be in dreamland where I belong, But sleep seems to escape … Continue reading Say A Prayer

My heart is a tonne heavy and burdened, My mind more confused and churned, That a virgin is suddenly with child? Is not a thought to be held so mild. Yet the maze gets even more complex, As the notion further continues to vex, That a king is soon to be born? Who will pluck … Continue reading The Wise Men (Christmas)

It’s a cry of every nation, And we’re seeking salvation Overcoming damnation Coz we’re a dying generation With one vision, a mission, Heaven is our destination The battle is on now, The devil has been shown, The door, he’s disowned But my heart beats a sad song Nothing close to hillsong For each day that … Continue reading Quiet Desperation

With the world falling all around me, And violence clouding all I can see, Where can I find time to even smile? The pain seems to soar with every mile The baby is screaming with hunger, Oblivious of the surrounding danger, How can I sing a sweet soothing lullaby? How can I muffle the chaos … Continue reading Praise Him in the Storm

I was born innocent; shield me, From the trap of endless corruption, From senseless and vain destruction, Please do not tarnish my perception, I was born blind; guide me, To attain my lifelong mission, To make every wise decision, Please don’t corrupt my vision, I was born weak; protect me, Help me keep my every … Continue reading Kenya, My Child

Broken heart, shattered dreams, tainted vision. This threefold list is a famous tear-jerker. It's siblings include the famous "dis" pair; namely disappointment and discouragement. You know what I am talking about. Actually, your heart knows better. You've heard enough of them to know that hurting words don't break ear-drums, they break hearts. You've read enough … Continue reading Our De Fault Mode
