It was cultural festival in my
Country and the minister for culture said
Bring me the regae gospel man,
And there was a journalist who said what do we want with the gospel?
Give us the juju and the masquerade it is
Cultural festival, nothing to do with the gospel
But I turned and and said to him
Christianity may not be a part of our
Ancient history but it's certainly our culture.
For long time we've been with Jesus Christianity has become
A culture Isaac, Abraham and Joshua they are the ancestors now
My generation never see a juju priest
Except in a home video
Long time we've been with Jesus
Grandmama was a chorister and great grandmama's a deaconess
Cari onye obula
Cari onye obula
Onye mé ca nde onru beke ne ri ikpe nowa nowa
Ou ne nye, ou ne nye, ou ne nye
Kele ya chukwu ne nye
Cari onye obula
And when you think about it you will
Remember songs that your grandmama taught you
So you long time we've been with
Jesus and by the way this is one of them
A song my grandmama taught me
Ah... Chukwu ne nye
Cari onye obula
Chukwu ne nye
Cari onye obula
Ah...
Onye mé ca nde onru beke ne ri ikpe nowa nowa
Ou ne nye, ou ne nye, ou ne nye

Onye mé ca nde onru beke ne ri ikpe nowa nowa
Ou ne nye, ou ne nye, ou ne nye
Kele ya Kele ya

Onye mé ca nde onru beke ne ri ikpe nowa nowa

Onye mé ca nde onru beke ne ri ikpe nowa nowa

Let the blood of Jesus shed on Calvary
More than enough for me
Don't know juju man neither no fetish priest
Oh mama mae mama ma... ma
Cari onye obula

Onye mé ca nde onru beke ne ri ikpe nowa nowa
Ou ne nye ou ne nye ou ne nye
