James Attah Agamah Tribute

Today, 5th November 2011, marks Six Months of Baba's 5th May 2011 singular flight to Glory - borne on angels wings to Heaven - ahead of the rest of us, who one by one will take our flights in tow; according to God's will.

We, his biological children including our spouses indeed together with Ebiye - our mother - as well as each of our children who had known him; always fondly remember Baba and will not cease to thank God for Baba's exemplary life so well lived to the very end.

Our God, we thank you over and over again with every re-dedication of our lives to YOU today and always in remembrance of Baba until we meet in Heaven. Amen.

This morning, after my Quiet Time, as I write this, my thoughts go to our childhood family morning Devotion and I feel like singing some of the favourite songs - indeed the choruses that regularly featured, obviously the favourites of our parents, Baba and Ebiye - as any of them could raise the morning's song.

I list the 5 songs that readily come to my mind - all of course, in Igala language - beginning with the one we sang on 6th October 2011 together with Ebiye on the last day in Abuja during a period of stay with us before we set out on the return journey back to Idah:

1. Me jenyu Nw'Ojo Onwu denyo me (Praise God from whom all blessings flow).
2. I n'Odu omunen, ku ma du te nw'onen (There is no other Name ...given to men by whom to be saved except Jesus only).
3. Ojo Onwu ade mi .. (God is my Guardian ... )
4. Onwu ajadu tu'kpoji ( He saves to the end ..)
5. Ondu wa Jisos Onwu adabi wa (Our Lord Jesus Himself is surely coming back)

What a sure Legacy we have from Baba and Ebiye in our LORD Jesus.

We hold very dearly and please, Lord, keep us faithful to the very end. Amen.

May God help us all to keep the Faith and hold the fort till the glorious end. Amen.
