by Edith Ojonumi Sani

When the days are happy
And pleasant things are falling in place; pray

When the night seems gloomy
With unending hours of unhappiness; pray

When the land seems parched
And hunger hovers around; pray

When life is in danger
And the road seems endless; pray

In good and bad days
In happiness and in sorrow
In sickness and in health
In life and at the hour of death; pray
