CHUKWU GOZIE NDI NNA by Sir Jude Nnam & Fr. Chinenye Oluoma — Lyrics
About CHUKWU GOZIE NDI NNA
"Chukwu Gozie Ndi Nna" is a joyful and deeply affectionate prayer for fathers, composed specifically for Father's Day celebrations. In Nigerian parishes, the Sunday honoring fathers is always a vibrant occasion, and this piece captures the gratitude congregations feel for the men who guide and provide for their families. The title translates to a direct plea: God, bless our fathers.
The lyrics are full of warmth and recognition. The choir sings of the heavy responsibilities fathers carry, calling them "Odogwu" (great men) who step up when things get tough. In the second verse, the melody shifts into a heartfelt prayer, asking God to grant them strong health, long life, and wisdom for the journey.
What makes this song especially delightful to sing is the third verse. It playfully but sincerely lists all the wonderful gifts we wish we could shower upon our fathers to show our appreciation—beautiful clothes, shoes, a house, a car, and the finest drinks. It is a lively, spirited anthem that brings smiles to the congregation and makes the fathers in the pews feel truly honored.
