UBA MUN GODE

"Uba Mun Gode" (Father We Thank You) is a spirited Hausa thanksgiving hymn composed by Iliya Godiya Dinas. The song is a profound expression of gratitude to God for His unfailing guidance, grace, and protection. It reflects on the journey of faith, acknowledging the years spent in the "gospel campaign" and the joy of seeing believers walk steadily in the light of Christ.

The verses carry a powerful narrative of perseverance, recalling how the faithful have weathered literal and figurative storms—rain and bad weather—without growing tired of serving the Lord. It culminates in a stirring coda where the choir declares themselves "soldiers of Jesus," recognizing that their growth and success come not from their own strength or ability, but entirely from the grace of God.

With its rhythmic drive and triumphant message, this piece is wonderfully suited for Thanksgiving services, anniversaries, or as a Recessional hymn. It resonates deeply with congregations, reminding every singer and listener that every milestone reached comes entirely from God's enduring faithfulness.
