This song is inspired by author Tim Ballard's new book entitled "The COVENANT, LINCOLN and the WAR." I have been deeply touched and inspired by Tim (Who actually plays the Union Captain in the music video) and also by his book. Tim is on a mission to deliver a message that he believes will have a monumental impact on America's survival, and the world : God is the author of the United States' story — and the nation's future sustainability is predicated upon citizens' reliance upon Him.
This amazing song about Lincoln was written by a very talented soul by the name of Todd. D Reynolds (Who also plays the confederate Captain in the video), with a later adaptation by myself. The chorus is sung in yoruba (West African dialect) representing the cry of the african slaves, on the ships heading to America, and the verses are sung in english as told from the mouth of Lincoln who is praying desperately to his God for strength to follow through in his decision to fight for the freedom of blacks despite the possibility of death threats to his life and losing all his friends and peers. May we all be able to find in life something we are passionate about and stand up and defend it. Even if we stand alone.

LYRICS FOR "LINCOLN"
WHY IS IT ME THAT MUST, SUFFER THE PLEA?
FOR I ALONE, CANNOT SET THEM FREE
BUT CAN I FULFILL, GODS OWN WILL
EVEN IF MY PEOPLE, TURN ON ME
WHY MUST HE ASK THIS OF ME, EVERYTHING?
JUST TO HEAR FREEDOM RING
JUST TO SEE A FLAG UNFURLED
JUST TO HEAR FREEDOM RING
CHORUS
ERU OLORUN BA MI
CO SENI TO LE DA DURO
NOW IS THE HOUR I QUESTION HIS POWER
CAN HE MAKE THESE MEN, UNDERSTAND?
THAT ALL OF OUR TEARS, AND THESE HEART WRENCHING YEARS
WAS THE PRICE WE PAID, FOR MAN
WHY MUST HE ASK THIS OF ME, EVERYTHING?
JUST TO HEAR FREEDOM RING?
JUST TO SEE THAT FLAG UNFURLED YEAH
JUST TO HEAR FREEDOM RING
CHORUS
NOW WITH THIS BOOK IN MY HANDS, I CAN SEE
EVERYTHING
