Lyrics
Aka Aka Ya
Aka Jehovah na’eme mma
Olu ebube ya
Nke na eruari na’ebem no
Isi iyi nke ndu
Nke na dighi ata’ta
Aka aka ya
Aka Jehovah na’eme mma

The Interpretation
The arm of the Lord
The arm of the Lord does great things
The display of His splendor
I see all around me
The stream of life
That never runs dry
The arm of the Lord
The arm of His strength does great thing.
