These hymns really bring back some good memories.

I was blessed to be born into a CAC family where every single day, the bell (agogo igbala) would ring and we all MUST ASSEMBLE to the living room where Bibles and HYMNBOOKS were neatly stacked on the shelves. my Father made sure everyone of the family had at least a Bible and a hymnbook... these hymns where a major part of the family devotion.

We would sing from the hymnbook with a LOUD VOICE. yes...IT WAS IMPORTANT... VERY IMPORTANT

All these hymns became part of me and my siblings while growing up...and it's impact is still with us till today.

Proverbs 22:6 says 'Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.'

Thank you Dad and mum (keep resting in the Lord...I miss you) for the priceless gift of training us in the way of the Lord.
