(Intro: Instrumental)
(A triumphant sound of trumpets and soft rolling drums, building into a joyful, rhythmic highlife beat)
(Verse 1)
In the city where the glory shines so bright,
A general stands, a beacon of the light.
From the foundations of City of Glory,
God wrote through you a beautiful story.
With a word of fire and a heart of gold,
You shepherd the flock, courageous and bold.
(Chorus)
Happy Birthday, Prophet Samuel,
The man of God, the General.
In the courts of heaven, your name is known,
By the seeds of prayer that you have sown.
Long life and strength, we pray for you,
As God performs his wonders anew!
(Verse 2)
Prophet to the nations, father to the lost,
You carry the mantle, no matter the cost.
City of Glory rises to sing,
Of the grace and the wisdom the Spirit brings.
May your oil never run dry or fail,
Against every storm, you shall prevail.
(Bridge)
(Slower, worshipful tone)
Grace, grace, multiplied grace,
As you seek the Master’s face.
From glory to glory, from height to height,
You walk in the power of His might.
(Chorus - Upbeat Finale)
Happy Birthday, Prophet Samuel,
Our General Overseer, the General.
In the courts of heaven, your name is known,
By the seeds of prayer that you have sown.
Long life and strength, we pray for you,
As God performs his wonders anew!

(Vibrant saxophone solo playing the main melody, fading out with joyful cheers and shouts of "Praise the Lord!")
