INFORMATION ABOUT DESTINED KIDS
"Destined Kids" is group of six siblings who sing Gospel music. The Onitsha, Nigeria based group is also known as "Destiny Kids".

According to http://www.nairaland.com/253368/fans-onitsha-based-destined-kids-lets, the father of the group Deacon Stephen Iwueze, is "the composer of all the songs of the Destiny Kids". That 2009 blog post also identified then 13 year old Rejoice Iwueze as the "lead vocalist of the Destiny Kids". That blog post also indicated that Rejoice Iwueze continued to sing with her siblings but also recorded a solo Gospel song.

http://www.boysoloist.com/artist.asp?VID=4983 included the names of two more members of that brother & sister Gospel group: Joshua and Caled Iwueze.

In February 2014 commenter Peter Debby posted this comment to destined kids joy joy joy vol 8,one of these featured videos:

Spoken:
Once the presence of God is with us.
There is no fear
Be it night or day
We are under his coverage, hallelujah

His name is Emmanuel
God is with us
His name is Emmanuel
God is with us
I'll never be afraid
His name is Emmanuel
God is with us
I'll never be afraid.
Emma I love you.

Verse:
Though I walk in the valley of death
I'll never be afraid
Though I walk in the fire or sea
I will never be consumed
God's great eyes is on me
Why should I fear?
His banner over me is love
I'm never alone.

Spoken:
Even though we are living in a wicked world
We have a great God
Jehovah Adonai is his name
He is our friend and our Lord, hallelujah

Unto us a child is born,
To us a child has come
Government shall be upon him
Wonderful is his name.
Counselor, almighty God
The everlasting Father
The prince of peace
The son of God
Emmanuel is his name.

Though I walk in the valley of death
