I think that's Ahead on our Way. Either way, it is played in every Final Fantasy's credits (and in the intro to FF1 I believe, though haven't played it in ages).

Like most musicians and artists, there's going to be a lot of similarities in Nobuo's work. It's not like he's reusing things as an easy way out, but it's just his style.
