For my entry in the Vibes Web 3 Music Competition, week 28, I am excited to present a heartfelt performance of the Yoruba gospel song "Se Ohun Ti O Se." This song, which translates to "Do What You Do" in English, carries a profound message of trust and faith in God's ability to accomplish great things in our lives. It is a song of praise that acknowledges God's sovereign power and goodness, encouraging us to rely on Him in all circumstances.
Performing this song is a personal expression of my own faith journey. The lyrics are a reminder of God's faithfulness and His ability to exceed our expectations when we put our trust in Him. "Se Ohun Ti O Se" invites listeners to surrender their worries and fears, allowing God to work wonders as He always does.
In this performance, I accompany myself on the piano, a combination that allows the song's deep emotional resonance to shine through. The simplicity of the arrangement is intentional, as I wanted to create a worshipful atmosphere that draws attention to the lyrics and the powerful message they convey. As I play and sing, my goal is to create an intimate moment of worship, where the listener can connect with God and reflect on His goodness.
The Yoruba language, in which the song is sung, adds a layer of cultural richness to the performance. Yoruba is a language filled with musicality and expression, and its use in worship creates a unique and profound experience. The rhythmic patterns and the melodic structure of the song flow naturally with the piano accompaniment, making the performance both spiritually uplifting and musically engaging.
I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to share this song with the Vibes Web 3 Music Competition community. Each week of this competition has been an opportunity for me to grow as a musician and to explore new ways of expressing my faith through music. I hope that my performance of "Se Ohun Ti O Se" inspires and uplifts everyone who hears it, reminding them of God's unwavering power and love.
Thank you for watching and listening to my entry for week 28 of the competition. I look forward to your feedback and hope this song touches your heart as much as it has touched mine.
