WEEKLY CONTEST 37
Warm greetings to all Lovers of Music and Afri-tunes,it's another week of contest and I'm glad to participate.
I welcome you all to week 37 of the Afri-tunes where we cherish and appreciate African music and artists.
For this week's contest,I decided to sing a song titled ''aka akaya'' in igbo,but it means "The arm of the lord'' in english,also meaning ''owo oluwa" in yoruba.
I decided to sing this song in different language, not because of anything, because our God is a God that understand all languages without learning, I decided in me to just acknowledge Him in diverse tongues although the original is just in igbo language, but I recreated it.
It's a song that explains God's omnipotence, the one who saves with His mighty hands, the all sufficient God.
The stream of life,who gives water to the thirsty,His might is unmeasurable and incomparable to none.
I chose this song to express gratitude to God on How ,He saved me from sickness recently, I had to be hospitalized for all types of illness, different hospital with different test result. But thanks to God am good now.
