Hello everyone, It's Nigeria's independent week and I hope we are all having a proper holiday.
it's another week of afri-tunes, another week to celebrate African musician and their songs, African music reflects morals and culture and am glad to participate in this weeks contest.
This time I decide to go with a song by Nathaniel Bassey featuring Chandler Moore & Oba, but I'll be singing only the first and second solo.
I was already having a headache of choice of song for this, I wanted to go for something unusual, but as I was about to prepare for yesterday's Sunday independence service, I was in my room meditating while preparing for church as my neighbor played this song on his phone, meanwhile I never knew it was on radio station, I asked him to please replay the song but he said it was on FM, I immediately went to download the song.
Even though I was familiar with the song I didn't know it wasn't on my playlist. I downloaded the song with the intention of scoring it and rehearsing the lyrics, until it strucked my mind to present it for afri-tunes weekly contest.
I made up mind to do so, I believed God has indirectly directed me to sing it, there's a reason for that.
This song is a beautiful song of English with a mixture of yoruba, it's a song of exultation, praising God for His works.
The title “Olorun Agbaye” meaning “God of the universe” explains that our God is a God of wonders, He does what He says and never fails in His promise, The way he works is a mystery and magnificent.
I hope you sing along with the lyrics... thanks and enjoy!!!
Lyrics;
You are good, you are kind
You are more than these
I'm lost for words trying to describe You
Elohim, Elyon, Alese lewi [He who does what He has said]
Your greatness is all I see
There is nothing You cannot do
There's no mountain You cannot move
If You have said it, then You will do it
'cause You have a track record of keeping Your word
And You're not about to stop doing it now
Olorun Agbaye o [God of the Universe]
You are Mighty o
Olorun Agbaye o [God of the Universe]
You are Mighty o
Se bi iwo l'ofi oju orun (se aso bora)
[You are The One who is wrapped with clouds]
Se bi eyin le f'oju orun (se aso bora)
[You are The One who is wrapped with clouds]
Olorun Agbaye o [God of the Universe]
You are Mighty o
