Olorun Agbaye – You Are Mighty

Olorun Agbaye – You Are Mighty”,

By Nathaniel Bassey

(feat. Chandler Moore & Oba)

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]…

Just Worship .Worship…it’s ‘Elder Nat’ at it again; pouring out a song from heaven’s vats onto earthly terrain, refreshing us in the dryness of the 2020 pandemic. An olden goldie spiritual folksong has worn a new wineskin ( Elder Nat’s melodies and lyrics) , with strong spirits ( Chandler Moore and Oba ) squeezed into the press. It’s a blend of sweet ballad verses with a powerful chant like chorus in Yoruba. Just one word of caution: You’re likely to get  more and more ‘tipsy’ as we proceed…

‘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’

Uh oh. These lyrics above ( and those vocals with instrumentals like rushing waters from the third heaven! ) are challenging us to look beyond looming giants, to see the Giant slayer of The Galaxies. You need to drink deeper to alter your vision, then. I warned you…

‘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

You are Mighty o’

Wow. The chorus describes the majestic display of God in the firmament; the confidence of all creation revealing matchless might.

‘By the blood that You shed we have overcome

Discharged and acquitted for life

Then You gave us the right to Your Holy Name

The center of power and strength

There is nothing You cannot change (Baba)

There’s no bondage You cannot break

If You have said it, then You will do it

You have a track record of keeping Your word

And You’re not about to stop doing it now’

Aaaaah. Are you beginning to see it? From chains and misery in the docks, to freedom and power flowing ( deposited by The Blood of Christ ) from your head to your socks, and yes, even flowing out of you to change your world! And we are reminded of God as ‘ the one who speaks and does ( Ain’t no stopping Him now…)

‘Olorun Agbaye o [God of the Universe]

You are Mighty o

Olorun Agbaye o [God of the Universe]

You are Mighty o

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]

Jesus, se bi eyin le f’oju orun (se aso bora)

[Jesus, 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]

(You are Mighty o)

[repeat]

[You are The One who is wrapped with clouds]

Olorun Agbaye o [God of the Universe]

You are Mighty o…’

Ha. Hahaha. The chorus chants and as libs get more fast and furious here. Is He not The God of the Universe? Is He not Jesus, the Savior through whom all things are made. Is He not mighty? The vocals and sounds are whipping into a glorious crescendo of stormy grace here. Overpowering, to say the least. I would suggest a quiet place where you can ‘express’ for a while. The Man of Might is moving. The wine is flowing…
