Hello AFRI-TUNES week 39.
It’s your girl Angiesings with cover of Omeka nnaya by Mercy Chinwo. Im so excited that was the 1st runner up for Week 38 . My sincere appreciation to @afritunes. I believe i will be taking the crown one of these days to come.

My entry of this week is one of the toughers songs i have ever done. Though Im a Ghanaian, the song always moves me when ever i hear it. I decided to do this song even though I do not understand all the words but the song always moves something within of me.

There is this part that says men may not understand how far you have brought me and I think that’s my most favorite part of the song. Sometimes until people have actually seen what and where you are coming from they wouldn’t really appreciate it.

I bet we all have untold stories and deep within only we can best tell how good God has been to us. That was my inspiration for choosing this song. I really think songs are one of the best ways to express the things we least speak about
I am sure there are some of us thy can relate and attest to the fact that we have only come this far not by our own might or by our strength.
I want to use this opportunity to thank all my friends for you support and for accepting me into this beautiful family for all your support so far. You have been a blessing .
I tried my best with my Nigerian words and I hope you enjoy the song and be blessed as you listen🥰.

Link to the instrumental's of the song can be obtain here. Intrumentals from HC Music. God bless them for making the instrumentals available and free to use by anyone.

You can also enjoy the original song here.

NB: Lyrics are in the caption of the video.

Lyrics
"Omekannaya"

Ooh...

Jesus omeka nnaya
I worship You today
Jesus omeka nnaya e
I bow before Your throne
Jesus omeka nnaya
I worship You today
Jesus omeka nnaya e
I bow before Your throne

Nara nara nara oh
Nara ekelem jiri bia
Onye di nso
Nara nara nara oh
Nara ekelem jiri bia
Onye di nso

Onye di nso
I lift my hands to You
Onye di nso
Cause only You deserve it
Onye di nso
Ihi nemerem ebuka
Chionye di nso
To You I give my all

Men may not understand
How far You've brought me
They may not understand
Men may not understand
How far You've brought me
They may not understand

Jesus omeka nnaya
I worship You today
Jesus omeka nnaya e
I bow before Your throne
Jesus omeka nnaya
I worship You today
Jesus omeka nnaya e
I bow before Your throne

Nara nara nara oh
Nara ekelem jiri bia
Onye di nso
Nara nara nara oh
Nara ekelem jiri bia
Onye di nso

Onye di nso
The doer of all good things
Onye di nso
Inhe ikwuru ga eme
Onye di nso
The only precious Lamb of God
Onye di nso
Obata obiye

I can't imagine what I would be without You
Go without You, can't live without You
I can't imagine what I will be without You
Where I would go without You
Can't live without You

Jesus, omeka nnaya, omeka nnaya, obato obiye
Jesus, omeka nnaya, inhe ikwuru ga eme

Men may not understand
How far You've brought me
They may not understand
Men may not understand
How far You've brought me
They may not understand

Oh Jesus...
Omeka nnaya e
Obata obiye
Men may not understand
How far You've brought me
They may not understand

Omeka nnaya e
Obata obiye
Omeka nnaya e (men may have written you off)
Omeka nnaya e (Omeka nnaya will change your story)
Inhe ikwuru ga eme
Jehovah Ekwueme, oh...

Omeka nnaya e...

Destiny Changer
Wisdom of the wise
(The only true God!)
I don't know how You do it but I like it
You're consistent in all Your ways
You are closer than a friend
I worship You...
(The only true God!)
I don't know how You do it but I like it
Jesus...

Oh yes, they are.

First, the fact that you're a Ghanian but you sang the song perfectly like you're from Igbo is wonderful, even me I still can't sing the song funky having heard it for so long.

Then your beautiful soprano voice is what gets my attention coupled with your smiles. You did great dear. Congrats 🎊
