Song lyrics: Nye Ya Ekele by Frank Edwards

Frank Edward's Biography

After the release of the album, Frankincense on 20th April, Frank Edwards @FRANKRICHBOY promised the song would get to the market on Monday April 25 via Honesty music. I happened to get the song yesterday from my local CD dealer and it was awesome listening to the songs. It is worthy to note that the album is currently rated number one on iTunes.

Nye ya ekele lyrics:

Verse1:

Jesu mi, Elegbami o

To you be praised, ye ye ye

Jehovah mi, Alagbara

To you be praised

If no be you, where we for dey o

If no be you, who we for be

If no be you, where we for go

Adupe o, oba to njobalo

Lord we declare your majesty

For you are God

Chorus:

K’ayi je nye ya ekele

Onye mere k’ayi di ndu n’uwa, I mela o

Verse2:

Even when the wind blows

I no dey fear lie lie

Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning

Standing on the solid rock

Nothing fit move me

Even if they try, Baba God no one dey try you

Who can battle with the Lord

I say no body

Who can battle with the Lord

I say no body

Ehe, o dim ka na nro ihe I na emerem ebuka o

Oba to njobalo

Lord we declare your majesty

For you are God

Chorus:

‘Nye ya ekele’ means ‘Give Him Thanks’. Frank Edwards gave yet another lyrical of worship to the almighty God calling Him names in English, Igbo and Yoruba languages. He then borrowed lyrical lines from popular ancient worship songs.

Instrumentals:

The intro by the harmonizing vocals and the acoustic guitar ushered in the song. The sound of the piano, bass guitar, violin and other sound effects made the song more than complete. the lead voice was as usual superb as well as the backups.
