AFRI-TUNES WEEK #80 || ADONAI BY NATHANIEL BASSEY || COVER BY ANGIESINGS
Hello Afritunes, it’s a new week and I’m glad to be a part again. I have been away for a very long time and that’s not intentional 😂. It was beyond my control. I got pregnant and could barely sing so I couldn’t participate but it’s all for the best. So this week I’m doing a song by Nathaniel Bassey titled Adonai. The lyrics of the song are actually a scripture from
Psalm 113:3-4
"From the rising of the sun to its going down
The Lord’s name is to be praised.
4 The Lord is high above all nations,
His glory above the heavens."
It’s a beautiful thing to exalt the name of our creator for that is the reason why we were made,to exalt Him. While we have breath and have a chance to be be able to speak this is the time to exalt him.
What really inspired me to sing this song is what I went through during the last few weeks of my pregnancy. One question I always ask is what if I was never able to sing again, what if I was not able to praise the Lord with the voice He had given me again. That is not to say we can only praise Him through songs but at least for me, I think I do it better through music. It became practical and clear to me when people say we do not value what we have until it is lost. It has not only thought me a lesson but also made me much more appreciative of the gift God has given me.
So friends while we still can, let’s exalt the one who can give and take from us at will and praise and appreciate Him for who He is.
Please pardon me if there are a few hitches here and there😂 I’m still recovering. But all the same I’m grateful to God be a part of this wonderful family again. God bless us all and I hope this song is an encouragement to some to praise the Lord more… thank you
Lyrics of Adonai :
Adonai Lyrics by Nathaniel Bassey
Can you give him a shout of praise
Adonai
Sing adonai

Adonai
Calling him adonai
Adonai
Adonai
Adonai
From the rising of the sun
To the setting of the same
Your name is to be hallowed
Adonai.......
