Great Africans, I bring greetings from my end. Happy Sunday to everyone watching me and happy New week to all my friends in this platform.

Today I will be singing an old chorus in Igbo language. I will also try to translate it in English language for the purpose of those who don't understand Igbo language.

The song says do you know what He (God) has done for me that I am praising Him. Do you know the great things he has done in my life that I worship him.

What actually drew my attention to this particular song is the way we are been taking care of by God, in this difficult situation. Especially in Nigeria today that hunger is dealing with people.

Even those who are on salary at the end of the month can't not eat three meals a day. When I look around as a student who have my children too going to school. With all the bills yet God feeds us every blessed day. It is a thing of joy and we need to appreciate God for His love and kindness towards everyone of us.

This is the lyrics below. I wrote it myself because is an old song that I know from my child hood.

Igbo language 👇
I marala ihe ahu o mere m, nji nekele ya,
I marala ihe ahu o mere m, nji na aja mma?

Oria ahu o gworo m.
Nji na ekele ya.

Oria ahu o gworo m.
Nji na ekele ya.

Nni ahu onyere m oo
Nni ahu onyere m oo

English language 👇

Do you know what He has done for me, that I am praising Him?

Do you know what He has done for me, that I am appreciating Him?

The life that he gave me,
That I am praising Him,

The life that he gave me,
That I am praising Him,

The food that he has given me,
That I am appreciating Him

The food that he has given me,
That I am appreciating Him.

Thanks alot. I do really appreciate your coming around. See you in the comment section.
