English Lyrics, Nigeria, Yoruba Dasola Akinbule, Dunsin Oyekan, Iba Lyrics, Nathaniel Bassey 1 Comment
Blessed art thou, Son of David
Blessed art thou, Root of Jesse (Repeat)
You are eminently glorious, immaculately beautiful
I can go on and on, on and on
But my words are not enough
My vocabulary will fail me
But permit me to cry out: Iba oh! (Bowing in reverence)
Iba oh, iba (We bow in reverence) x5
Blessed art thou, Rock of Ages
Blessed art thou, King of Heaven (Repeat)
You are infinitely powerful, magnificently wonderful
I can go on and on, on and on
But my words are not enough
My vocabulary they fail me
Permit me to bring this song of victory: Iba oh! Iba! (Bowing in reverence)
Iba oh, iba (We bow in reverence) x?
You tell the wind how hard to blow
And tell the rain how much to fall
You lay the pathway for the lightning, Baba
Those who are wise will worship You
You are clothed in dazzling splendour
And wrapped in blistering light
There’s no limit to your Power
Those who are wise will honor You
Iba oh, iba (We bow in reverence) x?
El Shaddai, Elohim (Almighty God)
El Gibbor, Elohim (Mighty God, Lord God)
Iba eh, Iba oh (We bow in reverence)
Iba oh, iba (We bow in reverence) x?
Blessed art thou, Son of David
Blessed art thou, Root of Jesse
