lyrics
When I think upon Your goodness
And Your faithfulness each day
I'm convinced it's not because I am worthy
To receive the kind of love that You give
But I'm grateful for Your mercy
And I'm grateful for Your grace
And because of how You've poured out your Yourself
I have come to sing this song out in praise
Imela, Imela
Okaka, Onyekeruwa (Onyekeruwa)
Imela, Imela
Eze mo
Who am I to sing Your praises?
(Who am I to worship You, Lord)
Who am I to worship You? (yeah)
Its Your blood that makes the difference in me
(And made a way)
And made a way to enter into Your throne
I could not come near Your presence
(I could never sing Your song)
I could never sing Your song (yeah)
But the sacrifice on Calvary's tree
(Is the reason)
Is the reason I can cry out today
Imela (imela) Imela
Yeah, yeah
Okaka, Onyekeruwa
