Hello friends, musicians, and music lovers of the Afritunes community, what's good? I hope this post meets feeling alright... This is Stefanovah and I'm here once again for Afritunes on Hive. It's always a pleasure doing what I love to do and sharing with you guys, and week 105 is no different
I would've put in an entry earlier in the week, my friend Alfred who plays the keyboard came by during the weekend as usual (we always rehearse with some other persons, as a team) but the issue was that I just didn't know what to sing. So here I am, finally singing something, acapella... I was at an event sometime in 2022 where a couple of songs by different rising gospel singers were recorded live and this one I'm doing today was one of them. I found the song to be nice thus i've remembered it, gone to check for it online, and am presenting it on Afritunes today. I don't really care about the popularity of the artiste, if a song is actually nice i'm more than happy to not only listen, but share with others and support the artiste in the process.
Idinma in Igbo translates as "You are good", and I'm sure many here concur that indeed Chineke (Jehovah) is good. I hope you enjoy this entry... Also if you're seeing this and you're based in the city of Port-Harcourt do let me know in the comments, i'll be visiting PH shortly, most likely will have a bit of a concert there for Easter too. It'll be nice to meet while I'm there
Lyrics
I'm here today, because I was kept by you
I'm alive today, because I was saved by you
I'm saved today, because I was loved by you
I can sing today, because you've been good to me
Your goodness, of your goodness... is all i've come to sing
Chineke Idinma... Chineke Idinma!
You are good, you are good... You are good
Chineke Idinma!
Here's the video of the original song from the live recording I attended:
