My entry for the Hive open mic week 324. Igwe by Mercy Chinwo/cover by Nwile Divine

Hello everyone, welcome to Hive open mic weekly music festival, I'll be doing a music cover for Igwe by Mercy Chinwo. This song is one of those worship songs that reminds us of the greatness of God and his faithfulness. "Igwe" means a King or a great leader by the Igbos in Nigeria, so many people may call God different names but to my understanding there is no name that can best describe who God truly is. He is greater than words may describe him.

In Nigeria we call him Igwe. I don't know what you call God in your language. I'll encourage you to sing along as we call him Igwe, lifting God as the King and acknowledging that He alone deserves all glory.

[Lyrics]
Chukwu neme mma, chukwu neme mma
Chi onye nji eme onu, chi onye nji eme onu
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Chukwu neme mma, chukwu neme mma
Chi onye nji eme onu, chi onye nji eme onu
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God

Yes you reign, yes you reign
In all the Earth, yes you reign God
Yes you reign, yes you reign
Yes you reign
Yes you reign, yes you reign
In all the Earth, yes you reign God
Yes you reign, yes you reign
Yes you reign
Only you are God

Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Oh what a father I have in you
Oh what a father I have in you
Always available when I call your name
Oh what a father I have in you
Oh what a father I have in you
Always available when I call your name
Only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, only you are God
Igwe, Igwe, Igwe, Igwe...

Hola a todos, bienvenidos al festival semanal de música con micrófono abierto de Hive. Hoy interpretaré una versión de «Igwe» de Mercy Chinwo. Esta canción es una de esas canciones de alabanza que nos recuerdan la grandeza de Dios y su fidelidad. «Igwe» significa rey o gran líder en la lengua igbo de Nigeria. Si bien muchas personas pueden llamar a Dios de diferentes maneras, en mi opinión, no hay un nombre que describa mejor quién es Dios en realidad. Él es más grande de lo que las palabras pueden expresar.

En Nigeria lo llamamos Igwe. No sé cómo llaman a Dios en su idioma. Los invito a cantar conmigo mientras lo llamamos Igwe, exaltando a Dios como Rey y reconociendo que solo Él merece toda la gloria.

[Letra]
Chukwu neme mma, chukwu neme mma
Chi onye nji eme onu, chi onye nji eme onu
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Chukwu neme mma, chukwu neme mma
Chi onye nji eme onu, chi onye nji eme onu
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios

Sí, tú reinas, sí, tú reinas
En toda la Tierra, sí, tú reinas, Dios
Sí, tú reinas, sí, tú reinas
Sí, tú reinas
Sí, tú reinas, sí, tú reinas
En toda la Tierra, sí, tú reinas, Dios
Sí, tú reinas, sí, tú reinas
Sí, tú reinas
Solo tú eres Dios

Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
¡Oh, qué padre tengo en ti!
¡Oh, qué padre tengo en ti!
Siempre disponible cuando te llamo
¡Oh, qué padre tengo en ti!
¡Oh, qué padre tengo en ti!
Siempre disponible cuando te llamo
Solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, solo tú eres Dios
Igwe, Igwe, Igwe, Igwe...
