Wow!!! applause to the host of vibes music competition @lordbutterfly why? It week 8 of the competition and each week with great numbers of entries. Hive is getting popular. Yes! This is my entry for week 8. Didn't catch up on time with the advent of a theme since I already recorded this video due to electricity reach. This week I decided with my co-amazing singer to go on our dialect on the popular hymn "GRACE TIS A CHARMING SOUND" in our own dialect "Yoruba" one of many in Nigeria where I hail from. I so much love the hymn for many reason that surpass explanation. Music is indeed powerful. Let together experience the power of music that surpass it languages. Here are the lyrics in the dialect and English:-
Ore ofe sa
N’igbekele mi
Jesu ku fun araye
O ku fun mi pelu
Ore ofe l’o ko
Oruko mi l’orun
L’o fi mi fun Od’agutan
T’O gba iya mi je.
Ore ofe to mi
S’ona alafia
O ntoju mi l’ojojumo
Ni irin ajo mi
Ore ofe ko mi
Bi a ti ‘gbadura
O pa mi mo titi d’oni
Ko si je ki nsako
Je k’ore ofe yi
F’agbara f’okan mi
Ki nle fi gbogbo ipa mi
At’ojo mi fun O. Amin.
Verse 1
Grace! ’tis a charming sound,
Harmonious to the ear;
Heav’n with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.
CHORUS
Saved by grace alone,
This is all my plea,
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
GRACE TIS A CHARMING SOUND Verse 2
‘Twas grace that wrote my name
In life’s eternal book;
‘Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took.
CHORUS
Saved by grace alone,
This is all my plea,
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Verse 3
Grace taught my wandering feet
To tread the pilgrim road;
And new supplies each hour I meet
While pressing on to God.
CHORUS
Saved by grace alone,
This is all my plea,
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Verse 4
Grace taught my heart to pray,
And made my eyes o’erflow;
‘Tis grace which kept me to this day,
And will not let me go.
CHORUS
Saved by grace alone,
This is all my plea,
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Verse 5
Oh, let that grace inspire
My heart with strength divine;
May all my powers to Thee aspire,
And all my days be Thine.
CHORUS
Saved by grace alone,
This is all my plea,
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
