This song "Ogo" is a yoruba language that means Glory. Yoruba is one of the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria. The other two ethnic groups are the Igbo and Hausa. Though there are lots of indigenous languages in Nigeria, Over 520 to be precise, and these languages are all classified under these three major ethnic groups.

So the interpretation of the song means "Glory hallelujah to the lamb." The lamb here means the one who gave himself to be slaughtered for the sins of you and me. So the song is in honour of His holy name, which means that glory to the lamb that was slained. It we even went further to say, "I won't stop praising you, i won't stop loving you forever and ever. This word is born from the heart of commitment and promise to stay faithful to the service of God irrespective of the situations and challenges of life.

Many have stopped attributing glory to God when men glorify them by the works they do. Many have become so proud or full of themselves and seek to be honoured rather than earning it. When honoured, they take pride in it without acknowledging the God that made that honoured possible. On the earth of today, it looks like someone who is making content that is not originally his own and projecting it like he is the owner. So, there's a need to acknowledge the owner and maker of our lives.
