Hello Hive @Afri-tunes week #54, my name is @mhizerbee and this is my entry for this week's post. To add spice to my entry I decided to do a cover of this song with my junior sister. Her name is @glowie. I hope this piece blesses you, I hope it inspires you and I really hope it makes meaning to your ears.

As Christians or would I say as children of God, it is pertinent, essential and of great necessity that we give thanks to God always. When I talk about giving Thanks to God always I mean all the time, in the morning, afternoon, evening, night. When you're going out, working or doing anything.

Giving thanks to God does not need or require any special thing whatsoever. You don't need to wait for your neighbor, friends, family colleagues, associates or whoever. The good book says in good and in bad times we should give thanks to God.

Most times, I see people praising and thanking God because he has done something for them which is wrong. It's not supposed to be so. We don't have to always wait until when God answers our prayers or grants our heart desires before we thank him.

Let me start with sleeping and waking up in the morning. This (Sleeping and waking up in the morning) is one big and great miracle that we most times underrate. Waking up each blessed day is a very big blessing and miracle and it is important thag we give thanks to God.

Many are there who are in one difficulty or the other. They're people in terrible situations and some may not even have hope of pulling through. I know life is hard, things are hard as well. The present situation of things is very hard but in all of these things, we shouldn't forget to always tell God "Thank you".

Make it a habit, it should be something you cannot do without. Again, the book good says that prayers move mountains and praises move God. I know for a fact that God who is ever trustworthy and faithful will always be there for each and everyone of us. All we meed do is to appreciate him and see him turn things around amd even do the impossible.

I may not have everything I need in life now but one thing is certain which is that I will always Thank God today, tomorrow and forever.

The song is a simple song though but I'll drop the lyrics below 👇

Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son
Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son
And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"
And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"
Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son
Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son
And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"
And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"
Give thanks
We give thanks to You oh Lord
We give thanks

Welcome to Afri-tunes, it's good to have you here.
The harmony was really good, you rehearsed well.
I look forward to seeing your next entry. African music since afritunes is about celebrating African music on hive.
By the way, you both have a good voice. Well done.

Thank you, dear.

You are welcome

Oh! Two beautiful people as sisters ?? I never knew . And you both have excellent voices like that of the angels. I love Don Moen so much and would have loved to be doing His songs here every week if not that he doesn't feature among the African artiste of which we are allowed to do their songs here.

You wrote quite very insightfully about the song and I really agree with you , as Christians, we should always give thanks to God. Nice work by you both.
If this was a song by an African artiste this presentation would have been a hit in this community for this week

Thank you so much ❤️

Yawekum

You are doing beautifully well.
We'll love to have more of you.
See you next week!

Thank you 😊

Awesome rendition from you two. I love the harmony you both established and how you did so well to present this lovely piece.

I didn't realise that you were sisters 😁 thanks for giving us the expo and informing us. Now we have known and I'm sure we'd love to see and hear beautiful melodies and harmonies from you two every week 🥰.

You and your sis @glowie joined our wonderful community for few weeks now and you're doing so good. I'm also amazed at your improvement especially in respect to putting down inspirational piece to spice up your content. It is really awesome and I commend you for that. Keep doing well.


By the way, we'd love to hear more of African music or music from African artists. There are so many songs you can pick from: either Secular or Gospel. Songs from Wizkid, Burna Boy or Nathaniel Bassey, Prince Grace Lokwa, and so many others. The list is inexhaustible, infact, you are highly welcomed to share your own music with us. And if you are confused about which to pick, you can check the community pinned post for the weekly suggestions... Reading it will guide you well well. 😉

Yea, that's what this community is all about, and I'll love to see you killing it as usual 😉

Also, this rendition would be perfect for week 55 since you two have presented for week 54. Yea, one entry per week. I'm sure you understand. However, no need to repeat it for next week.

Oh, I'm so sorry about that. That was a typo error and it has been corrected.

I see all the sweet and nice things you've said. I might as well take them as compliments. Thank you so much for stopping by and I'll try my best.

It's nice to be part of y'all. Thank you for having me.

You're welcome.

That was a typo error and it has been corrected.

We are still under week 54, and week 55 will begin on Friday. That's why I said cross-checking with the pinned posts will be better off.

Okay, Sir 🙌
Noted 👍😊
