It's a good thing to be here again for this week's edition of our weekly participation on this great platform. I hope we've all been doing good and hope our day went as planned??. I'm here today with my entry and it is titled "I choose to worship you" by Cobhams Asuquo.
Cobhams Asuquo is a very multi talented Nigerian singer and song writer, producer and instrumentalist. He has not let his physical impairment hold him back one bit. He's a very versatile singer that'd be mentioned to be one of the top ten Nigerian singer with beautiful songs.
This song was released in the year 2007, from the album titled "you're the only one". This was the very first song that led me to the rest of his songs.
Looking critically into the present economic system of Nigeria, my country, I tell you categorically that, it is nothing to write home about. The price of things has skyrocketed due to the hike in price of fuel which is our main source of energy in the country. Once the price of fuel increases, the price of commodities increases as well.
The song is just a good way of describing Nigeria right now but nevertheless, I want to believe that won't stop us from worshipping and working for God. No matter the challenge we might be passing through right now, whether as a citizen of Nigeria or as an individual because life is too short not to choose God in all we do....
It's an honor to have you stop by my post. Thanks to you all 🤗
LYRICS
Have you read the papers, do you hear what they say?
Rising unemployment, cost of living everyday is getting high
Another suicide bomber in a bus with thirty kids,
It kinda makes me wonder what those children ever did
yet we still go to church and sing shout to the Lord
and we lift up holy hands and we're reading his word
now i am sitting by my piano with nothing to play
but that doesn't change the fact that God is God anyway
So i sing bless ye the lord through my trials and all my troubles,
i have come with a heart of worship
for the gift of your son, for the grace to fight my battles
i have come to you with thanksgiving
hear my broken cry, see my broken spirit
but in every situation, i'll still choose to worship you .
Please forgive me this is not your normal worship song
i try to write a simple song that me and everyone can sing along
but i realise that there is something about praise
it shouldn't only come when all is seemingly okay
so when you start to cry, like your life is a mess
don't be scared, don't be discouraged it is only a test
why don't you lift up your voice to the ears of your God
and release sweet smelling savour from your alabaster box

Singing bless ye the lord, through my trials and all my troubles,
i have come with a heart of worship
for the gift of your son, for the grace to fight my battles
i have come to you with thanksgiving
though the flowers die, see the grasses whither
but when troubles multiplies, i'll still choose to worship you .
I worship you, Almighty God, what a mighty God we serve,
who is there like you Jesus, lover of my soul?
only God to whom all praise is due,
blessed be the... he will make a ...you are highly... oooo
Bless ye the lord, through my trials and all my troubles,
i have come with a heart of worship
for the gift of your son, for the grace to fight my battles
i have come to you with thanksgiving
singing bless ye the lord, through my trials and all my troubles
i have come with a heart of worship
for the gift of your son, for the grace to fight my battles,
i have come to you with thanks giving,
saying, hear my humble cry, see my broken spirit,
but in every situation, i'll still choose to worship you only you
