For my today's entry, I covered a song by talented Nigerian Gospel artist, Mercy Chinwo, titled Bor Ekom, which means Receive thanks, this song was sung in my native dialect "Ibibio" spoken by orople from the southern part of Nigeria, Akwa-Ibom State precisely, and has a simple yet powerful lyrics, that's why I love the song so much, it's a song that acknowledges God for being great and not like men, we can't fully depend on man because they tend to disappoint, it's in our nature, but God doesn't, if He says a word, that's final.

Giving thanks to God shouldn't be only when things are going well for us, even in not-so-favorable times, we should give thanks to , believing all is working for our good. So I hope you enjoy listening to my cover of Bor Ekom, it's an acapella cover, and I made sure to include the lyrics and meaning of this song below. Thank you for watching and for your support.

Bor Ekom Lyrics**

Oooh oooh oooh oooh
