Finally, the long-awaited first semester exams have come and gone, and I'm grateful for God's grace, provision, and strength to make it through. This is Ese Oluwa by Sonnie Badu.

I am happy to present to you the song Ese Oluwa by Sonnie Badu.

Singing this song today, I realized that it is somewhat technical, but I'm glad I was able to arrange it regardless. I've been wanting to sing this song for a while, but I didn't get the chance. I'm glad I finally got the chance to sing it. It was a challenge but I'm glad I conquered it.

Basically, the song is a Yoruba song about thanking Jesus, written and sung in Yoruba language. The song is about appreciating Jesus for his love and mercy. I believe that this song will bring joy and hope to many.

I am grateful to God almighty for everything that has happened to me in my life so far, both the bad and the good, because they have made me who I am today directly and indirectly. This is why I stay positive, no matter what the situation may be. I have learned to fix my eyes only on the Lord God's almighty even in the midst of the storm.

My exam was tough and easy at the same time. At first I complained about the fact that calculation courses were the first we were to attempt, but at the end, I was thankful that they came first. They prepared me for the rest of the exam, which was much easier and faster. I was able to confidently answer the questions that came afterwards

When I got to school on Sunday night, my energy level was still 100%. I was able to attend the night class tutorial for Maths and Accounts, which were the first two calculation courses we had, and fortunately for me and the other students who paid attention during the tutorial, everything we solved was what was presented to us for the exam, so I was thrilled and confidently answered the question.

Now that I have done my best, I am leaving the rest for God in the hope that he will perfect it all. I thank God in advance for all the good things I shall experience in 2024.

I am praying for strength, courage, and faith to help me stay focused on my goals. I believe that with hard work and dedication, I will be able to achieve them. I am excited to see what the future has in store for me. I trust that you are too.

Instrumental
Ese Oluwa

I got to learn the song from church in the course of one of our rehearsals some years back. It's an interesting song.
Amen to the prayers.

I thank God for the completion of your exam.. Did you first record this song before you made the video. I am asking because your video and your voice are not in sync, and for me personally, it is not enticing to watch. But listening to the voice alone, you did well. I enjoyed the song.

I recorded the video the way I do my other videos. I hate that stuff you mentioned too...During the process of editing and getting everything to sync, it looked okay but turned out different after it was uploaded.
I will be more careful next time and hope that everything syncs even after it has been published.
Thanks for the feedback :)
