Hive Open Mic 🎤 week 194 || End of December. Random cover songs.

The year 2023 is almost coming to an end and in a day and some hours, we will be getting into a new year 2024. God has been great to every one of us and it's good to appreciate Him all the time for His unending love towards us. For this week, the theme is "End of December" and it looks like an open theme to choose whatever song to present. I'd wanted to do something different before, but not until the last minute of my recording, I decided to feature my younger sister who is also the last born of the house. Hehehe, she is already a grown-up lady and will be moving to 200 level in the university by January.

I settled on some random songs which are three, one of which she knows well but the other two, I had to rush her to practice. In case, you might notice some mistakes from her, just know I didn't give her much time to learn as I was trying to make things quick because it was getting busier than I could even think of.

Looking at the whole year, it has been God and one thing I am grateful for this year is my relationship with Him. God is the same all the time and with Him, there is no impossibility. The first song says "You are God, from beginning to the end, there's no place for argument, you are God all by yourself". God never changes and this is something I have relied on throughout my journey from the first month to the last month which would be ending soon. He has been faithful and when I look back, all I see is His grace.

The second one is "Goodness of God" from Elevation Worship. This is one of my best songs for me this year. I got to know about this song some months back and it has been one song I always sing anytime because it makes me understand how loving God is. God has been so good to me and it is one thing I am ever lucky for since my journey with Him. Sometimes when I think of a lot of things and how I get answers to most requests, all I can see is God's love and faithfulness. He has never disappointed me and this, I am super grateful for.

The third is "See how far you've brought me, Lord, I've come to worship Him." If you notice, these songs are my way of appreciating the Almighty for bringing me thus far to this moment. Even times when I wanted to feel sad about my situation, I still think about those who aren't privileged, but I do. This is something I have always held onto, to be grateful for everything. No matter what I have, what I have not, still, it calls for thankfulness to make God know that I am not an ingrate.

These are the three songs that came to mind when I was looking for what to present and with my sister accompanying me in this, we are grateful to God for loving and keeping us. I hope our songs melt your hearts this day and for that, we are wishing you all a prosperous new year as it begins soon.

Thanks for your time on my blog.
