Hello wonderful people of Hive! It’s such a joy to be back again for AfriTunes Week 191, and this time I’m sharing something truly close to my heart — my original song titled “Praise the Lord.”

This song was born from a season of reflection — a time when life felt uncertain, and everything around me seemed quiet. I remember sitting alone one evening, thinking about how far God has brought me despite my flaws, fears, and failures. In that still moment, I heard a quiet voice in my heart say, “Praise Me — not because everything is perfect, but because I’m still God.” That single thought became the spark that birthed this song.

“Praise the Lord” came as a reminder that gratitude isn’t reserved for when life is smooth. True praise begins when we choose to trust God even when we don’t understand everything. I’ve seen moments where I thought I wouldn’t make it, yet His grace carried me through. Those experiences shaped the lyrics — every line is a reflection of gratitude, hope, and victory.

Musically, the song carries an uplifting rhythm and joyful energy, but behind that melody lies a deep message: no matter what happens, praise is a choice. It’s a weapon, a declaration of faith, and a testimony that God remains good.

Every time I sing this song, it rekindles my faith and fills me with peace. My prayer is that as you listen, you’ll also find a reason to lift your voice and say, “Lord, I thank You — because You are worthy of praise.”

A heartfelt appreciation to the AfriTunes team, curators, and supporters for creating this beautiful platform where our sounds, stories, and African expressions of worship find a home.

    LYRICS:

VERSE1
This is the day that the Lord has made
I will rejoice and be glad in it (2x)
Brothers come help me celebrate
Sisters come help me jubilate
For what he has done
For the gift of life
Why not come lets appreciate

CHORUS
Praise the Lord
Praise be to the Lord

VERSE2
Who am I not to give God praise
Who am I not to lift my voice
Blowing my trumpet up in zion
Shouting the shout of victory
This is the day that the Lord has
Every body praise the Lord
(back to Chorus)
