Hello everyone it's good to be back here again, and I welcome you to my blog. This is Hive openmic week 224. My name is @darabs. I believe you are all doing Good.

Let me send a special shout-out to the curators for chosing the title of this week "summertime".

Summer time is indeed a good time for family and friends to bond and go on vacation, sight seeing merriment, tours, visitation, adventure and picnics. It is of no doubt that one of the things that makes summertime a memorable time is the fact that it goes along with good music (no music no Summer)

It is in line with the above statement that I have chosen to do the cover of the song "Jesus take the wheel by Carrie Underwood.

Carrie Underwood is an American singer who rose to fame after winning the fourth season of "American Idol" in 2005. Underwood is considered one of the most successful country artists of all time, known for her powerful vocals and hit songs that often focus on themes of love, heartbreak, and empowerment ¹. She has been named the top female country artist of the 2000s and 2010s by Billboard.

The song talking us coming to our weakend, where we discovered that we can't on our own succeed or accomplish anything reasonable. So we need to surrender to God to take over and lead us to the right path.

So, it's my desire that we will come to a point where we will have no other option other than to summit to God totally. Haven't said this, I urge you to come and sing along with me.

*Lyrics*

She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati on a snow-white Christmas Eve

Going home to see her mama and her daddy with the baby in the backseat

50 miles to go, and she was running low on faith and gasoline

It'd been a long, hard year

She had a lot on her mind, and she didn't pay attention

She was going way too fast

Before she knew it, she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass

She saw both their lives flash before her eyes

She didn't even have time to cry

She was so scared

She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus, take the wheel

Take it from my hands

'Cause I can't do this on my own

I'm letting go

So give me one more chance

And save me from this road I'm on

Jesus, take the wheel

It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder

And the car came to a stop

She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat, sleeping like a rock

And for the first time in a long time

She bowed her head to pray

She said, "I'm sorry for the way I've been living my life

I know I've got to change, so from now on tonight"

Jesus, take the wheel

Take it from my hands

'Cause I can't do this on my own

I'm letting go

So give me one more chance

And save me from this road I'm on

Oh, Jesus, take the wheel

Oh, I'm letting go

So give me one more chance

Save me from this road I'm on

From this road I'm on

Jesus, take the wheel

Oh, take it, take it from me

Oh, whoa, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

*letras en español*

Conducía el viernes pasado camino a Cincinnati en una víspera de Navidad blanca como la nieve.

Ir a casa para ver a su mamá y a su papá con el bebé en el asiento trasero.

Faltaban 50 millas y se estaba quedando sin fe y sin gasolina.

Había sido un año largo y duro.

Tenía muchas cosas en la cabeza y no prestó atención.

Ella iba demasiado rápido

Antes de darse cuenta, estaba girando sobre una delgada lámina de vidrio negro.

Ella vio las vidas de ambos pasar ante sus ojos.

Ella ni siquiera tuvo tiempo de llorar

ella estaba tan asustada

Ella levantó las manos en el aire.

Jesús, toma el volante

Tómalo de mis manos

Porque no puedo hacer esto solo

Estoy dejando ir

Así que dame una oportunidad más

Y sálvame de este camino en el que estoy

Jesús, toma el volante

Todavía hacía más frío cuando llegó al hombro.

Y el auto se detuvo

Lloró cuando vio a ese bebé en el asiento trasero, durmiendo como una piedra.

Y por primera vez en mucho tiempo

Ella inclinó la cabeza para orar

Ella dijo: "Lo siento por la forma en que he estado viviendo mi vida

Sé que tengo que cambiar, así que de ahora en adelante esta noche".

Jesús, toma el volante

Tómalo de mis manos

Porque no puedo hacer esto solo

Estoy dejando ir

Así que dame una oportunidad más

Y sálvame de este camino en el que estoy

Oh, Jesús, toma el volante

Oh, lo estoy dejando ir

Así que dame una oportunidad más

Sálvame de este camino en el que estoy

Desde este camino en el que estoy

Jesús, toma el volante

Oh, tómalo, tómalo de mí.

Oh, espera, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

One of the major things that gives me great joy, is coming here every week to listen, to read, and to learn from this great family (Afritunes community). Let me quickly apologize for not being here last week because I was kinda down with a little fever but all thanks to God Almighty for His divine healing.

Today I will be hitting you with a cover of a Yoruba song title Eyin Ni O Olorun by Joke Akande.

Joke Akande is a Nigerian gospel musician, singer, and songwriter, who has released several albums and singles over the years, and has collaborated with other notable gospel artists in Nigeria. Her music style is a blend of contemporary gospel, R&B, and traditional Nigerian sounds.

I have chosen this song because of its soulful and uplifting of spirit, and it carries messages of hope, faith, and inspirations.

The song expresses strong worship to God Almighty acknowledging that God is God, He's the creator and the King of glory who existed even before the world was created. Yes! Indeed, the song is so uplifting with the strong expression of God as an ancient God. Hallelujah....!!!

The song is a very short song and very easy to learn. So, come along and sing with me

Hello everyone and how are you guys doing today? I hope this meets you well. Welcome to Afritunes week 121. My name is @danrabs. It feels good to be here again as always. I see you guys as family, and you know what they say? " Family are forever" so I just can't get tired of meeting with you guy ( Hive family).

Alright, today, I will be doing a cover of a short song title " Ese ni bi tetibere" by Moses Adeyemi.

Moses Adeyemi, is a Nigerian Gospel singer also known as Harmony Singer. He's a gospel singer with a good flow of gospel inspirations. He's also known for his soulful and versatile vocal, which has led him to perform in many countries thus; Canada, Spain, France, Dubai, London, Ghana, South Africa, Ney York, New Jersey etc. He won the best Artist in the 2021 Celestial Music Awards.

I love and choose this song because it help me (us) to express my profound gratitude to God Almighty for what He has done, what He's still doing, and what He will yet do in our lives. You know, one of the things that triggers people to do more or go extra mile, is when you show appreciation and pour out your heart in gratitude. So this song came to do just that. Needles to say, that for us as Christians, we cannot stop thanking God as he has been very faithful to us from ages past and to ages yet to come. The song is short, simple and easy to learn. Come sing along with me.

*Lyrics*

*Title:* Ese Nibi Teti Bere

Ese nibi teti bere

Thank you for where you started with us

Ese nibi te bade

Thank you for where we are now

Adupe o Jesu

We thank you Jesus

Nibi te mu wa Io

Ese nibi teti bere

Thank you for where you started with us

Ese nibi te bade

Thank you for where we are now

Hello everyone, how are you guys doing today? Welcome to Hive open mic week 220. My name is @danrabs. I'm very happy to be here and i like to kindly bring to your notice that this is my first post here, and I do hope that you will understand and pardon my mistakes and errors here as am very open to all forms of corrections and teachings here. I consider the theme "Time" for this week as a very interesting theme to sing and talk about. There's a popular saying which says " time waists for no one" maybe I should say, I came into Hive open mic at the *right time* hahahaha

Well, I will be doing a cover of a song title, *You are God* by Nathaniel Bassey. He is a Nigerian singer, pastor, trumpeter and gospel song writer, who over the years, has written and sang some of the most prominent, life touching and soul lifting songs.

The song, "you are God" is connected to the theme of this week *time* because the song brings to our knowledge that *times and seasons* are in God's hands, meaning; human workings, striving, planning, achievements, growth, development and attainment in life, is not because we know how to plan, work or set goals or good timing for ourselves, rather, it's God who makes everything possible and in His infinite mercy, He makes things to manifest in our life. You know, as a young boy, when I was growing up, I had dream, aspirations, goals and set target for myself, and as time pass by, some of these thing weren't achieved and I felt very bed, one that I can still remember vividly, is when I was seeking for admission into tertiary institution, and most of my friends got but I didn't, and I felt very bad, but today some of them are even late and some of them, I'm at least a step ahead of them in life and I thank God for that. At God's time, He makes all things beautiful. So this song calls for us to relax and know that times and seasons are in the hands of God and when God says it's your time to get married, buy that dream cars, build your desire house, get your kids, get that new juicy paying job, no one can stop it, and if He says it's your season to shine, nothing can stop you. So, we must make sure we always commit all our plans, dreams, aspirations desires, goals etc into the hands of God and at the appointed time of God, He will bring it to fruition.

*Lyrics*

Title: *You Are God* ( Nathaniel Bassey)

You are God from beginning to the end

There's no place for argument

You are God all by yourself

You are God from beginning to the end

There's no place for argument

You are God all by yourself

Uh uh uh uh oh yeah

You've got times and seasons in your hands

You called for light out of darkness

You don't need a man to be the God you are

But you have chosen to call me your own

Oh you are God from beginning to the end

There's no place for argument

Oh you are God all by yourself

You've got times and seasons in your hands oh oh oh oh oh

You called for light out of darkness

You don't need a man to be the God you are

But in your mercy you've called us your own eh eh

You are God from beginning to the end hallelujah

There's no place for argument oh

You are God all by yourself

Español

*Tú eres Dios* (Nathaniel Bassey)

Eres Dios desde el principio hasta el fin.

No hay lugar para la discusión

Eres Dios por ti mismo

Eres Dios desde el principio hasta el fin.

No hay lugar para la discusión

Eres Dios por ti mismo

Uh uh uh uh oh sí

Tienes tiempos y estaciones en tus manos

Pidiste luz de la oscuridad

No necesitas un hombre para ser el Dios que eres

Pero has elegido llamarme tuyo

Oh tu eres Dios desde el principio hasta el fin

No hay lugar para la discusión

Oh, eres Dios por ti mismo

Tienes tiempos y estaciones en tus manos oh oh oh oh oh

Pidiste luz de la oscuridad

No necesitas un hombre para ser el Dios que eres

Pero en tu misericordia nos has llamado tuyos eh eh

Eres Dios desde el principio hasta el fin aleluya

No hay lugar para discutir oh

Eres Dios por ti mismo

Hello everyone, how are you guys doing today? truth you are all keeping well. Welcome to Afritunes community week 120. My name is @Danrabs and it gives me great pleasure to be always here, amongst this wonderful family. Yoruba song is a big "thing" for me, so you may be hearing a number of it coming from me.

Well, today, I will be doing a short cover of a Yoruba song, titled " Anjade lo Leni Eledumare" by Chief Ebenezer Obey. He Is a Nigerian juju musician, singer, and bandleader. He is one of the most popular and influential musicians in Nigeria. The song was done in 1982 that was a long time before I was born, hahahaha, but it's meaning and impact is still very much meaningful, significant and even more relevant in our days.

It's of no doubt today, that you never can tell if you will come back home in one peace when you step out of the house in the morning in pursuit of daily bread or for a green pastures.

The song is a very powerful pray which everyone should endeavor to say everyday before stepping out of the house inrespective of your religion. The song is a cry to God for safety as we all go out to hustle and try to make ends meet, the praying song says " as we go out to look for what to eat, may we not meet with what will eat (consume/kill) us.

You know in the old days, before the arrival of Westernization in Africa, the Yoruba people are known to be great hunters amongst other things. So, the song was sang in line with the sense of a man (father) going out to hunt for Games and you know sometimes, when hunters goes out to hunt, they are exposed to so many dangers in the forest, and could be attacked by wide and dangerous animal and sometimes even get lost in the forest. today, we may not be hunting in the forest but believe you me, we are all hunting in our places of work and businesses, and as such, we are exposed to all forms of insecurities, banditry, kidnaping etc, so it becomes imperative for one to count on God for daily safety. It's my prayer that God Almighty will continue to secure us in all and in everything and in everywhere we go Amen.

Anjade lo leni eledumare

We are going out today our maker

Anjade lo loni eledumare

We are going out today, our maker

Jijade wa kama pade agbako

As we go out, may we not meet any bad luck/Evil

jijade wa kama pade agbako

As we go out, may we not meet any bad luck/Evil

Oun ta o je la nwa lo baba

Father, It's what we will eat that we are looking for

Ka ma pade oun ti o je wa

May we not meet with what will eat us

Oun ta o je la nwa lo baba

Father, it's what we will eat that we are looking for

Ka ma pade oun ti o je wa

May we not meet with what will eat us

Hello everyone, welcome to Afritunes community week 119. My name is Danrabs and I'm very glad to be here. I like to kindly bring to your notice that this is my first post here and I do hope you will understand and pardon my mistakes and error here. But I'm very open to corrections and learn. I consider it a great pleasure to be here with you this week. I hope the week is being very blessfull for us all.

I will be doing a cover of a song title: Ijoba Orùn by Lara George. Ijoba Orùn is a Yoruba phrase which could be translated thus; "Heavenly Throne"

Lara George, is a Nigerian gospel singer and songwriter. The song is one of the most popular Yoruba gospel songs in Nigeria and Africa at large and it's known for its powerful and uplifting of souls spiritually and "lyrically". "Ijoba Orun" is one of her most beloved and hit songs.

I have carefully considered and chosen this song because of it great spiritual significant to me as a Christian. You know, sometimes, it very possible for one to deray from his/her track as regards to the heavenly race, sometimes, we allow the things of the world to becloud our minds not even knowing or realizing that these things we fight, shortchanged, oppress and even go as far as killing people just to acquire can't even take us anywhere.

This beautiful song also rings a bell to our minds that the whole world is full of vanity. One part of the song that stroke me the most as we will see in the lyrics is that part of the song which says " the money, cars, friends and even the education that we have acquired thus far, cannot even take me home (heaven)". Each time I sing or listen to this song, it calls for a sober reflection and personal introspect. Now am sure this is already giving you reasons to to appreciate and love the song the more. enjoy...
