This is Hive Open Mic Week #271, my name remains @mamab on the platform. It's another exciting moment to share love and belongingness on hive through music. Beautiful salute to the admins, moderators and everyone who is contributing in one way or the other to the growth of the community.

This week we are looking at the theme "the mountain". I will be singing the cover of a hymn from the hymnal titled "I'm pressing on the upward way". I believe mountain is a relative term, it means different things to different people. In my interpretation for the week, mountain is seen as the top where good things abound. It is God's desire that we enjoy the goodness of life, but most times the enjoyment does not just come until you rise up to responsibilities and work. Our blessings easily flow through the work we do.

We are meant for the mountain not the valley. May God grant us the grace to keep climbing until we get to the top.

Lyrics

1 I’m pressing on the upward way,

New heights I’m gaining every day;

Still praying as I onward bound,

“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Lord, lift me up, and let me stand

By faith on Canaan’s tableland;

A higher plane than I have found,

Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

2 My heart has no desire to stay

Where doubts arise and fears dismay;

Though some may dwell where these abound,

My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

3 I want to live above the world,

Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;

For faith has caught the joyful sound,

The song of saints on higher ground.

4 I want to scale the utmost height

And catch a gleam of glory bright;

But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found,

“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”

Claro, aquí tienes la traducción al español de tu publicación para Hive Open Mic Week #271:

Esta es la Semana #271 de Hive Open Mic, mi nombre sigue siendo @mamab en la plataforma. Es otro momento emocionante para compartir amor y sentido de pertenencia en Hive a través de la música. Un hermoso saludo a los administradores, moderadores y a todos los que están contribuyendo de una forma u otra al crecimiento de la comunidad.

Esta semana estamos reflexionando sobre el tema "la montaña". Estaré cantando la versión de un himno del himnario titulado "Estoy subiendo a lo alto" (en inglés "I'm pressing on the upward way"). Creo que la montaña es un término relativo, significa cosas distintas para diferentes personas. En mi interpretación de esta semana, la montaña representa la cima donde abundan cosas buenas. Es el deseo de Dios que disfrutemos de lo bueno de la vida, pero la mayoría de las veces ese disfrute no llega hasta que asumimos responsabilidades y trabajamos. Nuestras bendiciones suelen fluir a través del trabajo que realizamos.

Estamos hechos para la montaña, no para el valle. Que Dios nos conceda la gracia de seguir escalando hasta llegar a la cima.

Letra

Estoy subiendo a lo alto,

Cada día más cerca estoy;

Sigo orando en mi caminar:

“Señor, pon mis pies en lo alto ya.”

Coro:

Señor, levántame y déjame estar

Por fe en Canaán, en su bello lugar;

Más alto que antes quiero estar,

Señor, pon mis pies en lo alto ya.

No quiero estar donde hay temor,

Donde la duda causa dolor;

Aunque otros allí quieran morar,

Mi anhelo es más alto llegar.

Quiero vivir por encima del mal,

Aunque me ataque el dardo infernal;

La fe me da canción celestial,

La voz de santos en lo eternal.

Quiero escalar la altura final

Y ver un rayo de gloria eternal;

Y mientras viva, mi oración será:

“Señor, llévame a la altura ya.”

Hello friends on Afri-tunes community. I welcome you to my blog this week #171. It's an exciting moment to be able to bring my presentation to you. The week is almost over and I struggled with time to record a video, maybe because I don't just want to upload anything that comes my way. Thank God I finally succeeded and did a beautiful cover of a song by Sinach titled "A million tongues". It is a song of thanksgiving to God.

Trying to count the number of words to use to appreciate God for His mercies is out of point. Thanksgiving is one thing that cannot be overemphasized.

Do well to use your tongue with me as we minister this rendition.

Lyrics

A million tongues

Would never be enough

To tell all You have done

With everything within

My very soul

I say thank you Jesus

A million tongues

Would never be enough

To tell all You have done

With everything within

My very soul

I say thank you Jesus

You are faithful, You are good

You are faithful, You are good

You are faithful, You are good

You are faithful, You are good

You have blessed me

More than I dreamed of

You've been so good

More than I can explain

You have blessed me

More than I dreamed of

You've been so good

More than I can explain

I bring to your screen special greetings from my blog. This is Hive Open Mic Week #270 and my name is mamab. Special recognition also goes to our bosses in the community, @jesuslnrs, @fernanblog, @mipiano, @cabelindsay among other amazing moderators.

The theme for the week is "Holy Spirit". When I saw the theme, I was very happy because there are many songs that can easily fit to the person of the Holy Spirit. He is the third person of the Trinity and the comforter.

So, I chose this beautiful old and popular song by Bob Fitts titled "You are my all in all". I can't think of any better description of who the Holy Spirit is than to say He is my all in all. If you are looking for a friend, He is the best to have, so loving and caring. He listens whenever we talk to Him and He responds to our plight.

Let's sing this beautiful song together.

Lyrics

Jesus Lamb of God

Worthy is Your Name

Jesus Lamb of God

Worthy is Your Name

You are my strength when I am weak

You are the treasure that I seek

You are my all in all

Seeking You as a precious jewel

Lord to give up I'd be a fool

You are my all in all

Taking my sin my cross my shame

Rising again I bless Your Name

You are my all in all

When I fall down You pick me up

When I am dry You fill my cup

You are my all in all

Worthy is Your Name

Worthy is Your Name

Les traigo un saludo muy especial desde mi blog. Esta es la Semana #270 del Hive Open Mic y mi nombre es mamab. También quiero hacer un reconocimiento especial a nuestros líderes en la comunidad: @jesuslnrs, @fernanblog, @mipiano, @cabelindsay, entre otros increíbles moderadores.

El tema de esta semana es "Espíritu Santo". Cuando vi el tema, me sentí muy feliz porque hay muchas canciones que pueden encajar fácilmente con la persona del Espíritu Santo. Él es la tercera persona de la Trinidad y nuestro consolador.

Así que elegí esta hermosa y popular canción antigua de Bob Fitts titulada "You Are My All in All". No se me ocurre una mejor descripción de quién es el Espíritu Santo que decir que Él es mi todo en todo. Si estás buscando un amigo, Él es el mejor que puedes tener: tan amoroso y atento. Él nos escucha siempre que le hablamos y responde a nuestras súplicas.

Cantemos juntos esta hermosa canción.

Letra:

Jesús, Cordero de Dios

Digno es Tu Nombre

Jesús, Cordero de Dios

Digno es Tu Nombre

Tú eres mi fuerza cuando soy débil

Eres el tesoro que yo busco

Tú eres mi todo en todo

Te busco como una joya preciosa

Señor, rendirme sería una locura

Tú eres mi todo en todo

Llevaste mi pecado, mi cruz, mi vergüenza

Resucitando de nuevo, bendigo Tu Nombre

Tú eres mi todo en todo

Cuando caigo, Tú me levantas

Cuando estoy seco, Tú llenas mi copa

Tú eres mi todo en todo

Digno es Tu Nombre

Digno es Tu Nombre

Hello lovely community members, this is mamab giving you a warm welcome to my blog this beautiful day. This is Afri-tunes week #170. How is everyone doing in this season so far? I believe God is faithful through all.

On this edition, I chose to present one of the songs that have been ringing on my mind recently by Moses Akoh. It is titled "Volume of the Book". Interestingly, I've never presented any song by this artist before, but I suddenly developed interest on this particular one recently. Maybe it is because of the depth of it's ministration to me personally.

Many times there are beautiful plans that God has in stock for us his children, and sometimes we know those plans but to work according to them could be challenging. I learnt that there is a level of grace you need faith to access. For you to achieve the plans and purposes of God written concerning you, you need the faith to access energy to keep moving no matter the distractions and burdens trying to weigh you down.

The song is a strong declaration of a decision to do the will of God. Charge your faith and let us ride together.

Lyrics

I've come in the volume of the book

It was written about me

to do you will oh God

I will do your will Do your will

Do your will oh God

I've come in the volume of the book

It was written about me

to do you will oh God

I will do your will

Do your will

Do your will oh God

No matter whatever may come my way

I'll follow

I'll follow

I'll follow I'll follow

No matter whatever may come my way

I'll follow

I'll follow

I'll follow

I'll follow

I'll follow

This is Hive Open Mic Week #169, I bring to you special greetings from my personal desk. My name remains mamab on this platform. I am filled with much gladness for the opportunity to participate in the edition for this week. My big salute goes to the leaders of the team for a constant job well done.

The theme is "the last time".

When I saw the theme, it took me a little while to find a song that will align. I kept thinking and calculating until I finally landed on this Hausa Language from Nigeria. It's a long time song by a lady, I have no idea of her name. It is titled "Lokaci fa yayi', which means it is time. The summary of the meaning of the song is - it is time to wake up from our sleep, wake up believers let's work so that God can be happy with us. For he has prepared crowns for the faithful ones, but the lazy ones will be destroyed.

The lyrics are handwritten please.

Lokaci fa yayi

Da zamu falka daga barci

Lokaci fa yayi

Da zamu falka daga barci yanuwa na

Da zamu falka daga barci yanuwa

Da zamu falka daga barci

Falka masubi muyi aiki

Domin Ubangiji ya ji dadin mu

Gama akwai rawani shiryaye

Da za'a ba wadanda sunyi aiki

Domin mai aiki zaya sami lada

Rogo ladanshi lalacewa

Sai mu falka sai mu falka daga barci

Yanuwa na

Sai mu falka daga barci falka

It is an interesting song, you can join me in the rendition.

Afri-tunes community week #169. Hello everyone on my blog today, this is mamab bringing to you my entry. Shout out to all the admins and moderators, I salute the unwavering support and work you do every week here.

On this edition, I chose to do a danceable song titled "Imela" by Solomon Lange. Imela is in Igbo language which means thank you 🙏.

One thing I think I will never exhaust is thanksgiving to God. Before you even tell Him thank you, He does more than you can imagine. As you are telling Him thank you, He is doing much more right into the future. He has put a new song in my mouth to sing daily of His goodness and kindness.

God has caused a turn around from evil to good severally for me. He is truly worthy of all the glory and praise, Imela 🙏.

Sing-along:

Lyrics

There's a new song in my mouth today

A song of praise in my mouth today

You've added another day unto my days

You've added another year unto my years

You pick me from the Mary Cliff

You set me up on a rock to stay

You turn my life around

You put new song in my mouth

Hallelujah hosanna eh yee

Hallelujah hosanna eh yee

Hallelujah hosanna eh yee

Hallelujah hosanna eh yee

Baba you are you worthy of my praise

Imela ooo

Imela ooo

Imela ooo

Adupe oo

Adupe oo

Nagode oo

Nagode oo

Nagode oo

Hello everyone, this is mamab on Vibes Web3 Music Competition Week #35. How are you all doing? The year is far gone already as we have launched into the last month in the first half. I pray the month favours us 🙏.

On this edition, I decided to do the cover of a song by Tim Godfrey featuring IBK, one of his major backup singers. The title is "Victory". When the word victory is mentioned, what comes to mind is success, winning or having a headway. In this song, the victory is the priceless gift of Christ to us through grace. He went to the extra mile to save our wretched soul. He deserves the honour for the immeasurable sacrifice that made us victorious over sin and death.

I cannot take a bow without acknowledging the awesome efforts of the leadership of this community. You guys are doing wonderfully great 👍 @lordbutterfly, @verbal-d, @silentscreamer.

Lyrics

Amazing grace

How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch, a wretch like me

Once I was blind, but now I see

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

Amazing grace

How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch, a wretch like me

Once I was blind, but now I see

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

He has given me victory

I will lift him higher

Oooooh

I will lift him higher

He has given me victory

I will lift him higher

Oooooh

I will lift him higher

A special welcome to everyone on my blog this week of Hive Open Mic week #268. I am your friend mamab. Every week has a fascinating theme and this week is not an exception. Shout out to all the bosses in the house for all they do.

To connect to the theme for the week "My choice", I chose to do so a song titled "I choose the way of Lord" by an anonymous artist. I knew the song right from my secondary school stage but didn't bother to know who composed it until when I tried to search for it online to present. I noticed different versions, so I couldn't place it on one person.

I decided to also come up with my own cover of the song.

Choice as the name implies is something you willingly decide to accept. Choice has to do with the power of self will. This is one of the gifts that God gave to mankind, he doesn't force us to do or accept anything, He allows us to use our freedom and decide or choose what we want.

It is very important to always remember that every choice comes with a consequence. The song I chose says the way of the Lord is the way of wisdom so I choose the way of the Lord. There are many ways to different spheres of life in this world, but no way is as pure, holy and peaceful as the way of the Lord. The Bible says the name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous run into it and are safe.

Enjoy this beautiful vibe.

I bring to you special greetings on the Afri-tunes community, a place of expression of music in the African style. Welcome to week #166 and my name is mamab. It is amazing to always sleep and wake up to face the activities of life.

Today I did the cover of a song by Tim Godfrey, a popular Nigerian gospel music minister known for his energy in singing and also featuring people. The title of the song is "Surely". The song is a prayer of goodness and mercy to follow us everyday and every time. I bet you will suffer in this life if they don't follow you. The life of victory is the life of favour and blessings. Imagine doing little and getting much results, that can only be attributed to the blessings of God.

There is also another declaration in the latter part of the song. It says we are free from every chain and limitations. In Christ we are truly free.

Let's join to declare together through this song.

Lyrics

Surely goodness, mercy

Favor, blessings shall follow me

Follow me on my days (sing again surely goodness)

Surely goodness, mercy

Favor, blessings shall follow me

Follow me on my days (follow on my)

Surely goodness, mercy (surely goodness, mercy)

Favor, blessings shall follow me (favor, blessings shall follow me)

(Follow me) Follow me on my days

I love this part, I love eh

No more limitations

Chains are breaking

Now, I am free

No more limitations

Chains are breaking

Now, I am free

Sing it no more, no more

No more limitations

Chains are breaking

Now, I am free (I am free)

Welcome to Hive Open Mic Week #266, I am your friend mamab on hive. This is another exciting week where we are encouraged to share on "Gift to mom". I want to acknowledge the admins and moderators of this beautiful platform for selecting exciting themes for us every week.

Moms are wonderful beings. Dads are great too but today we are focusing on moms, maybe because women are moved a lot when they are celebrated and appreciated. Moms go through a lot to keep the family in a conducive atmosphere. Beginning from leaving one's father's house with beautiful goodies and siblings in the name of getting married is already a great move. Talking about carrying pregnancy, going to the delivery room, breastfeeding and raising the kids is a whole lot.

Moms experience sleepless nights many times because of the kids. There is no amount of gift that can be enough to appreciate them. But that does not mean it should just become an empty slogan because there are quite a number of things one can do for his mom.

As you grow in life and become a reasonable person, you need to look back and let your mom feel your impact. You can send cash gifts no matter how little, you can buy some clothes and wrappers time to time.

When you have plenty money build a house, buy a car and get her house helps around the house.

For today, I will be singing an old song we used to sing in our church choir during mother's day titled "Mama". I don't know who composed it but I know you will like it.

Enjoy my cover.
