Nigerian gospel singer and songwriter Oyedare Oluwafemi professionally known as Femi Oyeh, who hails from Osun state is a graduate of Biochemistry from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife (OAU). He returns with a beautiful tune in Igbo language titled AFURUMGINANYA.
The song was inspired by the Holy-spirit from the book of Isaiah 53:4-6. It talks about the love of God for humanity and the provision made unto salvation.
When asked how he was able to sing fluently in Igbo, being a Yoruba man, Femi Oyeh responds,
“As a Yoruba man, learning some few words in Igbo language was a bit tasking but not so difficult, my Ibo friend helped with some and i also did a little bit of google-ing.”
The track was produced by Waxywax. The lyrics are also available below:
LYRICS TO AFURUMGINANYA:
Solo 1
Chukwu obim oo
Your love dey make me wonder
Your love sweet pasi sugar
Your love don make me whole
Even when I was lost
You die to bring me back
You took away my pains
You put it on yourself

Which kind love be this
You die for me to live
The blood shed on the cross
Salvation is assured
Plenty plenty lashes of cane oo
My sickness disappeared
You turn my pains to gains
You turn my shame to fame
Wetin I go give you papa

Bridge:
Wounded for your son’s
Chastisement for your peace
He’ll surely borne your grief
He’s here to set you free
Even though he was rich
He became poor for your sake
What manner of love is this
Baba bestowed on us.
Response:
You too love me oh
You bless me oh
Baba o e see
Na so you love me oh
O toju mi baba o a dupe.
