You may ask; who is Igwe? The bible made us to know that those who know their God is a tree planted besides the river, as it flourishes in season and out of season. Our God is the King(Igwe) of kings, the Lord of lords and He’s ever present to hear our cry as His subjects.
Igwe is a gospel song by Midnight Crew, a Nigerian gospel group. The word Igwe means “King” in Nigerian-Igbo language.
This song is a joyful celebration of God’s greatness, declaring that He is the highest King who rules over everything. It is a song of worship and thanksgiving, giving honor to God for His love, power, and faithfulness.
The lyrics focus on praising God for who He is and all that He has done. The song acknowledges that God is the King of kings and there is no one like Him.
It expresses deep gratitude for His protection, blessings, and mercy. The singers joyfully declare that only God deserves all praise because He is the ruler of the universe.
One of the key messages in Igwe is thanksgiving. The song encourages people to always give thanks to God, no matter their situation. It reminds listeners that every good thing in life comes from Him and He deserves to be praised every day.
Another important theme in the song is God’s faithfulness. The lyrics acknowledge that God never changes, He is the same yesterday, today and forever.
No matter what happens, His love remains constant. This message encourages believers to trust in Him completely because He never fails.
The song also emphasizes the power of worship. It teaches that praising God brings joy, peace and blessings. The lyrics invite everyone to lift their voices and dance in honor of God, celebrating His goodness with a grateful heart.
In addition, Igwe talks about unity in worship. It brings people from different backgrounds together to praise God in different languages. This reflects the idea that God is the King of all people and everyone can come together to worship Him.
In my conclusion, Igwe is a song of praise, joy and thanksgiving. It reminds believers of God’s greatness, encourages them to trust in His faithfulness, and inspires them to worship Him with all their hearts.
It powerful lyrics and lively music make it a timeless song of gratitude and celebration, strengthening faith and bringing people closer to God. Our God is IGWE!!!
