Ẹ jẹ ka jumọ f'ọpẹ f'Ọlorun 
Orin iyin, at'ọpẹ lo yẹ wa

Chorus:  
Halleluyah! Ogo ni fun Baba  
A f'ijo ilu yin Ọlọrun wa  
Alaye ni o yin Ọ bo ti yẹ  
Halleluyah! Ogo ni fun Baba   

Ki l'a fi san j'awọn t'iku ti pa?  
Iwọ lo f'ọwọ wọ wa di oni

Ẹ kọrin 'yin s'Olutọju wa 
  
Ohun wa ko dun to lati kọrin

Let us give thanks to God together
Songs of praises and thanks are befitting
Marvelous is Your love to all of us
Oh sing praises to our Gracious King

Chorus:
Hallelujah! Glory to the Father
We praise our God with dances and drums
Only the living will praise you properly
Hallelujah! Glory to the Father

How are we better than those who are no more?
It is You that have kept us till today
You keep us and You save us from evil
Sing praises to our Benefactor 

Our voices are not sweet enough to sing
Our mouths aren't wide enough to give You thanks
Even if we all have a thousand tongues each
They are too small to exalt Your honour.

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.” Refrain: 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. 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 gr...
