Happy new week to everyone @afri-tunes community, I'm @fab-tay and I'm glad to welcome us all to this Afri-tunes week 104 which is another time to enjoy music of African origin and I'm honoured to share music with great people here. Afritunes community has been known for bringing African Music to the frontline/limelight and this is highly commendable and i say kudos to the Afritunes team.
For this afri-tunes week 104, i will be doing the cover of one of my favorite song in the past few years which is "BEYOND ME" BY YADAH. This is a song of appreciation to God for His benevolence in dealing with us as humans not according to our transgressions, failures or anything else, but on the basis of God's love, mercy we have received which God lavished on us graciously even when we don't deserve it.
This song shows us that "God is not a man" and His dealings with us is not according to how we humans deal with eachother but according to God's nature of love, mercy, kindness, benevolence even when we don't deserve it and we can't work for it or earn it or merit it, He just chosed to which should be how we ought to one to each other. I picked this song so as to encourage and inspire someone out there feeling rejected, unloved, unworthy or hurt based on past experiences, dealings or affairs that God is always there to accept and doesn't castigate or judge based on that because He knows we are humans and is ready to accept us if only we can look to Him. This song points to the overwhelming love and mercy of God which is available for us all if only we can look to Him and return/call upon His name. Yadah is a strong woman vocalist whose songs has been inspiring following her life encounters and her songs is well known and sang all over. I did this cover using both vocal🗣️ and the piano 🎹 instrumentation with the loop of the song. Thank you all.
LYRICS
"BEYOND ME"
You looked past my sin, my guilt, my shame and poured your love
You looked beyond me, oh
You looked beyond me, oh
And I'm the one that You have shown mercy
You have shown me mercy
You have shown me mercy
