Eyin L'ogo Ye by Cornelius Ogar — Lyrics
About Eyin L'ogo Ye
"Eyin L'ogo Ye" is a vibrant Yoruba song of praise and thanksgiving composed by Cornelius Ogar. The title translates to "You are worthy of glory," setting the tone for a piece entirely focused on exalting God's supreme majesty. The lyrics acknowledge the Lord as the Alpha and Omega ("Ibere ati opin") and the Ancient of Days ("Arugbo ọjọ"), marveling at a love so deep that the Creator would step down from a throne of glory to justify humanity.
In the choir loft, this piece shines during moments of joyful thanksgiving, such as the Offertory or as a lively Recessional hymn. The arrangement features a beautiful call-and-response section where a tenor soloist expresses personal gratitude ("Mee le ṣai dupẹ ore rẹ si mi"), to which the full choir responds by bowing in collective thanks. It builds to a powerful climax praising the Holy Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—leaving the congregation uplifted and ready to carry that spirit of praise out into the world.
