Indigenous Yoruba gospel singer, Funke Bada churns out a new song and video titled “Olorun Anu” produced by Ihp/Funke Bada.
The song which translates as “God of Mercy” in English and presented in the Yoruba language [a language predominantly spoken in the western part of Nigeria], defines God as a merciful father.
God is merciful and his arms are wide open to receive sinners as stated in Isaiah 59:1-2. All you need do is acknowledge your sins, ask for forgiveness and forsake them all (chronicles 7:14).
His blood was shed for the remission of our sins and this blood remains forever potent to wash our sins away.
This song also talks about the mercy of God, no one can get to the top without the mercy of God.
