EVERGREEN HYMNS
I love Hymns – they are deep words that refresh the soul. Here is a compilation of my favorite hymns. Stay tuned as I update the list from time to time.
Gbogbo eyin ti ngbe aye
1 Gbogbo eyin ti ngbe aye
E f ayo korin s’Oluwa;
F’iberu sin, e yin l’ogo
E wa s’odo Re, k’e si yo.
2 Oluwa, On ni Qlorun,
Laisi ’ranwo wa O da wa;
Agbo Re ni wa, O mbo wa;
O si fi wa s’agutan Re.
3 Nje, f’iyin wo ile Re wa
F’ayo sunmo agbala Re;
Yin, k’e bukun oruko Re,
’Tori o ye be lati se.
4 Ese! rere l’Olorun wa,
Anu Re o wa titi lae,
Oto Re ko fi ’gbakan ye,
O duro lat’ irandiran.
Amin.
All people that on earth do dwell
1 All people that on earth do dwell,
Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice,
Him serve with mirth, His praise forthtell;
Come ye before Him and rejoice.
- Know that the Lord is God indeed;
Without our aid He did us make;
We are His flock, He doth us feed, And for His sheep he doth us take.
- Oh enter then His gates with praise,
Approach with joy His courts unto;
Praise, Laud, and bless His name always,
For it is seemly so to do.
- For Why? The Lord our God is good;
His mercy is forever sure;
His truth at all times firmly stood,
And shall from age to age endure.
