LYRICS!
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
Ame Dode ubong ye ekom ye itoro
Despised and rejected
cursed and afflicted
Bruised and refused
and abused
yet his will hasn’t broken
evil were spoken
saviour to the people
treated like a criminal
prayed to God for miracles
that’s who he chose for his chisen
yes he was chosen
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
Ame dode ubong ye ekom
ye itoro 2x
can’t imagine what you went through
for what you didn’t do
this love is true
you took the fall
My life, my love
for me…
chose to be called the son of man
yet you are the son of God
Crown you with crown of thorns
by your blood we’ve been forgiven
yes we’re forgiven
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
amanam utibe nkpo
bor itoro
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
Ekondo ke bub fi oh
Amedode ubong ye ekom
Ye itoro
Nye dad esit me nkwo
Nye Benede ubok me nkwo
Omor dode ubong ye ekom
Ye itoro….
I will sing from my heart
lift my hands to you
you are worthy of my praise
And my song…..
