Ada Ehi - I Will Sing Lyrics
Lyrics
I will sing
For the Joy of the lord
Has now become my strength
He is my peace
And i am satisfied
He's taken the sorrow
Gave me a new song to sing
For ever i will sing
Oh i will sing
Forever I will sing
Oh I will sing
I will sing and shout of your mercies
I will sing of your beauty
I will sing to the one in when I live
And live eternally
Oh I will sing and shout of your mercies
I will sing of your beauty
I will sing to the one in when I live
And live eternally
Oh I will sing
Oh I will sing
Of your mercies
I will sing
Of your beauty
I will sing
Forever I will sing

Meaning & Inspiration
Ada Ehi's "I Will Sing," released as a single from her 2022 project "I Will Sing (Refreshed)," is a powerful declaration of unwavering faith and gratitude. At its core, the song articulates a profound transformation, moving from a state of sorrow to one of unshakeable joy and peace. The central message is that the "joy of the Lord has now become my strength," a concept deeply rooted in Nehemiah 8:10, which states, "the joy of the Lord is your strength." This single, while presented as a standalone track, encapsulates a theological journey of receiving divine solace and replacing despair with a "new song." This echoes the Psalmist's cry in Psalm 40:3, "He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God." The lyrics, though concise, carry the weight of experiencing God's mercy and beauty firsthand, leading to an eternal commitment to praise.
The song's narrative arc is a testament to the redemptive power of God. Ehi articulates a personal testimony of having sorrow taken away, a vivid depiction of the comfort found in Christ as described in John 14:27: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." The satisfaction expressed is not born of worldly possessions but of spiritual fulfillment, a deep contentment found in God's presence. The repeated affirmation, "I will sing to the one in whom I live and live eternally," speaks to a faith that transcends earthly existence and looks forward to an everlasting communion with the divine. This resonates with the apostle Paul's encouragement in 1 Corinthians 15:58, "Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let the wonderful work of the Lord be always seen in what you do, because you know that your efforts in the Lord will not be in vain." The song's unyielding resolve to sing of mercies and beauty is a direct response to God's unchanging character, as highlighted in Lamentations 3:22-23: "Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." "I Will Sing" serves as an inspiring anthem for anyone who has experienced the liberating power of God's love, encouraging a continuous outpouring of praise as a reflection of that transformed life.
