Verse 1
Ogbogu dikwa tight
Ma na Jesus ayi bu onye nmeri
Eze Jesus nokwa na ogbogu oh
Opara chineke inokwanu na ogbogu
Umuchineke bile ayinona aha
Ayino na aha ma na ahuja ima ni me
Aha iyi na,ebu obugi aha onu ahu
Kama obu aha ime nmuo
Imegide ekwensu na ndi oruya
Megide ekwensu na ndi nile na agara ya ozi
Eze Jesus nokwa nu na ogbogu
Opara chineke inokwanu na ogbogu
Nmuo kammuo ibatago na ogbogu
Ebube eligwe inokwanu na ogbogu
Ndi aha eligwe nokwanu na ogbogu
Angel Michael inokwanu na ogbogu
Ebube nbaraigwe isokwanu na gaogu

Aha Nile agagi eri isimuo
Eze Jesus nokwa na ogbogu
Eze Jesus nona ogbo

Meaning & Inspiration
Ogbo Ogu is a spiritual warfare song that mixes Igbo with English declarations. The Igbo lines repeatedly say that King Jesus is in the battle or stronghold, and call on the children of God to stand, and the English lines declare "For He that is in me is greater than him that is in the world" and that the singer dwells in the secret place of the Most High, under the shadow of the Almighty.
Other declarations include "Touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm," "My head is not for sacrifice," and "I am made in the image of God," which are used as statements of protection. Because much of the text is in Igbo, this description sticks to the English lines and the repeated references to Jesus. The English phrases come from 1 John 4:4, Psalm 91:1, Psalm 105:15 and Genesis 1:27. The chant-like repetition suits a lively congregation.
