Lyrics
Verse 1
Heaven is open over me
Countless blessing overflowing
Countless miracles,
Countless testimonies
Shower everywhere for me
Abundance of grace,
Abundance of grace
(How can I describe
What you’ve done for me)
Chorus
Amanamo (You have done me well)
Amanamo (You have done me well)
Eyen’abasi (Son of God)
Amanamo Oh
Amanamo, Amanamo
Eyen’abasi
Amanamo Oh
Verse 2
You are beyond
Human comprehension
Words are inadequate
To express who you are
Who can calculate
The dust of the air
Who can measure
The waters of the sea
Who can measure
The sand of the sea shore
Who can number
The hairs on my head
Who can phantom
The wonders of your love
Who am I, who am I
That you are mindful of me
Chorus (Repeat)
Amanamo, Amanamo
Eyen’abasi
Amanamo Oh
Amanamo, Amanamo
Eyen’abasi
Amanamo Oh
Verse 3
What my mama cannot do
What my papa cannot do
What money cannot buy
You have done for me
What doctors couldn’t have done
You have done for me
Generous Baba (Generous Baba)
Chorus (Repeat)
Amanamo, Amanamo
Eyen’abasi
Amanamo Oh
Amanamo, Amanamo
Eyen’abasi
Amanamo Oh

Meaning & Inspiration
“Amanamo (You Have Done Me Well)” by Chris Morgan and Mercy Chinwo is a song of thanks for God’s generosity. It opens with heaven open over the singer and blessings, miracles, and testimonies overflowing, and asks, “How can I describe what You’ve done for me?” The chorus gives the answer in the refrain “Amanamo,” glossed in the lyric as “You have done me well,” and “Eyen’abasi,” glossed as “Son of God.”
The verse says that God is beyond human comprehension and that words cannot say who He is. A chain of questions asks who can calculate the dust, measure the waters of the sea, count the sand on the shore, or number the hairs on a head. That reasoning is close to Isaiah 40:12 and Luke 12:7, and the question “Who am I that You are mindful of me?” echoes Psalm 8:4.
The final section lists what parents, money, and doctors could not do, which God has done. The message is amazed gratitude for a Father whose care exceeds measure.
