Manus Akpanke + Dunsin Oyekan - You Are My God Lyrics

“You’re My God” uses short, repeated declarations to express open allegiance to God. The opening names God as defender, comforter, sustainer, and giver of joy, establishing the reasons for the refrain. Repeating “You’re my God” makes the central confession unmistakable, while “I am proud of you” conveys an unashamed willingness to be identified with him.

The later lines extend that confession beyond private devotion. Singing, speaking, living, and going “everywhere” suggest that acknowledgment of God should shape both words and conduct in every setting. Psalm 18:2 closely matches the song’s description of God as defender, and 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 supports its language of divine comfort. Romans 1:16 also provides a fitting connection to the refusal to be ashamed of faith. The lyric remains simple and repetitive, but that simplicity serves its worshipful purpose: God’s character is named, belonging is affirmed, and public witness follows from that relationship.
