Nathaniel Bassey - Awamaridi Lyrics

You are the beginning and ending Alpha and Omega You seated in the circle of the earth You are the God who made the universe Out of void and emptiness You spoke the word and it fell into place You're deeper than my mind can grasp and what my eyes can see Eternity won't be enough to tell of you As long as I've got breath in me, and through the great beyond I'll declare the greatness of your name

Awamaridi, awamaridi, ooh You are mystery Reveal to me your own So I've come to worship you I've come to worship you

The heavens of the heavens cannot contain your majesty And yet you made my heart your dwelling place I find it hard to understand, the reason for this kind of love For mortal man who sometimes doesn't care

You took the journey to the cross, and never looking back You died the sinners' death so I can live again If this is not the greatest love, I wonder what is It can only take a God who is like you... Jesus

Awamaridi, (Awamaridi) awamaridi, ooh You are a mystery, (You are a mystery) reveal to me your own Awamaridi, (Awamaridi) awamaridi, are you Awamaridi, (Awamaridi) awamaridi, are you

So I've come to worship you (Awanaridi) I've come to worship you (Awanaridi) Cause I live to worship you (Awanaridi) I live to worship you (Awanaridi) ooh

Awamaridi, Awamaridi, Awamaridi ooh Awamaridi, you're a mystery, reveal to me your own

[Tongues]
Father God, we worship you

[YORUBA CHANTS MEANING Mysterious and Unsearchable One We have searched we have not seen the end of You Mysterious and Unsearchable One The one we cannot fully examine/comprehend The Light in the midst of gross darkness The One whose end we cannot fathom You are the Mysterious and Unsearchable One That is Your Name You make thunder roll You stir the waters of the Sea The Word that became flesh and dwelt among us The Rock that is higher and we cannot see over We see the works of your hands Who can search The Unsearchable The One nobody can measure up to Mysterious and Unsearchable One

I honour you]
