Lyrics: Awamaridi By Nathaniel Bassey Ft. Tomi Favored & Tope Alabi
Tomi Favoured:
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 got breathe in me, and through the great beyond
I’ll declare the greatness of your name
Chorus:
Awamaridi, awamaridi, ooh…
You are a mystery reveals to me your own
So I’ve come to worship you
I’ve come to worship you
Nathaniel Bassey:
The heavens after 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 men who sometimes doesn’t care
Tomi Favoured & Nathaniel Bassey:
You took the journey to the cross, and never looking back
You die 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
Chorus:
Awamaridi, awamaridi, ooh…
You are a mystery reveals to me your own
So I’ve come to worship you
I’ve come to worship you
‘Cause I live to worship you
I live to worship you
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
The Beginning whose End we cannot fathom
The Middle that has no end
The End that no one can know
Mysterious and Unsearchable One
You are Lord
You are God of Heaven
You are Friend, Defender, Protector
The one whose hands created the earth
I’m in awe of You
Your love abounds in the earth
Who can search Your end
You are too much
Mysterious and Unsearchable One
