A Hymn: Speak Like God's Oracle
Singing and composing hymns and other songs have been part of my life since my teenage days
Composer's Foreword
I do not know how to put my composed words into tonic solfa format, but having learnt however remotely how to compose songs using local Yoruba format, I decide to come with a work around on how to make my songs internationally acceptable, therefore, I have been mimicking some hymns which I believe anyone who knows how to sing such hymn globally would be able to sing along with me my composed song using the tune that I have used beneath.
Having said this, I sincerely invite you to join me in singing this newly composed song, because I know music yea songs is one of the things that makes heart merry lifting hearts out of the cauldron of darkness that the enemies may have subjected people to and draws heart closer to God and his blessings.
Praying, hoping and trusting that you will be blessed with the song as you sing along with me and if you do not know the tune, I sincerely trust that God will bless your hearts, homes and all that is yours as you read the wordings of the newly composed song.
Composed Hymn
1. Let anyone who speaks the word of God
Speak as though God's on earth speaking
Let God also speak through your mouth
Speak like God's Oracle
Refrain/Chorus
Speak like God's oracle/2x
Even so that in everything we do
God will be glorified
2. Know ye that the truth cannot be usurped
Though lie may prevail even for a while
But the truth will be known 'ven one day
Speak like God's oracle
Chorus
3. Join ye not the multitudes to do evil
Do not join them to tell lie around
For the Almighty is counting on you
Speak like God's Oracle
Chorus
4. Ye are Yahweh's ambassadors on earth
Ye are His voice and his Mouth also on earth
He expects you to speak truth alway
Speak like God's Oracle
Chorus
5. Whatsoever it is that you 'll say
Utter them in the name of Jesus
By whom you should give praise to God
Speak like God's oracle
Chorus
6. The oracles of God must not be abusing
They neither should curse nor be slanderer
They should be true representatives of God
Speak like God's Oracle
Chorus
