“Oluwa” — Nathaniel Bassey feat. Sunmisola Agbebi

Renowned gospel minister and worship leader Nathaniel Bassey returns with another soul soothing worship anthem titled “OLUWA,” featuring powerhouse vocalist and worship leader Sunmisola Agbebi. Serving as the second track off his 2026 album “The Glory Of His Presence,” “OLUWA” stands as a heartfelt song of adoration and reverence to God Almighty, declaring with simple yet profound conviction that there is none like Him.

The title “Oluwa,” a Yoruba word meaning Lord, immediately sets the spiritual tone of the song. From the opening lines, “Oluwa, Koseni todabire, Koseni todabire, Koseni todabire,” the song anchors listeners in a powerful declaration that no one compares to God in glory, power, love, and faithfulness. The repetition of this phrase is not merely musical but devotional, drawing worshippers into a meditative atmosphere where the greatness of God is exalted again and again.

Nathaniel Bassey describes the heart behind the song in his own words, saying, “This is a love song to Abba. The one who loves us with an everlasting love.” That intimate perspective is deeply felt throughout the track. “OLUWA” does not rush its message. Instead, it gently unfolds like a prayer, inviting listeners to linger in gratitude and awe. The song’s creative uniqueness shines through as Bassey approaches the sound with a warm jazz feel, layered with harmonious backup vocals and melodious instrumentation that give it a timeless and soothing quality.

Sunmisola Agbebi’s vocal presence adds emotional depth and spiritual intensity to the record. Her rich, expressive delivery blends seamlessly with Bassey’s reverent style, creating a worship moment that feels both personal and communal. Together, they lead listeners into a confession of love and surrender, echoing the lyrics, “Wonderful Father, You are so Holy, And there is no one like you, Like you.” These lines reaffirm the holiness of God and the unmatched nature of His character, grounding the song in pure worship rather than performance.

The declaration continues with “We live to worship you, We live to love you, But your love is the greatest,” a simple yet powerful testimony that captures the essence of Christian devotion. It reflects a life oriented around worship and love for God, while humbly acknowledging that His love surpasses all human expression. This lyrical progression transforms “OLUWA” into more than just a song, it becomes a spiritual offering of praise and affection to the Father.

Musically, the jazz inspired arrangement, soft rhythms, and gentle melodies create an atmosphere of calm reverence. Every note feels intentional, designed to support the message of intimacy and devotion. Rather than overwhelming the listener, the production invites quiet reflection, making the song suitable for personal prayer moments, worship gatherings, and contemplative listening.
