After the release of four well-received singles, music minister, Dr. John Mo rounds off the year with the release of a new single titled “Jesus Is The King” featuring songstress, Tessy Praise.
Produced by Soji Adesola, the song “Jesus Is The King” essentially passes the simple message that Jesus – the Saviour of the world, is the King of all kings. The song talks about Jesus’ unending kingship and rulership that transcend generations and the universe, recalling His love and goodness towards man. The songwriter expresses this message in English and three Nigerian languages in such a manner that you cannot afford to resist the groove and melody of the song.
The song was deeply inspired by the Holy Ghost in the thought of a song to speak about the lordship of Jesus Christ over all men, other gods and kings ever seen, known or that will be. Though the song is not seasonal as it has this ever-true message, it is however a sweet melodious tune for a Christmas season.
“Jesus Is The King” is an inspired song in time to bless the listeners and impact their lives. And so shall it be!
