When was the last time you heard a banging Gospel reggae song that is groovy and soothing at the same time? Those are some of the qualities of the debut single “Take Your Place” by Malaysian-based Nigerian Christian music recording artist Thonian Wek.
Take Your Place is a song dedicated to the Almighty and marks a befitting entry tune for Thonian Wek whose journey into music was always going to happen according to the singer’s admission.
Take Your Place is a song about a Christian’s longing to commune with the Father; ” Lord as we have gathered here, we please for Your holy presence…”. The lyrics maintain this stance throughout the song as Thonian Wek takes the listener deeper into the realms of fellowship. A very strong debut offering in every sense.
The song is written and composed by Thonian Wek while the production was handled by Newman Spring Records.
Take Your Place is also the first single off Thonian Week’s debut album; Jesus My Pedigree which drops very early in 2022. It promises to be an exciting body of work.
LYRICS
FIRST SOLO
Lord as we have gathered here
We plead for your holy presence
As we bow and knees and sing
We want to smell your fragrance
And we bow our heads to you
As we lift up holy hands
We cry aloud oh Lord
Let your glory feel the earth
We’re here to worship just with you Lord our maker
Cuz where there brethren gather Lord
You’re there in their midst
CHORUS
So have your way
Holy ghost we surrender..
Take your place
Jesus take all over ..
(Repeat 3×)
SECOND SOLO
When you hear our voice
Spirit come with mighty auntion
Fill us up oh God
With your power and your word..
Receive this worship Lord
From your daughters and your sons
Holy master we sing to you from a holy ground
Endue us Lord as we speak in tongues
Abba Father
Coz where the brethren gather Lord
You’re there in their mist
Then Repeat Chorus as many time
