Nigerian saxophonist, Uwem Owo releases a new single featuring Victor Iko. He titles this new release “SAFE”.
According to the artist, “SAFE is a song you’ll like to listen to before you step out of your homes every day, while you are driving or when you hear bad news about insecurity challenges locally or globally. This song was written during the global COVID 19 pandemic in the fall of 2020.
God’s word came to me ‘I have a firm grip on you’ and those words were the bedrock of this musical piece. Regardless of my location and circumstances, God said ‘I HAVE A FIRM GRIP ON YOU’”.
Knowing that you are safe in God’s hands brings so much joy and warmth that can not be described. The assurance of divine protection from all forms of evil! (Psalm 91).
There is a hand that can shield you from every attack of the enemy – The Mighty Hand of God! More so, God never promised us a world without chaos, sicknesses, diseases, war etc!
But scriptures says “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High, shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty!” This connotes divine coverage.
And when God got your back, the rest is history! Listen and be blessed.
LYRICS
It won’t come near you
nothing will harm you
you’re safe in God’s hands
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
(Repeat)
Your life is hidden
with Christ in God
and now you’re living
Under his wings
He watches over you
Never slumbers
His eyes are always
Always on you

Your life is hidden
with Christ in God
and now you’re living
Under his wings
He watches over you
Never slumbers
His eyes are always on you
