Onise Iyanu means ‘God of awesome wonders.’ Nathaniel Bassey totally nailed it on this song.

With over 16 million views, the song has gone beyond Africa. Nathaniel Bassey Said, "Our God is truly a God of awesome wonders whom none can fathom. He is the ONISE IYANU !!! "

6. Nathaniel Bassey - I've come to worship

This song has been dubbed refreshing and uplifting worth sharing, a song somber in color, incorporating full strings, acoustic piano cover with an top line electric piano. A worship song with a serious conveyance of surrender and adoration to God. The melodic line is repetitive to enable worshippers focus on God.

7. Adeyinka Alaseyori - Arojinle (Deep Thought)

"Arojinle is an intense worship song that reveals the numerous goodness of God to mankind, many of which we take lightly or look at as insignificant" She notes on her YouTube page.
