I'm looking down at the world from 24,000 feet
And the beauty makes me wonder why anyone will ever doubt
That somebody made the world and everything beautiful

The song "There is a God" by Adekunle Gold is a deep reflection of the wonders of God and the power of faith. The opening lines depict a situation where a woman is said to be barren but then becomes pregnant, despite the medical diagnosis indicating otherwise. It mirrors the unexplainable works of divinity that manifests in our daily lives. The song continues to emphasize the doubt in the existence of God held by some, with the use of Yoruba proverbs like "Alagidi o ni kosolorun" and "Arindin o ni kosolorun," which translate to "the stubborn flies do not agree that there is a God."
The lyrics provide a view from an elevated height of 24,000 feet, where the beauty of God's creation leaves one in awe of the existence of a higher power. The artist, through his lyrics, tries to awaken the consciousness of listeners to the fact that there is a God who resides in the heavens and also lives within us. The song concludes with an enthusiastic repetition of the phrase "There is a God" to drive home the message of the song.
In summary, the song "There is a God" by Adekunle Gold is an affirmation of the power of faith and the wonders of God. It encourages people to believe in God despite the challenges they might be facing and draws attention to the beauty of the world, which is evident in God's creation.

I love this song.
But I still feel there's so much more that can be brought out from this song.
I won't be surprised to see other versions released by Oga Adekunle Gold.
Like full Hard Rock or Jazz or Classical or even folk.
Sooooo much about this song.
#JustThinking.
Beautiful Masterpiece.

I was listening to random naija music cos it is my birthday doing my shakushaku and then something brought me to this song by Adekunle Gold. Now my dancing has stopped because something just hit me hard in this song that there's a God that has kept me this long, I lost my father @ age 5, lost mother @ age 21, I am here crying now because truly there's a God. 😔
