Repent Jesus is coming soon!

Overall Meaning

The song "Som No Yie" by Esther Smith is a call to repentance and preparation for the imminent return of Jesus Christ. The lyrics are in the Twi language, which is spoken in Ghana. The opening lines "Most Baby Face, Esther Smith, Jesus is coming yaoo" suggest that the singer acknowledges the coming of Jesus Christ, and is prepared to appeal to her audience to turn from their sins and repent.


The chorus "Som no yiyie" is repeated throughout the song, with the singer speaking to different groups of people such as pastors, doctors, nurses, lawyers, and musicians, urging them to seek salvation before the arrival of Jesus Christ. The different professions mentioned indicate that the call to repentance is for everyone, and that no one is exempt from this.


The song draws from a passage in the Bible, where John the Baptist calls out to people to "repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near" (Matthew 3:2). It also emphasizes the need for people to live according to the teachings of Jesus Christ, and to be ready for His return.
