In Terry G's song "God Guide Me", the artist appeals to God to protect and guide him in whatever he does and wherever he goes. He acknowledges God as the one who covers him with his hand and he sings praises to Him. Terry G mentions that he knows there are people who want to harm him, but he calls on God to prevent them from doing so. He pleads with God not to let them "fall his hand". This phrase is a colloquialism that means not to disappoint or let someone down.
Throughout the song, Terry G uses a mix of pidgin English and Yoruba language to express himself. Pidgin English is a creole language that has evolved over time in Nigeria and is a mixture of English and other Nigerian languages. Yoruba is a language spoken by the Yoruba people in Nigeria, Benin, and Togo.
The song's message centers around Terry G's reliance on God, recognizing His sovereignty, and acknowledging His protection in the midst of life's challenges. It is a common theme that is found in many African gospel songs that emphasize faith, hope, and perseverance in the face of adversity.
