“Onye Inaputara” is Igbo for “The one you saved”. This song expresses Thanksgiving to God our Father for the great salvation he has given us at no cost, giving his only begotten as a ransom, making the one who knew no sin to be sin so we can become God’s righteousness.
It expresses the freedom the believer has received as he is no longer a slave to sin. The cross of Christ is the inspiration behind this song. I hope it gets everyone to thank our good father who has saved us from the wrath brought by our wrongs.
Lyrics
[Intro]
Onye Ịnapụtara
Na sị gị imela, Imela Papa mo
Onye Ịnapụtara
Na sị gị imela, Imela Papa mo
[Verse 1]
I was one who owed the debt
And I couldn’t Pay
But you gave your Son
To take my Place
So I’d be called your Righteousness
And by this One Sacrifice
You Changed my name
Covered my shame
And now I am your Righteousness
Great is your Salvation
Now I owe no debt
I Sing this Song of Freedom
‘Cause You have Saved
My Soul from death
You have Saved me
You have Delivered me
[Chorus]
Onye Ịnapụtara
Na sị gị imela, Imela Papa mo
Oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh
Onye Ịnapụtara
Na sị gị imela, Imela Papa mo
Oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh
[Chorus- Translation]
The One you Saved
Is saying Thank You
Thank you Father
Onye Inaputara – Yadah Lyrics
[Verse 2]
See the Debtor
Now Walking as a Free Man
See the slave of sin
Now Singing Freedom Song
See Mortal Man
With the Hope of Eternal Life
Just because you gave your Son
See the One Outside
Has Entered Boldly
You have Delivered us
You have Saved us
Great is your Salvation
[Chorus]
Onye Ịnapụtara
Na sị gị imela, Imela Papa mo
Oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh
Onye Ịnapụtara
Na sị gị imela, Imela Papa mo
Oh, oh, oh, Oh, oh
