Ifeoluwa Meroko Releases Deeply Spiritual New Single “IGBA”

Gifted Gospel artiste and vocalist Ifeoluwa Meroko has released a deeply spiritual new single and accompanying music video titled “IGBA (Season),” a soul-stirring song that explores the journey of waiting on God and trusting His perfect timing.

Known for her passion for serving God and using music to uplift and encourage souls, Ifeoluwa Meroko continues to distinguish herself through her creative expression, heartfelt vocals, and spiritually resonant songs. Her commitment to excellence and genuine love for God remain evident in her latest offering.

Following her previous heartfelt releases, Meroko takes listeners into a different dimension with “IGBA,” focusing on one of the most challenging yet important aspects of the Christian journey: waiting on the Lord.

The word “IGBA,” meaning “Season,” captures the central message of the song. It reminds listeners that every season has its purpose and that God's plans often unfold according to a divine timetable that may not always align with human expectations.

Through its reflective and worshipful message, “IGBA” encourages believers who may be experiencing seasons of waiting, uncertainty, delayed expectations, or unanswered prayers to remain steadfast in faith. The song offers reassurance that God's silence does not mean His absence and that His timing remains perfect.

Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, Meroko shares: “There is an appointed time for everything, and every season under heaven has its purpose. IGBA is a call to rest in God's timing and trust His perfect plan.”

More than just a musical release, “IGBA” serves as a spiritual reminder to surrender expectations to God, remain patient, and continue trusting Him even when the journey seems unclear.

With the release of both the song and its music video, Ifeoluwa Meroko invites listeners worldwide to embrace their season, wait with faith, and remember that God remains faithful through every stage of life.

Akoko Olorun ki npe beni ki nya - God’s time is never late nor is it too early

Gbogbo ibere lo ngbo, amo ki ndahun gbogbo re - He hears every prayer, but He does not answer all of them

Eyi yio pa wa Lara, ma lo nfasehin fun -The ones that would be to our detriment, He holds them back

K'oruko Olorun ma ba di isoro odi si - So that the name of God does not become a subject of mockery

Amo loju awa eniyan, adabi wipe.. O pe de ( Ara mi o)   - But in the eyes of us humans, it seems as though... He is delayed

(Oh, my people).

Bope boya - Sooner or later, 

Ola Ada - Tomorrow will be good

Adaniwaye mo oun t'eda ada - The Creator knows exactly what his creation shall become

Orun to mbe nita to aso gbe ooo - The sun that shines outside is enough to dry any cloth

B'atunbotan aye ba ndori eni kodo - Even if the ultimate end of life turns one upside down,

B'adun ba ngbehin ewuro, o daju pe - If the bitterness of the bitter leaf must give way to sweetness, be assured.

B'oni tile koro, Ola aladun - Though today may be bitter, tomorrow holds sweetness.

Tujuka ma se bokan  je rara - Cheer up, do not be sorrowful at all.

Turaka ere kan a wa ninu ironu bi?  - Relax, is there any benefit in anxious thoughts?
