Original Indeginous Language Gospel Music: Listen to a clip in the medial player above. All music written and performed by "Thunder of Praise" our ministry gospel music group. Music is performed in the unique Senegalese and Liberian styles. Watch Doris Ba perform in a live music video above singing "The Power of the Cross" at the New Wilmington Mission Conference in 2006.

Evangelization is taken to the young people who have love for music through songs produced by our evangelistic team. The music is produced by both Christians, Muslims and Animist youths in their traditional languages and style. The message in the music is strictly Christian. Usually, the music is very popular and appeals to both Christians and non-Christians alike. They are being invited to sing many times at public gatherings thus spreading the good news of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to thousand who because of the love for the songs learn to sing and know the meaning of words in them. The team is now registered and recognized by the government of the host country, Senegal and God is blessing them greatly.

Holy Spirit (Psalm 139)

Where can I go from your spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up in the heavens
You are there
If I make my bed in the depths
You are there
I can't live without you.

Chorus:
Holy Spirit move in my life
Holy Spirit move in my heart
Holy Spirit move all over me
I can't live without you.

If I rise on the wings of the dawn
If settle on the far side of the sea
Even there your hand will guide me
Your right hand will hold me
If I say surely the darkness
Will hide me, you are there
I can't live without you.

You are familiar with my ways
Before a word is on my tongue
You know, completely, oh lord

If I make my bed in the depths
You are there
I can't live without you

Chorus.

Je Veux Te Louez (I Want to See You )

Seigneur tu es Dieu
Aucun homme n'est comme toi
Recoit l'honneur, la gloire, la puissance

Oh Lord you are my God
Nothing can compare to your
Glory oh Lord,

Seigneur, tu es la view
La lumiere dans ma vie

Tu es mon Dieu
Tu es rempli de bonté
Tu es mon Dieu et la force
Se trouve en toi
Tu es mon Dieu
Tu es rempli de puissance.

You are my God
You are fair with goodness

You are my God
You are fair with power
You are my God
Every strength is found
In you.

Je veux te louer
Mon Seigneur mon Roi
Pour son Amour
Manisfesté sur la croix
A Golghota
Je veux le chanter
Mon seigneur, mon abri
Mon soutien, Allélu amen.

The Power of the Cross

When I think of the Cross
I think about my burden that I could not bear
Those heavy weights
That was press down upon me

That was beyond my ability
To cast off
And as heavy as they were
At the cross.
The shackles and chains were
Release.

Chorus:
At Calvary
Jesus died for me
At Calvary
Jesus bored my sins
At Calvary
Jesus set me free
That's the power of the cross

When I think of the cross
I think about the greatest love
Of all that Jesus share
The Amazing love that was so divine
That Jesus share so I can truly
Live again
The wondrous work of the cross
Who can bear?
But my redeeming Lord.

Chorus:

That's the power of the cross.
Yesu dé ngir man
Jesus died for me
Diokhé dundam ca bateba
He give His live on the cross
Dindil ma samay baker
He wash away my sins
Lolo takh man koy santa
That's why I'm praising Him

At Calvary
Jesus died for me
At Calvary
Jesus bored my sins
At Calvary
Jesus set me free

He gave me, he gave,
He gave me, ever-lasting life
That's the power of the cross.....
