Renowned Nigerian gospel minister and songwriter Frank Edwards has returned with a new worship record titled Ese Oh, a thanksgiving song now streaming across all major digital platforms.
The new release continues Edwards’ long-standing tradition of producing faith-driven music that blends personal testimony with congregational worship. Unlike celebratory songs that focus on milestones or achievements, Ese Oh centers on gratitude—recognising God’s guidance through seasons of struggle, learning, sacrifice, and spiritual growth.
In Ese Oh, Edwards reflects on the long road behind him, offering thanks not for perfection, but for mercy, endurance, and divine direction. The song’s gentle and repetitive melody creates an atmosphere suited for reflection and prayer, making it accessible for both personal devotion and collective worship.
The lyrics dwell on thanksgiving and perseverance, inviting listeners to pause and acknowledge how far they have come and the unseen help that sustained them along the way. As a result, the song functions both as a personal testimony from the singer and a shared worship experience for listeners.
