Olufunke premiers new single titled unto us a child is born to celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ this christmas season.
The inspiring Gospel music recording artiste had in time past released great and awesome tracks such as Overflowing praise, if you know me before,and Iba which was her latest single preceding this new single.
Unto us a child is born takes us way back into the history of Israel’s captivity and how God sent Moses to their deliverance and it also reminds us that Jesus Christ is the reason for the season.
This song reminds us of the story of how Adam’s sin brought mankind under the captivity of sin and death and once again, God sent a deliverer in the form of a son….HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON JESUS CHRIST.
OLUFUNKE in this song, features her best friend and vocal coach known simply as KIKI…a vocal powerhouse.

LYRICS
A long time many years ago
God told His good friend Abraham that Israel will enslaved in a land far away
Abraham didn’t understand but he never questioned God
Until the appointed time and the Word of God came to pass.
And Israel wept
We need a deliverer
Where’s THIS SAME God our fathers have always talked about?
And God said
I’ll send you a deliverer
And unto them a son Moses was born
Verse 2
When Adam sinned against God
He never realized just what he had done
He had sold all humanity unto the chilly hands of death
Man was doomed for destruction
For the soul that sinneth must die
For without the shedding of blood
There’ll be no remission of sin
And man wept
God send us a deliverer
To save us from this cruel hands of death
And God said
I’ll send you a deliverer
And unto man the Lord Jesus was born
Verse 3
He was born in manger
And he grew up as a carpenter
Persecuted for his goodness by the people of his tribe
He was bruised for our inquiries
Most Holy lamb of God
He was whipped and beaten for us
Now by His stripes we are healed
Chorus
Unto us a child is born
Unto us a son is given
And the government shall be upon His shoulders
And His name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor The Mighty God.
