Mama Tee, Emmanuel Awipi, and Emmanuel Dickson have collaborated to release their first single of the year, “It’s Gonna Be Alright.”
The trio believes that the song is timely and a powerful reminder that no matter the challenges we face, Jesus is always in control.
With God working everything out for our good, we can find hope and comfort even in the most difficult times. Let’s dance and give praise to God, for He always has our backs!
The song was written by the three of them in collaboration across three continents. It features Emmanuel Dickson on lead vocals, with Rume, Blossom, and Mynorchord on background vocals.
Emmanuel Awipi also releases a word in the song, which wraps up with Mama Tee’s children (Deji and Tiwa), reminding us to have childlike faith that everything will be alright.
The music video was created by @yasin.enray (Instagram), and was produced by Emmanuel Awipi.
Special thanks to the grade 3 Students at Knox Christian School and to Jeffrey Noel for his patience and assistance with recording Deji and Tiwa.

Lyrics:
“How’ya doin?
Yeah, I know you’re going through some stuff
I can feel your pain
Can we talk about it real quick?”
Come on
The economy is Tanking
The church pews are empty
The death of a loved one
Got you feeling really numb yeah
(I’m sorry)
Now you’re wondering, does He really care
Cause it feels like you’re drowning
But what I have to tell you is
(Listen)
Keep your head high
Up to the sky
Jesus sees all you’re going through
Trouble may last
But just for a night
Joy will come with the morning light
(I feel your pain)
It’s a struggle to find a job
You got a child that can’t walk or talk
(It’s been tough)
When you think that you have had it all
Here they come filling for divorce
(Yeah, I’m sorry)
It doesn’t matter what you are going through
You’ve got Jesus in your boat
(But because He’s in your boat, this is what you can do)
(Say!)
Keep your head high
Up to the sky
(He sees you)
Jesus sees all you’re going through
(Trouble may last)
Trouble may last
(But it’s just for a night)
Just for a night
(Hang on Joy is coming)
Joy will come with the morning light
(He sees)
He sees
(He knows)
He knows
He’s in
He’s in
(Control)
Control
(I said He sees)
He sees
(And He knows)
He knows
(He’s in)
He’s in
(Control)
Control
(No matter the problem)
He sees
(That you’re facing)
He knows
(God is always)
He’s in
(In control)
(So be encouraged)
He sees
(Cause He will show up)
He knows
(And He will work it out
come on!)
Keep your head high
Up to the sky
(Yes sir)
Jesus sees all you’re going through
(Trouble may last)
Trouble may last
(But I am so glad)
But just for a night
(Joy comes in the morning)
Joy will come with the morning light
(Can I get a witness in here)
Come on
Yeah, I feel your pain
Come on, Pastor Awipi
Preach
And we know with great confidence that God who is deeply concerned about us causes all things to work together as a plan for good for those who love God to those who are called
according to his plan and purpose
Keep praising
(Sing)
And smiling
(Don’t worry)
Don’t worry
(It’s all gonna be alright)
Everything’s gonna be alright
(Keep that smile on your face)
Keep praising
(The Joy of the Lord is your strength)
And smiling
(Be encouraged)
Don’t worry
Everything’s gonna be alright
Yes, sir
Keep praising
And smiling
Don’t worry
Everything’s gonna be alright
(Can I get an Amen)
Amen!
