You Are More Than What People Say

Song Meaning

Repetition carries the claim: “You are more than what people call You, You are more than what people say.” Chinedu Nwadike builds the song on that single line and then lets praise fill in what the names fall short of, calling God “excellent” and “marvelous” and addressing Him as “Almighty Jehovah.” No human title or opinion is allowed to set the ceiling on who He is.

The middle section turns to gratitude with a question, “What shall we render to You / For all that You’ve done?” The answer is steadfastness over time. “From ages to ages You remain faithful, from generation to generation,” and then a line about change: “Everything may come and pass / But Your word will still remain.” The closing verses repeat the refrain in Igbo, with the English glossed beside it, so the claim is made in the singer’s own language as well.

The question echoes Psalm 116:12, the lasting word is the promise of Isaiah 40:8, and the faithfulness across generations matches Psalm 100:5.

You are more than what people call You

You are more than what people say

You are more than what people call You

You are more than what people say

You are excellent You are marvelous

You are more than people say

You are more than what people call You

You are more than what people say

What shall we render to You

For all that You've done

What shall we give to You

For all that You've done

From ages to ages You remain faithful

From generation to generation You remain faithful

Everything may come and pass

But Your word will still remain

Almighty Jehovah You are more than what people say

You are excellent You are marvelous

You are more than people say

You are more than what people call You

You are more than what people say

You are more than what people call You

You are more than what people say

You are excellent You are marvelous

You are more than people say ...

You are more than what people say. (Igbo)

Ikariri ihie asi n'ibu, Chineke ikariri ihie asi n'ibu, idi ebube imara mma Ikariri ihie asi n'ibu. (Igbo)

You are bigger than what people, Jehovah, you are bigger than what people say, you are excellent, you are marvelous you are bigger than what people say.
