Nicole C. Mullen's song 'Olorun' is a bilingual worship piece in English and Yoruba, praising God as the Creator of mountains and the One worthy of all praise. The lyrics repeatedly ask who else should be lifted high and given glory, answering that it is God the Father alone. The song's structure is simple and repetitive, focusing on exalting God's majesty and sovereignty. It reflects a heart of adoration and surrender, acknowledging God's unmatched power and worthiness. The use of Yoruba connects the song to African Christian worship traditions.

Oh God who created mountains of those days
Only You we give all our praise
Olorun t'o da awon Oke Igbani
Eyin ni mo fi Okpe me fun
T'ani N'wo tun gbe ga O
(Who else must be lifted up)
Bi Ko se Baba l'oke?
(If not You our Father?)
Tani N'wo tun fi gbogbo okpe mi fun
(Who then must be given all my praise)
It is You who created mountains of those days
Only You we give all of our praise
Olorun t'o da awon Oke Igbani
Eyin ni mo fi Okpe me fun
Oh God who created mountains of those days
Only You we give all of our praise
Who then must be lifted up
If not our heavenly Father?
Who then must be given all of our praise
T'ani N'wo tun gbe ga O
Bi Ko se Baba l'oke
Tani N'wo tun fi gbogbo okpe mi fun
It is You who created mountains of those days
Only You we give all of our praise
Eyin ni mo fo okpe me fun
Only You we give all of our praise
