MUSIC: Reflections By Jephthah Idahosa Aigbe

Gospel music minister Jephthah Idahosa Aigbe releases his much anticipated track tagged “Reflections”. Jephthah is an anointed Praise/Worship leader and Songwriter, currently based in Zaria, Nigeria

“Reflections” is a song that was birthed in deep meditation, as the song title implies. I came across a scripture (Mark 7:6-7) that revealed that worship could be done in vain if we honor God with our lips when our hearts are far from Him. So I said a prayer to God, to align the words of my lips and the thoughts within my heart, for I realized that anything other than that would be self deception. God cannot be mocked and cannot be deceived. “I cannot look into His eyes and tell a lie”. I put this prayer into a melody and this song was birthed. I pray that this will become the prayer of believers all over the body of Christ and that we will repent from hypocrisy and from worship that begins and ends only on our lips.

Jephthah Idahosa Aigbe is a graduate of Architecture from the prestigious Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.

Lyrics: Reflections by Jephthah Idahosa Aigbe

Verse

Let my heart speak the same words with my lips

Let my lips give expression to my heart

Let the song within my heart be the song upon my lips

Let the words upon my lips be true to the thoughts within my heart

Chorus

Cos I cannot look into Your eyes and tell a lie

I cannot look into Your eyes and tell a lie

I cannot look into Your eyes and tell a lie

I cannot look into Your eyes and tell a lie

Bridge

I’m tired of the hypocrisy

I’m tired of the lies we tell

If we claim that it is all so perfect

When we know it is not all well

Can we get out of this unreal madness

And seek the Lord like we’re desperate for Him

Drop crowns and titles and just surrender

Let our worship be true and pure

Cos we can’t look into His eyes and tell a lie

We cannot look into His eyes and tell a lie

No man can look into His eyes and tell a lie

I cannot look into Your eyes and tell a lie

So let my heart

Verse

Let my heart speak the same words with my lips

Let my lips give expression to my heart

Let the song within my heart be the song upon my lips

Let the words upon my lips be true to the thoughts within my heart

Chorus

I cannot look into Your eyes and tell a lie

I cannot look into Your eyes and tell a lie

Outro

There’s no need to pretend

You see my heart the way it is

Can’t look into Your eyes and tell a lie

No no no
