“Kele Ya” by Voice Of The Cross is one of those timeless classics that still resonate with Christians today. Back in the 80s and 90s, Brothers Lazarus and Emmanuel, the duo behind Voice Of The Cross, were like the gospel music royalty, and this song was one of their crowning jewels.

The lyrics are simple but powerful. “Kele kele ya, kele ya,” they sing, urging us to praise Him. “Aha ya bu Ihunanya kele ya,” which means “His name is Love, praise Him,” reminding us of the unfailing love of Jesus. And then they proclaim, “Jesus onye isi udo kele ya,” declaring Him as the Prince of Peace, worthy of our praise.

There’s a sense of joy and reverence in their voices as they sing, “Ohuru umu ya na anya kele ya,” which means “He loves His children, praise Him.” It’s like they’re inviting us into a celebration of love, peace, and gratitude for all that Jesus has done for us.

Even though it’s been decades since this song was first released, its message still rings true today. It’s a reminder to praise Him, to acknowledge His love and peace in our lives, and to be grateful for all His blessings. That’s the timeless power of gospel music, and Voice Of The Cross captured it perfectly in “Kele Ya.”
