Lyrics:
In Genesis 16:13
Hagar was maltreated
by her Mistress and
She fled into the desert
God sent his Angel to
guide and support her
It was there that Hagar
called him El Roi
The God who sees
El Roi
El Roi
El Roi
The God who sees
El Roi
El Roi
El Roi
The God who sees
Yes, you know me
And you chose me
Yes, you knew me
Even when I wasn’t yet born
Yes, you know me
Lord, you know my name
Yes, you found me
When I was lost
Yes, you know me
And you chose me
Yes, you knew me
Even when I wasn’t yet born
El Roi
El Roi
El Roi
The God who sees
El Roi
El Roi
El Roi
The God who sees
I call you Elédùmárè
Oba Awon oba
You are my God
You are my all
I call you Elédùmárè
Oba Awon oba
You are my God
You are my all
El Roi
El Roi
El Roi
The God who sees
El Roi
El Roi
El Roi
The God who sees
I call you Elédùmárè
Oba Awon oba
You are my God
You are my all
I call you Elédùmárè
Oba Awon oba
You are my God
You are my all
