Ise Oluwa [The Work of the Lord] by Godwin Sadoh

[Malaka57]

Wasn't this written by Ilori? He had a great album with Blue Note... My group sings it a little differently, more as a lullaby....

nice try! good stuff; Ise Oluwa is a Yoruba song; more like a folk song than anything; its not particularly owned by one schoool of thought or the other. still, give 10 out of 10 for trying

"Ise Oluwa" is not a folk song. It is actually a Yoruba Christian song composed by one of the pioneers of Yoruba church music, that is, choirmaster and organist, in the early 20th century. There are several arrangements of the tune for vocal and instrumental ensembles by Nigerian professionally trained composers such as Samuel Akpabot, Laz Ekwueme, Joshua Uzoigwe, and Godwin Sadoh.
