[Music + Lyric] Nak Jently – You spoke

Nak Jently releases “You Have Spoken,” a powerful worship song inspired by a personal encounter with God and a journey through delays, setbacks, and renewed faith.

The song was born out of a season of Nak crying out to God about failed dreams, unrealized visions, and things she wanted to accomplish for Him. Through Scripture, God reminded her that she didn’t need to worry about what she would do for God because God Himself was working on her behalf.

That meeting became the basis for “You Have Spoken.”

However, bringing the song to life involved years of delays and setbacks. Nak eventually moved on to other projects and left the song behind.

Years later, after facing challenges with projects that had previously flourished, Nak felt God calling her back to a deeper place of worship. Her journey led her to Pastor Nathaniel Bassey and the Hallelujah Challenge, where she began to grow in her journey as a worshiper.

During the Hallelujah Challenge, Nak discovered producer Mr. Wols, contacted him, and unexpectedly received the opportunity to collaborate. The project later expanded to include Matthew Harden and the Holy Cross Lutheran School choir, sound engineers Darren Usher and Wallace Smith, and film producer Torri Brown, who documented the trip.

Despite the challenges he encountered in Nigeria and the United States, Nak Jently testified to God’s faithfulness throughout the process.

“You Have Spoken” is ultimately a song of gratitude and encouragement, reminding listeners of God’s mercy and faithfulness while at the same time encouraging those who are still waiting for His promises to come true.

Nak Jently’s prayer is that the song will help listeners remember what God has done and strengthen their faith as they continue to wait for what God has said.

Listen to Nak Jently’s “You Have Spoken” and be encouraged by a testimony of faith, worship, and God’s unwavering faithfulness.

NAK JENTLY TRIP INFORMATION

Like many, I started out in a children’s choir where I was taught to sing in church. Youth choir is where I learned the fundamentals of worship, so it was important to me to record with young voices. My hope is always to pour into young people as I poured into myself as a child.

When I went to college, I stopped singing for a long time because I was developing my movement skills in competitive dance. Eventually, the competition became exhausting for me, and my love for singing brought me back to choir and praise team, where I could focus on an audience of one: Jesus.

Unfortunately, my focus wasn’t as prayerful as I would have liked because my walk with the Lord was full of stumbles, failures, and falls. It was only when I experienced a season of great loss that I saw the Lord “surround me with songs of deliverance” as David mentions in Psalm 32:7 as he reflected on God’s forgiveness. In that season, I saw God do what I call giving melody to my tears. My crying as I worshiped before Jesus opened my spirit to receive the answers He was giving me.

I began to grow in my desire to spend time in His presence. It was in that place of worship that I received His love letters, His corrections and His instructions through melodies. Eventually, the melodies came often enough that I knew the Lord had given me the new gift of writing music, even though I didn’t play a traditional instrument. My voice became my trumpet and I learned to work with sound engineers to produce music.
