Ololufe (My Love)

Ephesians 5:25 - Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. Ololufe Mi (My Lover) by Bajo is a Yoruba highlife Love Song dedicated to godly wives. In the book of Proverbs, there is a beautiful word picture painted of a godly wife. The virtues of a godly wife have not changed, even over thousands of years. A godly wife is one who has the complete trust of her husband. He doesn’t have to worry she will be tempted by the wiles of another man. She is dignified, wise, and devoted (Proverbs 31:11, 12, 25, 26). Her husband is confident of her support and sincere love. Her husband has a good reputation in the community, and she never speaks ill of him, never gossips about him. Rather, she is always lifting him up. She maintains the household thoroughly and is well-respected herself (Proverbs 31:12, 21, 23). She is enterprising and ambitious. A godly wife is submissive to her husband (Ephesians 5:22).
