Funmi Reks’ “ELIYAH” hits like a deep breath for the soul, the kind you didn’t realize you needed until the first line lands. Rooted in Ephesians 1:17–18, the track moves with a prophetic energy that feels both ancient and refreshingly current. It’s worship, but with a modern emotional weight that taps into CCM, R&B warmth, and a smooth ballad feel. The result is a sound that pulls you inward while lifting your spirit upward at the same time.

Right from the opening verse “For God who said let light shine out of darkness…” the tone is set. The song doesn’t rush. Instead, it opens like a prayer in slow motion, letting every word breathe. Funmi’s vocal delivery is rich and steady, carrying that familiar soul-infused glow she’s known for. She doesn’t just sing scripture she sits in it, allowing the lyrics to wash over listeners in a way that feels personal and grounding.
The repetition of “Holy Spirit in my heart / Holy Spirit in my mind” becomes a steady chant, almost meditative, turning the track into a space of focus and surrender. It’s the kind of moment that clears mental noise and recenters the listener on what really matters: revelation, presence, and alignment with God’s purpose.

As the bridge builds “This is my heart desire… I will sing of the glory” the track shifts from quiet devotion to a bold declaration. The final lines “The Spirit in the air will speak / That Jesus and me have arrived” bring the song to a victorious, faith-filled conclusion.
“ELIYAH” is a spiritual recalibration a reminder that light still breaks through darkness, and that revelation is available to anyone willing to listen. Funmi Reks delivers a worship moment that feels intimate, timeless, and globally relevant.
