New melody titled Engaged by the Nigerian contemporary music minister Austin Adigwe.
As he tries to pen down the story behind the song, Austin wrote; “My Praise” crooner, “This song is inspired by the imperatives of having a personal relationship with God in all endeavours.”
“It is a song that engages, inspires, and awakens our consciousness of God’s sovereign authority over all that concerns humanity.”

Ooooooooooooooooooo
I’m engaged to God,

Oh, I’m engaged to you God,
