Deola Jewel returns with Easter tribute, You Have Put Me Together

Nigerian-British Christian Gospel Singer and composer, Deola Jewel, has returned to the fore with an Easter-themed record dubbed, You Have Put Me Together. Inspired by biblical references (Psalm 147:3 and Psalm 23:5), the song is a powerful testament to God’s redemptive power.

Produced by Kenzeal, the record reverberates with a sonic depth that is appealing to even non-religious individuals.

In a chat with Weekend Beats, Deola, who doubles as a saxophonist, reveals the inspiration behind the song: “It was inspired by two scripture passages, Psalm 147:3 which says, ‘He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds’, and Psalm 23:5 which says, ‘You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.’ The idea for the song came to me during a time of personal reflection on the ways in which God has brought healing and restoration to my life. And this reminds me of God’s redemptive power especially as we celebrate Easter.”

Projecting the song’s impact, she notes: “It will be a song to celebrate our victory in Christ, that it will be a source of comfort and encouragement for listeners who may be struggling with feelings of brokenness, pain or insecurity. I believe that the message of the song is one of hope and restoration, and I pray that it will be a reminder to listeners of God’s faithfulness and love through all seasons.”

According to Deola, the record, which was produced live, was also supported by her husband, Pastor Fola Alade, especially during its production.
