Fast-rising Ghanaian Gospel Musician, Eric Hazael has officially released his latest gospel single “Aseda” featuring talented singer Molato. Listen Here.

The new song “Aseda” – a Ghanaian Ashanti word which means “Gratitude or Thanksgiving,” is simply a beautiful gospel record about the goodness of God.

It’s all praise, thanksgiving and glory-giving on the under three minutes song. Known for having super-creative instincts, writing bible-backed verses and singing soul-uplifting songs, Eric Hazael sings the first verse on “Aseda” and effortlessly allures the listener to join in on the praise session.

The chorus backed by Molato, reverberates the song’s chief leitmotif of thanksgiving and sets the groove right for a wholesome heavenly experience of glorification.

Just like the songs “Yahweh” and “Testify” of his “KNGDM & PWR EP” released last year, Eric Hazael uplifts the maker and testifies of the good works of the Lord with a mellifluous voice.

Bringing distinct range, unparalleled storytelling abilities, Molato sings in English, Pidgin and Twi about God’s word of honour.

On “Aseda,” both singers complement each other perfectly as they lead the spiritual charge of gratitude.

Eric Hazael spoke to Amplify Ghana about God’s divine interventions in his life which was the main catalyst for the production of the song.

He said the latest single, “Aseda is my thanksgiving to God for not deserting me when my sin separated me from his loving embrace.”

“It shows my struggles, my victories and my sense of joy knowing I am being led unto the shining path which leads into his burning presence.”

It’s the season of praise and thanksgiving. “Aseda” is the right song for the season and perfect candidate for your gospel playlists.
