Song Review: "Favour" (Cover by Godswill Oyor).

From the moment the first note of Favour (cover by Godswill Oyor) washes over you, you know you are not just hearing music—you are encountering a sound from another realm. This is not merely a song; it’s an impartation, a mantle, a spiritual river that runs deep into the prophetic undercurrents of Heaven. While the original version by Lawrence Oyor stands as a powerful song of favour, anointing, and divine timing, the cover by his twin brother, Godswill, ascends into even greater spiritual territory—adding layers of intensity, conviction, and holy fire. One might dare say that Favour has found a second wind, a new breath, through the voice of another vessel who carries the same DNA, both biologically and spiritually.

And what a powerful metaphor that is: twin vessels carrying a singular but multifaceted sound. The Oyor brothers—Lawrence and Godswill—mirror something ancient and sacred, almost reminiscent of the 12 tribes of Israel. In listening to this rendition of Favour, one begins to perceive a prophetic alignment, a spiritual heritage awakening within. For me personally, there was an undeniable stirring in my spirit, a whisper that said, "You belong to this sound. You are of this tribe."

I’ve found myself gravitating to what feels like the tribe of Issachar—known in Scripture for their profound prophetic insight and ability to discern the times and seasons (1 Chronicles 12:32). This tribe wasn’t just blessed with knowledge—they had divine timing encoded in their spiritual DNA. That same anointing flows through this cover of Favour. It is not just a song you sing; it’s a sound that tells you when, where, and how. It unlocks moments in Heaven and marks them on earth. Whether Godswill Oyor is consciously channeling this Issacharian mantle or not, the evidence is in the atmosphere the song creates.

There is a depth to Godswill’s rendition that feels urgent and alive. His voice doesn't just carry the words—it births them. It feels like creation happening all over again. You hear Favour and it isn’t just a concept anymore. It is a mantle descending, a cloak being placed upon your shoulders. The song takes you into a place of divine alignment, where destiny and time collide.

And because of this, I know this song will mark generations for me.

When I become a mother, this will be the first song my children hear. It won’t be lullabies or ambient white noise—it will be Favour echoing in the womb, saturating their forming hearts and spirits with truth, identity, and divine direction. I want this sound in their subconscious, in their soul memory. I want this melody etched into their spiritual blueprint. Even now, I play it on repeat, again and again, letting it imprint something eternal on me.

There are songs you enjoy. Then there are songs that possess you—in the most holy of ways. Favour (cover by Godswill Oyor) is one such song. It doesn’t just lift your mood; it aligns your spirit. It doesn’t simply inspire; it activates. There is authority in his delivery. There is clarity in the message. And there is an unmistakable sense that Heaven backs this sound.

Perhaps it’s the “twin power”—a concept too sacred to reduce to mere genetics. The way both Lawrence and Godswill Oyor minister, you sense that they were born for such a time as this. That their songs were predestined to go ahead of armies, to prepare the way for revival, to unlock destinies and mark generations. While Lawrence's original version gave us the foundational revelation, Godswill has given it wings. It’s as if he caught the sound in its mature form and gave it a new robe of glory.

When you listen to Godswill sing Favour, you feel like angels stand at attention. It is a priestly sound, a prophetic sound, and a sound of war—all at once. It’s rare to find that balance. Too often, worship either leans toward the meditative or the militant. But this cover gives you all: the peace of divine promise, the fire of prophetic clarity, and the sword of supernatural breakthrough.

This isn’t just about musical skill—though that is certainly present. This is about spiritual inheritance, about vessels who have been carved out by the hand of God for a generation hungry for direction, meaning, and supernatural grace.

In conclusion, Favour (cover by Godswill Oyor) is not just a reimagining of a beautiful worship song—it is a prophetic moment preserved in melody. It is a sound that awakens tribes, aligns seasons, and prepares wombs—both natural and spiritual—for divine birthing. Whether you’re listening for the first time or putting it on replay like I do, one thing is certain: this song doesn’t just enter your ears. It enters your future.
