Wow Gold Medal Winner at the Olympics for Germany, Yemisi Magdalena Ogunleye, Sings a Gospel Song in Thanksgiving to God! LISTEN
It was an unusual statement at a press conference: The 25-year-old German Olympic champion Yemisi Magdalena Ogunleye sang a gospel song with the lyrics, "I'm alive today because of His grace". The athlete, who gave the Germans their first gold in the shot put, on August 9th, was asked what song was going through her head after the competition. Her answer was to sing out loud the song that tells of how Jesus held her up after she had almost given up. In addition, immediately, after the competition, she also confessed her Christian faith in front of the camera. She held a piece of paper in front of the camera that read "You are loved - John 3:16".
She also spoke openly in various interviews about how God is her source of strength, and she often sang short gospel songs, as "Idea" reports. Just a few days ago, she published a praise song on Instagram together with other athletes, the hit "Gratitude" by Brandon Lake. Yemisi was born in Bellheim Germany, her mother is German and her father is from Nigeria.
