The Creation of “River of Worship”
What led Dengiyefa to create this single River of Worship (ROW) is the need for our priorities to be rearranged. Understanding that nothing happens outside the existence of our creator.
The scripture John 12:32 “And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” is what motivated this song. The priority is to be God first and the focus falls on Him alone. This song says just that in Dengiyefa's own words. With the skill of a talented team of musicians, singers and engineers, Dengiyefa was able to capture the essence of that scripture in this song he wrote.

Dengiyefa Testimonies Are In His Music
The songs Dengiyefa write are testimonies of different seasons in his life. Sometimes Dengiyefa was inspired by someone else’s struggle. For the most part Dengiyefa songs are his personal experiences of his struggles, successes and faith for the future.
Growing up as a child Dengiyefa lost his dad at the age of 10 to a stroke and heart attack. Dengiyefa didn’t really have anyone to play the father role in his life. Even with being the youngest of 7 siblings, they are all 10+ years older than him and had priorities of their own. Not having a father-figure in his life exposed Dengiyefa to a lot of youthful distractions. What helped to keep him focused was the scriptures his mum taught and shared with him and the love for gospel music. When Dengiyefa write songs, it’s his way of saying thank you to God for all He has done and as a reflection of the storms He’s brought him through. Dengiyefa write songs to give Him the glory and praise using the words and melodies He’s orchestrated through him.
