Nigerian gospel music minister, worship leader, lawyer, pastor, and creative Chinwe Udeze Elekula, professionally known as CUE, has officially released her brand new single titled “Atuna Egwu” on May 15, 2026.
Translated from Igbo as “Do Not Be Afraid,” Atuna Egwu is a deeply moving worship sound born from a personal season of grief, healing, and renewed faith in God’s presence.
Known for her heartfelt worship expressions and spiritually rich songwriting, CUE continues to establish herself as a voice of hope and encouragement through songs that point listeners back to God’s love and faithfulness. Since officially beginning her recording career with songs like Place of Peace, Surrendered, and I Dance, she has remained committed to creating music that inspires surrender, healing, peace, and trust in God through every season of life.
Atuna Egwu carries a deeply personal story.
Earlier in 2026, CUE experienced the painful loss of a second miscarriage after a hopeful season of expectation. In the midst of grief, emotional struggle, and vulnerability, she found herself alone at home wrestling with fear and uncertainty. During that difficult moment, she sensed the gentle reassurance of the Holy Spirit reminding her of the importance of encouraging oneself in the Lord, just as David did in Scripture.
What began as a moment of pain soon became a moment of worship.
As she began speaking God’s Word over her life, fear gave way to faith, silence turned into worship, and peace began to rise in the middle of heartbreak. From that sacred place, Atuna Egwu was birthed — a declaration that God remains present even in life’s darkest moments and that fear never has the final word.
With a blend of English and Igbo lyrics, the song delivers a powerful message of reassurance, courage, and unwavering trust in God. Through heartfelt melodies and deeply reflective lyrics, CUE reminds listeners that they are never alone, no matter the storms they face.
Speaking about the song, CUE shares:
“‘Atuna Egwu’ is more than just a song to me — it is a testimony of God’s presence in pain. It is a reminder that even in moments when fear feels overwhelming, God remains near, faithful, and present. My prayer is that everyone who listens will experience peace, strength, and the reassurance that God is with them.”
The song’s chorus powerfully echoes:
“Obim dere du, Atuna egwu… God’s here with you.”
Atuna Egwu is now available on all major streaming platforms.
