A video of Deeper Life choir performing the old hymn 'No Turning Back' without musical instruments has sent social media users into a frenzy.

Gaise Baba's gospel remake of the popular old hymn, featuring Lawrence Oyor, became a hit and sparked a discussion among clerics and Christian folks, due to how it was sung.

According to a netizen, the video of Deeper Life choir singing the old hymn is about two years old, but this could not be confirmed at the time of this report.

In the over three-minute clip posted on TikTok, the male choir sang the song passionately, adding finesse to it by making sounds with their mouths.

Pastor condemns trending Christian song

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a pastor had condemned the trending Christian song 'No Turning Back' by Gaise Baba, which featured Lawrence Oyor.

The unknown clergyman said that the gospel hit was intended to make people reflect on Luke 9:23.

The clergyman stated that Gaise's song has evolved into vibes with "nothing gospel about it". He went on to criticise Gaise and his co-star Lawrence Oyor's physical appearance.
