TGMA26: Diana Hamilton and Mercy Chinwo’s “The Doing of the Lord” is a top contender for 2025’s Intl. Collabo

As anticipation builds for the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards, one song is making waves as the standout contender for International Collaboration of the Year—The Doing of the Lord. This remarkable track, a powerful fusion of Ghana’s gospel icon Diana Hamilton and Nigeria’s sensational Mercy Chinwo, is more than just a song; it’s a divine collaboration that embodies faith, inspiration, and gospel excellence.

For over a decade, Diana Hamilton has been the heartbeat of Ghanaian gospel music, continuously delivering hit after hit that uplifts and inspires. From Adom to Mo Ne Yo, her music has resonated across borders, and with The Doing of the Lord, she has once again raised the bar. The song has shattered records, topped charts, and become a defining moment in the international gospel music scene—perfectly embodying the essence of the International Collaboration of the Year category at the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards.

A Harmonious Blend of Ghanaian and Nigerian Gospel Excellence

The Doing of the Lord is a seamless fusion of Ghanaian and Nigerian gospel talent, where Mercy Chinwo’s anointed vocals beautifully complement Diana Hamilton’s soulful delivery. Together, they’ve created a song that resonates deeply with listeners around the world. From the anticipation surrounding its release to the overwhelming response upon debut, this collaboration quickly became a milestone in Ghanaian gospel music.

The song’s accompanying music video also shines with cultural brilliance. It elegantly showcases both Ghanaian and Nigerian aesthetics, with intricate headpieces, beautiful dresses, and an overarching theme of unity in diversity. One of the standout moments in the video is Mercy Chinwo’s flawless delivery of a verse in Twi, a remarkable feat that had many believing she was Ghanaian herself. This cultural exchange continued when Diana Hamilton, during The Awake Experience 2024, learned the Igbo version of the song, creating one of the most-watched gospel performances of the year.
