The 1st item on your list is originally an Igbo song, poorly translated into English as you can observe the wrong grammar.

The real song (in Igbo language) goes thus:
Mmadụ niile na-asị Ebube. Ebube Jehovah mara mma....x2

The pronunciation as rendered in English is like:
Ma do nil ey na see ey boo bay. ey boo bay Jehovah ma ram ma... x2

And the correct translation in English is:
Everybody says Glory. The glory of Jehovah is beautiful...x2
