Baba Eledumare, Wa gbo're wa.

"Baba Eledumare, Wa gbo're wa" is a vibrant Yoruba offertory hymn that calls the congregation to bring their gifts before the Creator. The title itself is a direct plea to God the Father, asking Him to accept the offerings of His children. From the opening tenor solo to the lively full-choir chorus, the piece captures the joyful, rhythmic spirit of a Nigerian Catholic offertory procession, where the faithful dance forward to present their bread, wine, and thanksgiving.

The lyrics are deeply rooted in traditional Yoruba praise, addressing God as "Arinurode olumọran ọkan"—the One who sees both the inside and the outside, the ultimate knower of hearts. As the choir sings "Awa mu ọrẹ wa wa o" (We have brought our gifts), it becomes a communal prayer. The verses ask that our sacrifices be accepted and that we do not lose the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is a wonderful choice for the presentation of gifts, blending bright harmonies with a profound sense of reverence and petition for God's blessing.
