Do You Believe In One God

"Do You Believe In One God" is a vibrant, call-and-response setting of the Catholic Creed, often sung during the renewal of baptismal promises or as the Profession of Faith during Mass. The arrangement captures the communal nature of belief, opening with a direct, questioning call from the cantor or bass line, which is immediately met by the choir's firm, unified answer: "Yes, I believe." This back-and-forth structure mirrors the traditional liturgical dialogue of Baptism and the Easter Vigil, making the act of professing the faith feel active and deeply personal.

The verses walk step-by-step through the core mysteries of the Christian faith, from God the Creator to the incarnation, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and finally to the Holy Spirit and the promise of eternal life. By breaking the Nicene Creed into rhythmic, rhyming stanzas, the composer makes these profound theological truths highly accessible for the congregation. It is a staple in many Nigerian parishes for its engaging melody and the joyful, confident way it allows the faithful to declare what they hold true, culminating in a triumphant "Amen, Alleluia."
