Egbe Bia Raen Nosi Jesu

This sheet brings together two distinct pieces that serve different moments in the Catholic Mass. The first, "Egbe Bia Raen Nosi Jesu," is a reverent Communion hymn sung in the Esan language. Its title translates to "Body and Blood of Jesus," drawing the congregation into a deep reflection on the Eucharistic mystery. The gentle, moderato tempo allows the choir to lead the faithful in a prayerful reception of the sacrament, asking for spiritual cleansing and joy as they approach the altar.

The second piece, "Go out to the whole world," shifts the mood entirely. Set in English, it is a vibrant, rhythmic call to mission, perfectly suited for the Recessional or Dismissal. Drawing its lyrics from the Psalms, it commands the choir and congregation to proclaim God's goodness and eternal love to all nations.

Together, these two pieces capture the dual movement of the liturgy: gathering intimately to receive Christ, and then being sent forth to share that light. Choirs will find the solfa notation accessible, making it easy to transition from the solemnity of Communion to the joyful departure at the end of Mass.
